When vdpau is active you only should have: VDPAU-BOB, BOB and Temporal
If it's not active, you should have: BOB, Deinterlace, Deinterlace (HALF), Weave and Blend

VDPAU-BOB does something special, you should avoid that as it renders to a PBO.

PBO, what does the stands for?

For Mepeg2 streans I have: BOB, Deinterlace, Deinterlace (HALF), Weave and Blend
For mpeg4 streams(and hitting "o" on keyboard I get "ff-h264-vdpau"): VDPAU-BOB, BOB and Temporary (my translation from Danish). Hence, I assume it is as you jugest it should be!

I set the settings as recommended:
System ->Video->Acceleration:
VDPAU: On
Prefer VDPAU Mixer: ON
VAAPI: off

I get a core dump when I try to play video. This is the log:
$ cat ~/kodi_crashlog-20141205_184103.log | pastebinit
http://paste.ubuntu.com/9388904/

When I turn off "Prefer VDPAU Mixer", I don't get a crash. But I get a green screen, with working sound. Video is all green, subtitles are shown. When I go out to the menus the green screen blinks off and on.
My info is below,
thanks in advance.

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

You are running 10.1.0 packages of mesa which have a bug, in short: your ubuntu is not up to date.

Besides that: You are running the same AD10 I used for VDPAU testing and development, so it should work.
Make sure to set UMA size to 512 MB in Bios.

**fritsch** · (This post was last modified: 2014-12-06, 09:58 by fritsch.)

Ouh and besides that, you have 10.5.0 mesa packages installed, which are fully not supported! Those are mixed with 10.4.0 packages and obviously with your 10.1.0 default installation.

-> Reinstall xbmcbuntu / ubuntu 14.04.1 and only get all standard updates.

Edit: To complete that: It's crashing in the vdpau drivers -> nothing we can do about it.

Hello,

I have problem with VDPAU in kodi 14.0-RC2 Git:35b4f38.

Please help me.
Thank you in advance.

Mesa 10.5 is segfaulting.

You have a mesa problem. Don't use bleeding edge, use 10.1.3 that is provided with Ubuntu by default.

locomot1f · 2014-12-08, 03:42

... i had the same thing.

you'll have to purge the ppa:

Code:
ppa-purge ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa

and then downgrade your mesa:

Code:
apt-get reinstall mesa-utils linux-firmware mesa-vdpau-drivers

Bitstream audio still not working
Some receivers deny Bitstream Audio for everything not 60hz. In that case disable Adjust Refreshrate to match Video and also set the Sync Playback to Display to Audio Clock.

This is nonsense. If this was be true, then BD Players cant Play 24p Stuff with HD-Audio.
I have a new Board and I cant play 24p Movies with HD-Audio. I disable passthrough an play Multichannel PCM. With my old Board HD Audio with 24p works fine on the same Receiver. On the same Board with Windows I heared is this no problem too.
--> any drivers are wrong, not the Receiver

**fritsch** · 2014-12-08, 12:19

Quite harsh words when speaking for all receivers in the world.

Why did I say the above: I hooked up my Zotac AD10 which was used to implement the AMD DTS-HD support to a Marantz AVR and it's working fine no matter what resolution, refresh rate. Another user with the very same Hardware (zotac AD10), the absolute same drivers hooked up an Onkyo AVR and that device did not make any sound with 24hz, but only in 60hz.

Looking at current receiver situation and other hardware, e.g. Intel with Pioneer or Denon -> no Audio in pcm mode when output is 60hz.

So much about nonsense ...

You don't even know exactly about what happens on windows. You don't make facts at all ...

Therefore: I can quite proof what I said above, if the error now is within the drivers or some picky receivers that need workarounds is quite open.

Can the other user play Movies when a BD-Player ist connected to their Receiver with HD-Sound?
I have a Onkyo AVR too. Samsung BD Player 24p HD-Sounds works fine, Biostar A-350 Mainboard works fine on this Receiver. But with the same harddisk installation with my new Board Biostar A68N-5000 does 24p + HD Sound not work. --> this ist not the Receiver Wink

Maybe the combination Chipset with drivers are wrong

**fritsch** · 2014-12-08, 14:04

E-350 and A86N-5000 use different drivers and as it works with one but not with the other, I also suspect a driver issue in your case.

Have you tried kernel 3.18 yet?
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mai....18-vivid/ <- any news?

Get the _all, generic_image, and generic_headers for amd64 and install the debs.

You might need to update your linux-firmware (via http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/ma...38_all.deb) before.
