Re: [Request]MPlayer with vdpau support?

Could you at least fix the mplayer nogui build it seem to require a lot more than the package requires.

I just stole the PKGBUILD from this thread, but I'll look into it.

Re: [Request]MPlayer with vdpau support?

And by the way a new nvidia beta is out which brings alot of vdpau fixes.

But I got mplayer with vdpau to compile but when playing 1080p video I see no difference according to htop when it comes to cpu load.

The mplayer stuff gives me twice as much as cpu load as without vdpau. Using the patched xine results in 5% usage at max.

Where is the point with this if you get even more cpu usage?

Re: [Request]MPlayer with vdpau support?

Well me for it looks like mplayer doesn't use vdpau at all, the exact same load as without vdpau, how can I check if it's using it at all?

Well I was right, I didn't compile with vdpau support... now it works about 50-60 % lower cpu load when playing h264 video:)

Re: [Request]MPlayer with vdpau support?

Hi guys

I just want to share with you the PKGBUILD I've used to build this morning my mplayer-vdpau-svn package, consider that i've already installed on my system the 180.18 nvidia beta drivers.. and mplayer is patched with the latest vdpau patch (available since yesterday)

You are missing --enable-vdpau.

Looks like vdpau doesn't work with matroska container yet?

Re: [Request]MPlayer with vdpau support?

even if --enable-vdpau is not set, I can play without any issues .mkv (matroska) files with no effect on the cpu, if I use the options -vo vdpau -vc ffh264vdpau.. without those options, the cpu is occuped, about 30-40%

Those options just slows the video playback down extremly.

I don't have any problem either with vdpau h264 (mkv, ts..) and mpeg2 tested with patched mplayer and xine.
Another good news vlc player is getting vdpau support

Roberth: try this forum http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=14 regarding that error.

Re: [Request]MPlayer with vdpau support?

It's here http://rafb.net/p/TpboNR42.html
I think there wont be a prebuilt x86_64 version soon although I'm the kdemod-legacy maintainer for this architecture. Since the system b0rked I didnt find the time and motivation to set up another one (should only take 30-60 min, though).
