Xorg.0.log
For the records, we have the exact same problem with nouveau. I can make vdpauinfo work with two patches, but I haven't looked at making anything play yet! one patch is for libvdpau and one patch for mesa. Created attachment 82970 [details] [review] mesa patch to make vl pick the right device Created attachment 82971 [details] [review] libvdpau patch to pick the correct driver. Thanks airlied, it works for me. However, on KWin, I have to minimize and then maximize again the video in order to have the video rolling. Otherwise, I only see an empty/black window. I've tried both patches. It seems like everything works pretty well. So vdpainfo now shows the supported formats. The 1080p video plays without any problem (I also use kwin, xrender in particular) in mplayer. Top showed decrease in CPU usage while using VDPAU. Dave, thank you for the fast fix. Sounds like we can close the bug as soon as the proposed patches are upstream. @Hohahiu: Do you also have to minimize and maximize the video in order to see an image? I applied Dave's patch to libvdpau: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~aplattner/libvdpau/commit/?id=22a2f15f3e5f36641f72211da9f786b6778d0481 I'll make an 0.7 release to pick up this and a file descriptor leak fix soon, unless something else crops up before then. @Martin Peres, I've done a little bit of investigation. So if I don't use any desktop effects in kwin, the video on mplayer+VDPAU is choppy and not visible sometimes (except fullscreen). Also in this case I cannot exit fullscreen. Basically double click doesn't have any effect as well as alt+tab. Or to be more precise it seems like a window is minimized but the video is on top of desktop. If I use desktop effects+Xrender everything works like a charm. The desktop effects+OpenGL render behave exactly like you described in your message. By the way I use KDE 4.10.5 (OpenSUSE 12.3). Is it possible that this issue a bug in kwin? Which options do you use in KDE? @Hohahiu: I always use GL, so I guess we are seeing consistency here. This is good. We should try with other compositors and see if it helps. would these patches work for a "muxed" hybrid laptop as well ? Otherwise, what would be needed to have libvdpau automatically pick up the right driver on muxed systems ? |
