i915_error_state untruncated
Sorry, i915_error_state attachment was from another report. The problem persists with SNA driver. >VLC: version 2.0.0-6~ppa1 It stutters on my SNB too, but according to the link, it also applies to AMD cards due to VLC's inability to direct rendering. So, it seems to be not Intel-related in any kind. Why don't you try it with GLX output turned off(use XVideo) or just with mplayer-vaapi -vo vaapi:gl -va vaapi? This is completely usable even with high bitrate files. http://trac.videolan.org/vlc/ticket/4405 http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=86168 >00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09) Will you please try the latest intel-vaapi driver and see whether the issue still exists? Thanks. > Will you please try the latest intel-vaapi driver and see whether the issue still exists? Tested with 1.2.1: 1. In VLC with enabled VA-API now there is no stuttering. Now video just freeze after playback start (audio continue to playback). After rewind player display few new decoding frames (from position where we rewind) and video again freeze. So VLC support simply broken with 1.2.1 - I need to fill separate bugreport? 2. In mpv video is not stutter, but seriously lag behind sound, like there is not enough compute power to decode video. Judging from CPU load while video playback (6% on Intel Celeron U3400) options that used for mpv launch ("--vo=vaapi --hwdec=vaapi") and mpv logs, hardware decoder is in use, however with software decoder result is much better (less lag). Acer Aspire 753-U341ss, BIOS 1.24 Intel Celeron U3400 OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) Ironlake Mobile Kubuntu 14.04 x86_64, Linux 3.13rc6 libva and libva-intel-vaapi-driver 1.2.1 X.Org Server 1.14.5 libdrm 2.4.50 Mesa 10.0.1 VLC 2.1.2, mpv 0.3.0, KDE 4.12 (compositing was disabled for this test) Sample video: http://mediafire.com/?tdukvcaj87nivn7 If you need additional logs, please let me know. With latest builds of the libva, driver, Mesa, kernel, VLC 2, etc. video doesn't freeze in VLC anymore. But hardware acceleration of 720p and 1080p videos is still much slower than software, not only in VLC but also in mpv. After additional testing I find out that 720p can be played back using hardware decoder, but only in mpv and only in fullscreen mode. I confirm that 720p h264 video plays by HW decoder smoothly but 1080p not. Vlc and mpv can't play smoothly not 20 Mbit nor 10 Mbit 1080p streams by HW decoder. You should use "--vo vaapi" to play back the movie when you use MPV. I use vo=vaapi in mpv config instead of launch option. 1080p issue is reproducible with this config option (hwdec=vaapi is also here obviously). Haihao, please download video from mediafire link (comment 10). This video can be decoded via DXVA but VAAPI decoding is stutter. That was tested on same hardware - in my case Acer Aspire 753-U341ss with Intel Celeron U3400. I failed to download the sample video from the link you mentioned. Do you see similar log below when using vaapi ? libva info: VA-API version 0.38.0 libva info: va_getDriverName() returns 0 libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/i965_drv_video.so libva info: Found init function __vaDriverInit_0_38 > I failed to download the sample video from the link you mentioned.

ILK was released a few years ago, I have no ILK machine on hand, Hope I can find a ILK machine to reproduce this issue. I can confirm this on an old thinkpad x201 with a core i5 520M. Actually, I had the same issue on an older core 2 duo with gma 4500 and the g45-h264 branch, as described here : https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Intel_graphics#H.264_decoding_on_GMA_4500 The only difference was that the stuttering at 1080p was worse. Maybe is it related to this bug ? My guess is that with GMA4500 issues with HD playback is hardware limitation, but in case of Ironlake 1080p hardware decoding via DXVA does work in Windows (but in my tests for some reason only in Windows Media Player, not in MPC-HC) so there is something different here. If I recall correctly, the G45 was able to decode h264 1080p on Windows. And it was supposed to be ported to linux : http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=OTQ1NA But it never was fully usable. Since the symptoms are almost the same (low cpu usage, usable at 720p, choppy at 1080p), I thought it might have been the same issue. Of course, it was just a wild guess. This much older platform has limited support. G45 works perfectly fine with h264 vaapi accel (with the g45 branch) even on 1080p on the condition that the preallocated vram is sufficiently high. Many bios select the default of 32M on g45 which is unusable for h265 decoding. With 256M if your bios allow to change it, (in the GGC pci config register) decoding has no issues at all. I suspect this might also be the case for Ironlake, so the won't fix is good since it is an issue only the bios can solve. Arthur, please open attached dmesg and find line starting with 1.146097, as you can see here there is enough VRAM. I find it strange that AMD somehow find money to suport their customers up to very first UVD with H.264 support, and even get it work more stable than with proprietary Windows driver. And Intel with more money and bigger team can't do this. This is astonishing. For what it is worth, on my ILK system I experience smooth play back of the above 1080p Sintel Trailer with vaapi. $ wget https://download.blender.org/durian/trailer/sintel_trailer-1080p.mp4 --2016-11-05 22:48:22-- https://download.blender.org/durian/trailer/sintel_trailer-1080p.mp4 Resolving download.blender.org (download.blender.org)... 82.94.213.221 Connecting to download.blender.org (download.blender.org)|82.94.213.221|:443... connected.

For what it's worth I can play it just fine too, I believe it was fixed by: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91254 Nevertheless it's still unusable because the video hangs up eventually (a few minutes usually and I think 20 at most), it just stops playing and requires video player restart. There still has to be some inappropriate video hardware handling or the hardware is just crap. |

VLC: version 2.0.0-6~ppa1 Playing videos with VLC player with video accelerator option turned on results in a noticeable stuttering. Switching the acceleration off gets rid of the issue. Tested on Bluray 1080p rips, both 8bit and 10bit. I have attached vainfo output for good measure.
