Good time of the day.


Using mplayer2 for playing video files I get this error always:

Failed to open VDPAU backend libvdpau_r300.so: cannot open shared
object file: No such file or directory [vdpau] Error when calling
vdp_device_create_x11: 1

In order to solve it I tried to find a package that has

libvdpau_r300.so

file but w/ no luck.

Do You have any idea how I can make use of VDPAU w/ mplayer2 on my
system (testing, video ATI X1100)?


Thanks for Your time.

Try this thread - I don't know if it helps.

Your post comes top of the list with a search on 'libvdpau_r300 debian',
which tells you something or nothing.

I rather liked

http://vsingleton.blogspot.co.uk/2010/02/failed-to-open-vdpau-backend.html

partly because the solution is simple and partly because I like the name
'Vernon'.

See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=656719.

You have to build mesa 8.0 or later with "--enable-vdpau" yourself.
However, it's probably not really worth it, since the mesa drivers
currently only implement the "P" part of VDPAU, while the more
interesting "D" part is only possible with the Nvidia blob.

A few weeks ago I tried vdpau with nouveau, and while it works, CPU load
is not any lower than with other backends.

Besides performance I try to remove CPU 100% while paused on
video file - problem .

Can You prompt me how I can find out the plans on mesa - whither his/her
maintainer would compile his/her package w/ that support -
particularly and any other package of interest in general?

This should not happen regardless of the backend used. Do you have this
problem in other video players as well?

Sorry, I have trouble parsing that.

I know, but so it is.

W/ other players - I have installed vlc, and it worked OK.

I meant, Do You a web page that monitors maintainers' plans on a
package - like the particular one (mesa) - whether they gonna compile
vdpau support?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I believe that VDPAU is specific to nvidia cards, so your ATI wouldn't
be supported.
