Error reproducing .ts files in VLC

Hello,
I'm have problems reproducing .ts files in VLC, the image gets pixelated and there is no audio, i tried with other player (smplayer) and it works fine, when executed from the terminal it shows some errors related with "libva".

The error I get is the following:

Re: Error reproducing .ts files in VLC

Disable HW acceleration (on the codecs settings page), or try to find out why HW acceleration appears to have so many issues. What kind of hardware are we talking about?

Re: Error reproducing .ts files in VLC

Thank you for responding, I'm using an Intel Core i7-7700HQ, GTX 1050 and Intel HD Graphics, I disabled the hardware acceleration and still the same.
Also I'm using the nvidia proprietary drivers via nvida-utils, in a previous installation i had the same config and works fine.
