Package: xbmc
Version: 2:11.0~git20120510.82388d5-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
Since reverting from the deb-multimedia xbmc package to the upstream Debian
package, video playback no longer works when VAAPI is enabled and a VAAPI
driver is installed.
When playing back a video with VAAPI enabled, the audio stream starts but the
video does not display on screen. Clicking the video thumbnail brings up a
black screen which does not display any video. Disabling VAAPI or uninstalling
the VAAPI driver resolves the issue.
Given that I previously had this configuration working, and that gstreamer
playback is fine when the gstreamer-vaapi plugin is installed, I believe this
must be a bug in the specific version of xbmc packaged by Debian.
Thanks.

Thank you for the report and verifying the fix.
For the record xbmc finally made it to wheezy-backports thanks to the
Multimedia Team and to others for providing dependencies.
Cheers,
