libva 1.x works fine under X11, but not Wayland. I had to use vdpau with mpv under Wayland. Make sure your VLC is really accelerated and doesn't fall back on non-accelerated code path.

Not only it breaks API, the new API was designed with Intel hardware in mind, i.e. makes assumptions that may be not valid for other hardware. You can get the story here: https://github.com/intel/libva/pull/125
Originally posted by xpris View PostTo be precise and honest. For years I use libva (vaapi from 1.X branch) on AMD hardware and work well. Now I have installed in system libva2 and looks like it work also well. Just trying it with VLC3 and not see issue.

So will AMD switch from VDPAU to VAAPI, or is there no real preference and one can use both at will? (speaking of the open-source Radeon driver).
What about the new way/api for hardware decoding/encoding: v4l2 mem2mem that has become the new defacto standard for (new) SOCs?
Gstreamer, ffmpeg and Kodi do have support for it.
It sounds like that would/could be the perfect solution for the future?
