Mesa Gallium3D Pipe-Video Has Landed

Do you have any artifacts?

The video quality looks really good for an MPEG2.

On a more general note, I also got playback working with vlc using va-api->vdpau. I just had to build the package from splitted-desktop and create a symlink.

$ ln -s /usr/lib/dri/vdpau_drv_video.so /usr/lib/dri/r600_drv_video.so

$ export VDPAU_DRIVER=r600; vainfo
libva: libva version 0.32.0
libva: va_getDriverName() returns 0
libva: Trying to open /usr/lib/dri/r600_drv_video.so
libva: va_openDriver() returns 0
vainfo: VA API version: 0.32
vainfo: Driver version: Splitted-Desktop Systems VDPAU backend for VA-API - 0.7.3

vdpau does work on evergreen (HD5870) but it displays only artifacts

My HD5670 also work, but with artifacts, I can't access the URL however, so I'm not sure if it's the same problem?

Deathsimple: Where do you want bug reports about this filed, in the driver subsection or against Mesa core?

My HD5670 also work, but with artifacts, I can't access the URL however, so I'm not sure if it's the same problem?

It's the same problem and my evergreen (juniper/hd5770) has the same problem:


I think every eg+ hardware has this problem.

I can't access the URL however

I'm sorry, if you are too far from Italy sometimes there are problems with load balancing.
You are not the first one, tomorrow I will disable load balancing for the webserver.
Anyway yes, it's the same corruption, with R600_TILING=1 it's somehow better but still horrific.

xine and R300 / XvMC appear to be working (with -V xxmc)

So I wrote the full path to the libXvMCr300.so library into /etc/X11/XvMCConfig, and this what xine is now saying with the "-V xxmc" video plugin:

video_out_xxmc: using Xv port 63 from adaptor Radeon Textured Video for hardware colour space conversion and scaling.
video_out_xxmc: bicubic filtering mode = 2
video_out_xxmc: port attribute XV_BRIGHTNESS (5) value is -138

video_out_xxmc: port attribute XV_HUE (2) value is 34
video_out_xxmc: port attribute XV_GAMMA (12) value is 1000
video_out_xxmc: XvMC extension present.
video_out_xxmc: Found 1 XvMC surface types
video_out_xxmc: Surface type 0: Max size: 2048 2048.
video_out_xxmc: Surface type 0: Max subpic size: 2048 2048.
video_out_xxmc: Surface type 0: Found 3 XvMC subpicture types
video_out_xxmc: Surface type 0: Detected and using IA44 subpicture type.
video_out_xxmc: this adaptor supports the yuy2 format.
video_out_xxmc: this adaptor supports the yv12 format.
video_out_xxmc: Unichrome CPU saving is off.

The video plays without artifacts - I assume XvMC is doing something :-).

The "-V xvmc" video output plugin crashes horribly - but that's a xine bug.

No luck with R300 XvMC and mplayer

Although xine seems to work with R300's XvMC, mplayer does not:

Exiting... (End of file)

So something's not quite right.

Only MPEG and MPEG2 media are playing for me and they are both terribly distorted

That's on an RS780 aka Radeon 4200

xine and R300 / XvMC fail with DVB recordings

Trying to watch DVB recordings with "xine -V xxmc" results in an almost entirely green video window. So that's a "fail" ;-).

[FireBurn]

For those using xxmc using xine remember that this is the xvmc with a nice fall back to xv where it doesn't work
