No it hasn't. It plays .mp4 videos fine here, on several systems. > I am using a Thinkpad T530 with Intel graphics. I tried all the > different video output modes, and none of them work.

Did you choose a different output device than "Auto" or "VDPAU" as well when you disabled it? > This seems to be a common problem: > https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/505803-VLC-no-longer-plays-MP4-%2 > 8H264%29 I don't see this as a "common problem" with VLC. _3_ people have mentioned a problem in this thread, and for two of them it is solved meanwhile. > Here is the output when I try to play an .mp4: > ... > [00007f9fd0ca9588] avcodec decoder: Using OpenGL/VAAPI/libswscale > backend for VDPAU for hardware decoding. > [h264 @ 0x7f9fd0d54080] hardware accelerator failed to decode picture > [h264 @ 0x7f9fd0d993a0] hardware accelerator failed to decode picture > [h264 @ 0x7f9fd0e2fd60] hardware accelerator failed to decode picture > [h264 @ 0x7f9fd0ec6720] hardware accelerator failed to decode picture > [00007f9fb4001268] vdpau_display vout display error: video mixer surface > width capabilities query failure: VDP_STATUS_NO_IMPLEMENTATION > [h264 @ 0x7f9fd0d54080] hardware accelerator failed to decode picture > [h264 @ 0x7f9fd0d993a0] hardware accelerator failed to decode picture > [VS] error (vdpVideoSurfaceGetBitsYCbCr): not implemented conversion VA > FOURCC -> VDP_YCBCR_FORMAT_YV12 > [00007f9fb569dd28] vdpau_chroma filter error: video surface export > failure: VDP_STATUS_INVALID_Y_CB_CR_FORMAT > [VS] error (vdpVideoSurfaceGetBitsYCbCr): not implemented conversion VA > FOURCC -> VDP_YCBCR_FORMAT_YV12 > ====================== Well, your problem is definitely related to hardware decoding (not VLC itself). Please follow the last post in the thread. Or are you the same person anyway? To repeat here: As you have an intel system, make sure you do not have vdpau-video installed (although according to your output this seems not to be the problem, as libva opens /usr/lib64/dri/i965_drv_video.so). So I would suggest you try to uninstall libvdpau_va_gl1. This redirects VDPAU to VA-API (libva), so that you can use VDPAU on intel systems as well. As VLC supports VA-API directly anyway, this is not really necessary.
