I'm running Gentoo linux amd64 with radeon r300 driver. From version 12.0.1 VDPAU is broken. I also have tried mesa-git, but bug is still there. VDPAU works good with mesa 11.2.2 witch i use right now. Here is the output from mplayer: https://bpaste.net/show/53e11a71da14
Can you bisect?
(In reply to Michel Dänzer from comment #1) > Can you bisect? Sorry, I don't understand what you mean.
Bisecting means you try to figure out what patch introduced this bug. E.g. you know that 11.2.2 work and 12.0.1 is broken. So you checkout the source code from git and issue "git bisect start mesa-12.0.1 mesa-11.2.2". Now git has the list of changes between 11.2.2 and 12.0.1, so it jumps into the middle of that list of changes. You then compile mesa and see if this version still works. If it works you say "git bisect good" and git will jump another quarter to the end of the list, if it doesn't work you say "git bisect bad" and git will jump a quarter to the beginning of the list. This repeats until you figured out which commit caused the problem.
I have cloned mesa-git and i'm trying to do it, but i get only this output: $ git bisect start mesa-12.0.1 mesa-11.2.2 Previous HEAD position was 4cd5e5b... nouveau: update the Makefile.sources list Switched to branch 'master' Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/master'. Bisecting: a merge base must be tested [4cd5e5b48e24a8b8ff7255022208d3e5fe6557d8] nouveau: update the Makefile.sources list
When I do $ git bisect good i have "12 steps" and i don't see anything that can cause this bug.

Now you need to build and install Mesa and see if the problem persists. If you never build and installed Mesa before I suggest you just checkout version 11.2.2 (e.g. run "git checkout mesa-11.2.2") and try that first.
Enter something like "git bisect howto" in your favourite web search engine to find a document explaining how to use it.
FIXED In mesa-13.0.1.
