Hi, thanks for the work and this how-do. It's very helpful. Now I have two silly questions.
First, my current system uses XVBA (installed from xbmc-xvba) under Ubuntu 12.04. If I want to continue getting the latest update of XBMC, I will have to switch to Radeon OSS with vdpau, right? I don't want to rebuild my HTPC from scratch again, would it be possible to provide some tips (or even a hot-to) about switching from XVBA to new OSS with vdpau?
I can imagine what I need to do are
1. Remove glfx
2. Uninstall my currenst installed XBMC
2. Partially follow this how-to to install new XBMC with vdpau support.
Do I miss any things?
Second, if I don't want to upgrade my XBMC (to vdpau) immendiately, what's will happen to my current system? Since XVBA has been deprecated and xbmc-xvba (
https://launchpad.net/~wsnipex/+archive/xbmc-xvba) is not updated anymore, I won't receive any new update for XBMC in the feature, right? Actually, my system just have some troubles (can not properly play mp4 and mkv files) after receiving the latest update of XBMC from xbmc-xvba today. Is it relevant?
Thanks.
