Linux Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto)
Yeah, I think I just found that: https://github.com/FernetMenta/xbmc/pull/197

Let's see. This part of the code is really new.

Start from scratch, please.

You are missing glinterop activated mesa and have a borked installation

If sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-radeon makes it work you have luck :-) You are currently running VESA.

nope no luck.. i had mesa 3.0 in some time but it didn't show any of the vdpau or vsync options in xbmc so it didn't work.. Oh why did i started to update working rig Big Grin i have other server stuff in this machine so starting from scratch is whole day of work Sad but i guess i have no choice.

btw i deleted all old xorg confs and fglrx confs and drivers but it still shows that xorg tries to download them?

He is a better person than you because he answered the question? Your lmgtfy didn't pull up anything useful, let alone the first post. All of those posts state "sudo service lightdm restart" which is what I was used to. But this How-To doesn't use lightdm so I wasn't sure. But thanks for your input I guess...

Hi, a few hours ago I installed the following description of an AMD E350 motherboard's XBMC. The fourth step, the options in the menu are not visible (vdpau, vsync, sync method, etc.).
This would be a compile error?

update: yes, "advanced settings", I found
Make sure you have enabled advanced or expert settings (lower left in the settings menu)
You need to switch to advance settings.

I wonder if the next XBMCbuntu release is including this fix?
No.

In the latest version of XBMC installed from your ppa repository some plugins (i.e. hulu) don't work correctly. The error I get in the logs is

Quote: ERROR: EXCEPTION Thrown (PythonToCppException) : -->Python callback/script returned the following error<--
- NOTE: IGNORING THIS CAN LEAD TO MEMORY LEAKS!
Error Type: <type 'exceptions.TypeError'>
Error Contents: Failed to convert to input type to either a std:Confusedtring or a std::vector<(XBMCAddon::xbmcgui::InfoLabelStringOrTuple)>

It seems to be an instance of a bug introduced by this post
https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/commit/820a...0adf6c1cb0

I don't know if there is a bug report already open or if this bug was fixed in the main repo

Other than that, the app is working great on my AMD e-450. Thanks a lot!
That's by intention. The plugin needs to be fixed.

Edit: Other words. It was not intended to break addons, but it as xbmc is in alpha state now, the API is likely to change, therefore plugins need to be adjusted.

@FernetMenta,

just updated my XBMC, and it removed xbmc, and upgraded xbmc-bin.
now everything is broken.... so sad.... Sad
