VA-API Gallium3D State Tracker Added Back To Mesa

[dungeon]

Is this State Tracker now "XBMC" Compatible? I have the UVD1 and UVD2 Blocks in mind

You mean KC as Kodi Compatible Probably works, only someone needs to try it on those 5-7 years old hardware

For video decoding and playback, VA-API is not better, neither on paper nor in practice. Especially the presentation layer of VA-API is extremely lacking.

There's just one thing: VA-API supports video encoding while VDPAU doesn't. That's probably why this implementation is being worked on.

vaapi state tracker doesn't work with the mpv player.

I tested it with mpv 0.6 it works for me on Kabini .

Do you have that lib on that path Probably you got gallium_drv_video.so , so just link to it as radeonsi_drv_video.so

I already tried to symlink it but it didn't help.

Not sure probably something with path or deps... trying it now on 32bit OS works there too

What vainfo says? ldd /usr/lib64/va/drivers/radeonsi_drv_video.so ?

Recomping somehow helped, vaapi works now.
