| Post subject: | Is VAAPI working? |
I'm trying to get the best output from an Intel based motherboard, so I have enabled VAAPI and recordings *seem* to play OK. I notice a lot of "cogging" when the camera pans quickly so I thought I'd look into the VAAPI layer. I found a command "vainfo" which is supposed to describe your environment, but when using it under SSH I get... Code: # vainfo error: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set in the environment. error: can't connect to X server! libva info: VA-API version 0.37.0 libva info: va_getDriverName() returns 0 libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/dri/i965_drv_video.so libva info: va_openDriver() returns -1 vaInitialize failed with error code -1 (unknown libva error),exit So am I using VAAPI or not? The image is the latest LinHES 8.4 with all updates applied. The computer is an ASRock Q1900 Celeron system with built-in Intel graphics. |

I think is cause your trying over SSH On my box, running VDPAU, I get the same cannot connect to X server error while using SSH. When I run Code: export DISPLAY=:0 then it works. I use that sometimes to run something from SSH and have it show up on the TV.Code: [ ~]$ vdpauinfo
vdpauinfo: cannot connect to X server [ ~]$ export DISPLAY=:0 [ ~]$ vdpauinfo display: :0 screen: 0 API version: 1 Information string: NVIDIA VDPAU Driver Shared Library 340.76 Thu Jan 22 11:28:21 PST 2015 ~~~snip boring data~~~ |

I did some more digging and found the driver I need is located in the Arch libva-intel-driver. I used pacman -S to install and VAAPI works great. I need to tell the package maintainer of my discovery, as I'll bet there are a few other Intel driver users in LinHES land... |
