Unfortunately it still doesn't work.

I am now on Mesa 22.1.0-devel (git-a5fa7e0 2022-02-24 focal-oibaf-ppa).

Try updating again and reboot the system. Does it change? If not, please post output of:

Code:

lsb_release -a
dpkg -l | grep libva
dpkg -l | grep mesa

I am now on Mesa 22.1.0-devel (git-f458c7f 2022-02-25 focal-oibaf-ppa) and the issue is still as described. Here are the requested information. Whatever, maybe this is because I am on an dual GPU system.

Thanks, I'd suggest to open an issue in libva or mesa (then report here the link), I don't think there is anything else to look at...

**lorn10** · 26 February 2022, 12:06 PM

Okay, thanks, will do that when I find the time.

**oibaf** · 27 April 2022, 06:04 AM

Packages are now available also for Ubuntu kinetic/22.10.
Packages for focal/20.04 and impish/21.10 are now considered obsolete, make sure to upgrade to jammy/22.04.

Thank you. But in new mesa build there no video codecs and must be enabled before compilation
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/...requests/15258

Please enable it.

Hi all! It looks that we have a new little building problem, see Mesa bug #6403, that one is effectively caused by !15258. The proposed solution is, I quote developer Mike Lothian:

You'll have to get oibaf to pass in -Dvideo-codecs=h264dec,h264enc,h265dec,h265enc,vc1dec to their builds or do it yourself

Having issues since this morning.

OBS was suddenly barfing out the following error and won't let me stream via vaapi acceleration:

Code:

08:26:59.145: [FFMPEG VAAPI encoder: 'streaming_h264'] Failed to open VAAPI codec: Function not implemented

After trying a lot of things and failing miserably, I did a vainfo and was terrified at what I found:

Code:

libva info: VA-API version 1.14.0
libva info: User environment variable requested driver 'radeonsi'
libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/radeonsi_drv_video.so
libva info: Found init function __vaDriverInit_1_14
libva info: va_openDriver() returns 0
vainfo: VA-API version: 1.14 (libva 2.14.0)
vainfo: Driver version: Mesa Gallium driver 22.2.0-devel for AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT (navi10, LLVM 14.0.0, DRM 3.42, 5.15.0-27-lowlatency)
vainfo: Supported profile and entrypoints
VAProfileMPEG2Simple : VAEntrypointVLD
VAProfileMPEG2Main : VAEntrypointVLD
VAProfileJPEGBaseline : VAEntrypointVLD
VAProfileVP9Profile0 : VAEntrypointVLD
VAProfileVP9Profile2 : VAEntrypointVLD
VAProfileNone : VAEntrypointVideoProc

The entire block of H264 entries are missing. Aside from that VC1 and HEVC is also missing.

For the record here are the entries after I downgraded the driver package to the Ubuntu stock:

Code:

libva info: VA-API version 1.14.0
libva info: User environment variable requested driver 'radeonsi'
libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/radeonsi_drv_video.so
libva info: Found init function __vaDriverInit_1_14
libva info: va_openDriver() returns 0
vainfo: VA-API version: 1.14 (libva 2.14.0)
vainfo: Driver version: Mesa Gallium driver 22.0.1 for AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT (navi10, LLVM 13.0.1, DRM 3.42, 5.15.0-27-lowlatency)
vainfo: Supported profile and entrypoints
VAProfileMPEG2Simple : VAEntrypointVLD
VAProfileMPEG2Main : VAEntrypointVLD
VAProfileVC1Simple : VAEntrypointVLD
VAProfileVC1Main : VAEntrypointVLD

VAProfileH264ConstrainedBaseline: VAEntrypointVLD
VAProfileH264ConstrainedBaseline: VAEntrypointEncSlice
VAProfileH264Main : VAEntrypointVLD
VAProfileH264Main : VAEntrypointEncSlice
VAProfileH264High : VAEntrypointVLD
VAProfileH264High : VAEntrypointEncSlice
VAProfileHEVCMain : VAEntrypointVLD
VAProfileHEVCMain : VAEntrypointEncSlice
VAProfileHEVCMain10 : VAEntrypointVLD
VAProfileHEVCMain10 : VAEntrypointEncSlice
VAProfileJPEGBaseline : VAEntrypointVLD
VAProfileVP9Profile0 : VAEntrypointVLD
VAProfileVP9Profile2 : VAEntrypointVLD
VAProfileNone : VAEntrypointVideoProc

I googled and got a nasty answer about patent and licensing. Ugh.

Any plans to restore H264, VC1 and HEVC support to the VAAPI drivers? This is annoying, I need H264 support for OBS.

**oibaf** · 02 May 2022, 08:12 AM

Launchpad no longer releases freed space since some days and I cannot upload packages anymore:

Repository size:
33.1 GiB (100.00%) of 32.0 GiB

I also deleted some packages (backports of supertuxkart and warzone2100) but still no change in free space. Hopefully they'll fix it soon.

I'd suggest to use free codecs anyway.
