I am playing videos from my lubuntu computer to my tv through the hdmi interface on my video card. It mostly works. Some sound doesn't and I think it is related to the audio code. A52 Audio (aka AC3) (a52) works. It seems MPEG AAC Audio (mp4a) doesn't work. I checked a video that used to work and it doesn't work now. It has the mp4a codec also.
The one that used to work shows this in Tools/Messages: vdpau_avcodec error: decoder profile not supported: 7 The new one that doesn't work shows this in Tools/Messages: vdpau_avcodec error: decoder profile not supported: 8 I think it might be related to the noveau video driver: $ vainfo libva info: VA-API version 0.40.0 libva info: va_getDriverName() returns 0 libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/nouveau_drv_video.so libva info: va_openDriver() returns -1 vaInitialize failed with error code -1 (unknown libva error),exit _______________________________________________ Nouveau mailing list [email protected] https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/nouveau
