My XBMC keeps on crashing when I try to play video files in various formats. I hope someone can help me make sense of the problem.

I ran XBMC from terminal and this is what I get:

jorgen@Mediedator:~$ sudo xbmc

- disable vaapi
- either disable vdpau or install neened drivers correctly

Thanks! Disabling vaapi didn't work but disabling VDPAU seems to solve the issue. Any hint on where I can find the needed drivers?

sudo apt-get install mesa-drivers-vdpau vdpauinfo
vdpauinfo | pastebinit

then retry with vdpau enabled.

Awesome! I had to rearrange the "mesa-drivers-vdpau"-part but now it works smoothly.

Many thanks for helping out.

For the history: it's mesa-vdpau-drivers :-)

Nice, then set it to solved.
