VAAPI Lucid strange problem - the_bis - 2010-05-19 Hi, I'd like to have VAAPI support (I have ATI Radeon 4550 and ATI proprietary drivers v. 8.723 in Ubuntu Lucid) with XBMC. I also have libva installed with dev package (v. 0.31.0-1+sds13) I compile latest SVN version (already tested v. 30318) and after configure I get: Code: [...] Than I run "make" + "make install". I check also ldd command output: Code: linux-gate.so.1 => (0x00519000) but when a run XBMC a have no HW acceleration. Digging in the log file: Code: 21:41:25 T:2891287408 M:1003679744 NOTICE: Creating video codec with codec id: 28 Where is my mistake? I'm sure it has to work... Please help! Thanks, the_bis - my1997golf - 2010-05-21 Try the daily SVN as there appeared to be some sort of a problem with earlier builds. The bug related to an error in "configure.in". I have similar hardware to yours (Radeon 4550HD) and r30362 works fine. - the_bis - 2010-05-21 my1997golf Wrote:Try the daily SVN as there appeared to be some sort of a problem with earlier builds.

Yes, it works! xbmc-svn - r30387 libva1 - v. 0.31.0-1+sds13 libva-dev - v. 0.31.0-1+sds13 Thanks, the_bis - darude - 2010-06-20 Hey guys, I am having a similar problem as the thread starter. I got a ATI Radeon HD 5450 and wanted to get VAAPI working with XBMC on Ubuntu Lucid. cam shots of the screen: I am not really sure if its really using the gpu to decode the material, but I think it is, because of the low cpu consumption. When I tried to decode a h264 file without vaapi there was about 30/60% pct load on a AMD Athlon 3800 x2. I compiled xbmc from the sources, able see the VAAPI & VDPAU options in the video section, but I can't choose the VAAPI Render Path explicitly. When I set it to Auto Detect the output of a 1080p video is completely messed up. The same with the other Render Paths. To build xbmc with vaapi I used this little howto cause couldn't find something useful one the xbmc forums http://www.multimedia4linux.de/htpc/ati_video.html and downloaded/installed all .debs but the on for mplayer. Additionally I installed the latest Catalayst from ATi (10.6) I downloaded the latest release of xbmc via svn as proposed on the main download page. I really would like to be able to play HD movies fluently. Has someone help or a yet not known forum post which points out that problem? Thank you very much! specs: Code: xbmc - Revision 31256 Code: libva: libva version 0.31.0-sds6 configure output: Code: ------------------------ - Maletor - 2010-08-14 Same problem. Looks very similar to your screen darude. I think hardware decoding works in mPlayer outside of XBMC. I hope this issue gets resolved soon. I'm trying sudo apt-get build-dep mplayer now. We'll see if that works. Also, my log can be found here. http://gist.github.com/524693 - Maletor - 2010-08-14 It works now. I did ./configure --enable-vaapi and that's it. I have no idea if that did it or not though. This looks like a cool project. http://www.splitted-desktop.com/~gbeauchesne/gstreamer-vaapi/ |
