If I see correctly you use repositories for Kubuntu 9.04, 9.10 and 10.04. Something there doesn't fit. The current driver is not ready for 10.04's Xorg anyway AFAIK.<br />Try starting with a clean set up and then use the above instructions. Trust me, it's worth it.<br /><br />Gwenole said he's gotten deinterlacing to work, too, with the driver by the way. I might update the guide once I can get it set up.D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03544666801731533511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2124831850793435411.post-46709347902441073102010-03-12T17:27:17.868+00:002010-03-12T17:27:17.868+00:00hi,

I haven't experimented with subtitles, but you may have noticed that the OSD in general does either not work (precompiled version) or work only in black (self-compiled version). Are you using the precompiled version? I assume then subtitle support is not really in it yet. You'd need a newer libva and compile a newer mplayer with it. But since the versions don't always go along well (that's why I recommend specific version), it's not easy to find working combinations. If you do find a newer working one, please let me know!D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03544666801731533511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2124831850793435411.post-56733594416080814612010-01-18T06:13:53.182+00:002010-01-18T06:13:53.182+00:00Hi,

If I have A S S enabled, VAAPI acceleration doesn't work, I get about 1-2 fps. If I use regular subtitles, mplayer crashes with a error 11. I've already posted the backtrace, etc., to the mplayer-users mailing list, but nobody even commented.<br />Thanksjbernardohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17810750518008435533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2124831850793435411.post-68142839789159767542010-01-09T10:09:48.571+00:002010-01-09T10:09:48.571+00:00Hi.

It's articles like these that let me do great things with my netbook.<br /><br />However, I've experienced a problem -- I'm missing the VA API header files that match the new version of the libva1 package. Naturally, I'm unable to install the libva-dev package from the Ubuntu repositories, since the versions do not match. This prevents me from building and installing mplayer from source, which is the method I'd really like to employ.<br /><br />Any ideas?<br /><br />-JonathanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2124831850793435411.post-42674463872550582732009-12-31T03:02:20.821+00:002009-12-31T03:02:20.821+00:00Also: Just did a complete "aptitude upgrade&q...Also: Just did a complete "aptitude upgrade".<br />I went into recovery mode and executed the make_psb.sh file again.<br />Worked fine.<br />This is awesome on so many levels!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2124831850793435411.post-38416562078672376782009-12-31T02:51:56.265+00:002009-12-31T02:51:56.265+00:00True... thanks for finding all the little details!...True... thanks for finding all the little details!D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03544666801731533511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2124831850793435411.post-28403032575944329002009-12-31T02:42:05.490+00:002009-12-31T02:42:05.490+00:00btw: for compiling the mplayer you also need libva...btw: for compiling the mplayer you also need libva-dev_0.31.0-1+sds8_i386.deb (same link as before), libdrm-dev, build-essential and subversion<br /><br />I'll do a little blog post on this later on too :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2124831850793435411.post-68557212100361367422009-12-31T02:22:23.154+00:002009-12-31T02:22:23.154+00:00That's so great!
