Hi all,<br>
<br>
I've VAAPI libraries installed (Splitted Desktop ones) and vainfo shows<br>
the following:<br>
<br>
libva: libva version 0.32.0<br>
libva: User requested driver 'xvba'<br></div>
libva: Trying to open /usr/lib/va/drivers/xvba_drv_*<u></u>*video.so<div class="im"><br>
libva: va_openDriver() returns 0<br>
vainfo: VA API version: 0.32<br>
vainfo: Driver version: Splitted-Desktop Systems XvBA backend for VA-API<br>
- 0.8.0<br>
vainfo: Supported profile and entrypoints<br>
VAProfileH264High : VAEntrypointVLD<br>
VAProfileVC1Advanced : VAEntrypointVLD<br>
<br>
still when trying to create VAAPI playback profile I don't get the<br>
"VAAPI acceleration" decoder option. This is combined Mythbuntu 10.04 BE/FE<br>
with Radeon HD6570 and OpenGL painter. I have this working great on remote<br>
FE with Radeon HD6410 and OpenGL and same drivers from Splitted Desktop.<br>
The only difference is that this one is Mythfrontend on Ubuntu 12.04.<br>
<br>
Any reason why would MythTV not recognize/show vaapi options? Any<br>
troubleshooting pointers would be appreciated.<br>

This is on the frontend where VAAPI profile works. It is v0.25.2-15 one<br>
minor version behind the backend which is v0.25.2-16 but has vaapi compiled<br>
in. So which version of the backend has this working in Mythbuntu? Or I<br>
need to be on 12.04 for that?<br></div></blockquote></blockquote><div><br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

Whether you use mythbackend or mythfrontend to call --version, it will say using_vaapi if it was compiled to support VA-API. The backend doesn't need any special support for VA-API--you just have to have MythTV compiled to support it. I just had you use mythbackend to find out how your MythTV was compiled.<br>
<br>
So, you'll just have to find a version of MythTV that was compiled to support VA-API. I don't know if *buntu quit compiling in support because it's not very functional or if there's more to the story.<div class="HOEnZb">
