VAAPI Unable to Init Display - error
#1
Hey Guys,

I recently upgraded to a 13.0 (probably not the best idea, but wanted to try it out some). And since doing so, i have issues playing any video file from my library. I have never had issues playing video files (except when my library is unavailable on my NAS - which this isn't the case here). I have posted links to both teh XBMC.log and the Crash log below. The gist of the what i am seeing is below though (the part where playing a video file errors (but the log is useful to see version/hardware etc):

Code:

1) You are missing the correct libva-drivers or don't have intel hardware (yeah, nvidia hardware)
2) You are initing vdpau which produces the crash - which was fixed more than 3 months ago. Please update your xbmc.

And as far as I see - your nvidia card is not support for vdpau at all - therefore just disable VDPAU and vaapi
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.

In searching for the way to disable these, i found the following change to teh advancedsettings.xml file, is this correct:

Code:
<allowmpeg4vdpau>true</allowmpeg4vdpau> <!-- allows mpeg4 decoding with vdpau, currently broken -->
  <allowmpeg4vaapi>true</allowmpeg4vaapi> <!-- allows mpeg4 decoding with vaapi, currently broken on Nvidia cards, not implemented on Intel -->

This was this document:

http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=Advancedsettings.xml

After updating my .xml file (with these options set to 'false') and rebooting the XBMC box - attempting to play a file, this has not resolved it.

And in terms of upgrading XBMC - i ran an apt-get update/upgrade last night and am currently running 13.0.

Thanks for your continued support.

Upgrade your xbmc. You are on alpha9(!)

You GPU does not support any of those ... just disable VDPAU in the Video Playback settings.
