'vlc' works fine on netbsd-8 w/native Xorg--at least playing a local video file. "libva" still complains but doesn't prevent it from working. (The Xserver crashes at every opportunity, but I think that's a different problem--probably hardware getting flaky although it happens more frequently on netbsd-8 than on -current.) So, I've had to set that machine aside and have returned to an older workstation that's using an ATI/AMD Radeon X1550 Sapphire card (RV520). "libva" displays similar complaints about not finding an "r300_drv_video.so", but otherwise works--'vlc' plays a local video file without problems. It sort-of works to play a stream from my HDHomeRun unit using the "hdhomerun_config_gui", but the display just looks like mud and there's no audio. When 'vlc' exits, 'hdhomerun_config_gui' crashes. > Have you tried building multimedia/intel-vaapi-driver ? I tend only to build the leaf package in which I'm interested. If the dependencies don't pull stuff in and don't mention needing something explicitly installed, I haven't done it. It may be a side-effect of my use of the xf86-video-intel-2014 driver in -current. I'll see about switching back to the current driver in my next build (have to force "AccelMethod" "UXA" to get a usable display) and see if it fares different. -- |/"\ John D.

The paths it is searching do not exist. There is no "/usr/X11R7/lib/dri" nor "/usr/pkg/lib/dri". There is a "/usr/X11R7/lib/modules/dri" but there are no "*_drv_video.so" files there. I take this to mean that pkgsrc/modular Xorg is required. "Native" Xorg need not apply. Foo. -- |/"\ John D.
