@bambi73
What the status ?
Do you still intend do do some work, updates ? Continue ordered chapters ?

I'm using VAAPI on my i3 2100 build. If I use the script posted earlier, is a compile switch of --enable-vaapi or something like it (similar to vdpau) necessary?

--enable-vaapi is indeed a valid option when building FFmpeg but I'm afraid I've not experimented with it. Try it and let us know!

So, to clarify, will the updates to ffmpeg that allow XMBC to play hi10p natively be part of the final Eden release, or will this not happen until 11.1 or Frodo?

Right now, I don't have any 10 bit h264 videos to test.

Ah, okay. Well, I can cope with an external player until then.

FFmpeg compiled with VDPAU support and XBMC plays back both 8-bit and 10-bit with no issues. Haven't tested ordered chapters yet.

Sorry for the dense question.. I don't think it's been covered though.

To be frank, how the heck do I do this? That is, have XBMC use FFmpeg?

I'm anxious since it seems like Hi10p broke my audio in Eden (well, changing to pulseaudio gets me tv shows and non-Hi10p anime, but most movies don't get audio now.. odd)

Is there a relation to the topic at hand?

I could be wrong but that looks like preliminary work to force it to decode those particular h264 profiles in software mode. Without the software decoder to back this up however...
