Awesome! Something new on the VA-API Frond with UVD+ and Kodi? VDPAU is not working because of the missing interop Extension and the VA-API state Tracker is not "good enough" for Kodi.

For what Kodi does, you can just forcibly enable the vdpau interop extension. Kodi doesn't use the features that are missing from the extension on old parts by default.

Thats not working and end most times in a corrupted image.
