wsnipex has built new packages of the libva-driver-intel in his vaapi repository. That fixes the gpu hang with the Joe_Sample.mkv which resulted by non existing support for phantom frames. The new package handles those frames with less artifacts.

Code:

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:wsnipex/vaapi
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Thanks very much, again :-)

I thought i would give these updated drivers a go, now after a period playback stutters and sound drops out completely.

xbmc.log

More info. when playback crashes the kernel log reports

Code:

Aug 14 22:57:33 xbmc kernel: [  155.039778] playback write error (DMA or IRQ trouble?)
Aug 14 22:57:43 xbmc kernel: [  165.038942] playback drain error (DMA or IRQ trouble?)

How do i remove them?
