Great to hear that! But do note that stable/hwacc is at 105 and falling behind, so unresolved CVEs will start accumulating and I don't recommend using it on a regular basis. Unfortunately, so far it is the only one I could get VDAVideoDecoder on. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to chromium-browser in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1816497 Title: [snap] vaapi chromium no video hardware decoding Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: To test the snap with VA-API changes, 1. Install the Chromium snap, sudo snap install --channel stable/hwacc chromium 2. Start Chromium, snap run chromium 3. Open a video, e.g. one from https://github.com/chthomos/video- media-samples. 4. Enter about:media-internals in the address bar, click the corresponding box (if the video is playing, it will have the "(kPlay)" identifier) and note what the page says for kVideoDecoderName. Please report - The value for kVideoDecoderName from step 4. Success is typically {Vaapi,VDA,Mojo}VideoDecoder while failure is {FFMpeg,Vpx,Dav1d}VideoDecoder; - Xorg or Wayland (`echo $WAYLAND_DISPLAY`); - Distro version (`grep VERSION= /etc/os_release`); - GPU (`lscpu`); - CPU generation (`lscpu`). Currently it seems to work for all reporters on Xorg. The version in stable/hwacc is fixed. Versions in other channels (edge/hwacc, beta/hwacc, candidate/hwacc) follow the Chromium release cycle (dev, beta and stable channels as in https://omahaproxy.appspot.com/all.json?os=linux). ----------Original Bug report --------- Libva is no longer working for snap installed chromium 72.0.3626.109 (Official Build) snap (64-bit) I followed this instruction sudo snap install --channel=candidate/vaapi chromium My amdgpu can use libva `vainfo: Driver version: Mesa Gallium driver 18.3.3 for AMD STONEY (DRM 3.27.0, 4.20.0-10.1-liquorix-amd64, LLVM 7.0.1) vainfo: Supported profile and entrypoints VAProfileMPEG2Simple : VAEntrypointVLD VAProfileMPEG2Main : VAEntrypointVLD VAProfileVC1Simple : VAEntrypointVLD VAProfileVC1Main : VAEntrypointVLD VAProfileVC1Advanced : VAEntrypointVLD VAProfileH264ConstrainedBaseline: VAEntrypointVLD VAProfileH264ConstrainedBaseline: VAEntrypointEncSlice VAProfileH264Main : VAEntrypointVLD VAProfileH264Main : VAEntrypointEncSlice VAProfileH264High : VAEntrypointVLD VAProfileH264High : VAEntrypointEncSlice VAProfileHEVCMain : VAEntrypointVLD VAProfileHEVCMain10 : VAEntrypointVLD VAProfileJPEGBaseline : VAEntrypointVLD VAProfileNone : VAEntrypointVideoProc` To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1816497/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
