The problem I'm having now is it won't playback local files, only tracks from Spotify. Does anybody know how to fix this? (Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit)

I really need some help with an problem that I have. Would first mention that I´m a noob at this, so please keep that in mind

I have this Asrock ion 330 with a clean install of XBMCbuntu which I downloaded a couple of days ago. So far so good. vdpau is enabled so that my 1080p movies run smoothly.
But after following the guide to install spotyxbmc2 (https://github.com/akezeke/spotyxbmc2/), I´ve seem to have lost this vdpau option, and the cpu is at 100% when playing HD movies. Which is quite annoying to watch btw

Anyone have an idea how I can get this option back?

If you wish to use VDPAU decoding you will now have to change the Render Method
in Settings->Videos->Player from "Auto Detect" to "VDPAU".

Have you done this? If so i think there is an argument you can pass while configuring to include vdpau support. I'll look around and post back, but I have vdpau working on my build by default.

Edit ./configure --enable-vdpau. Like I said though, I don't think it is necessary.

Thank you for the feedback.

I have allready tried with and without the ./configure --enable-vdpau, but the VDPAU option is not there.
From the fresh XBMCbuntu installation there was a checkbox underneath the rendering method for vdpau, but this also ofcourse now gone.

Can you post the steps you are taking to compile? Maybe someone will spot something. Are you pulling from the master branch or from Eden? 32-bit or 64-bit?

$ ./bootstrap

$ sudo make install

I´m able to compile without any errors, so Spotify is running nice. Which is awesome btw. The downside is that I somehow lost vdpau, which is not that awesome.

I appreciate the help.

Code:

$ make distclean

(Cleanup)

Code:

$ git checkout remotes/origin/Eden

(Switches branch)

Code:

$ ./bootstrap

Code:

$ ./configure --enable-vdpau

Code:

$ make

Code:

$ sudo make install

(like before)
