Thank you for pointing me to that other bug, I seem to have solved the
problem using the following workaround:
1)create a symlink with sudo ln -s
/usr/lib/va/drivers/fglrx_drv_video.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-
gnu/dri/fglrx_drv_video.so
2)Add the line LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME="fglrx" to /etc/environment.
Now vainfo returns the following:
libva: VA-API version 0.32.0
libva: User requested driver 'fglrx'
libva: Trying to open /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/fglrx_drv_video.so
libva: va_openDriver() returns 0
vainfo: VA-API version: 0.32 (libva 1.0.15)
vainfo: Driver version: Splitted-Desktop Systems XvBA backend for VA-API - 0.7.8
vainfo: Supported profile and entrypoints
VAProfileH264High : VAEntrypointVLD
VAProfileVC1Advanced : VAEntrypointVLD
And opening a video with vlc returns:
MKV/Ebml Parser: m_el[mi_level] == NULL
MKV/Ebml Parser: Up cannot escape itself
MKV/Ebml Parser: m_el[mi_level] == NULL
libva: VA-API version 0.32.0
libva: User requested driver 'fglrx'
libva: Trying to open /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/fglrx_drv_video.so
MKV/Ebml Parser: Up cannot escape itself
libva: va_openDriver() returns 0
xvba_video: XVBA_GetSurface(): status 2
[0x7febe4c579e8] avcodec decoder: Using VA API version 0.32 for hardware
decoding.
Is it working properly now? (I don't really know).
