Use the official 10.2 driver or wait for the next 10.3-beta. Or, update MPlayer/VAAPI if you want to stick to the current 10.3-beta.

Hi gbeauche,

Thank you for your reply.

I've tested with beta version only.With latest version mplayer displaying a green screen.(i've already tested).

but "./mplayer-vaapi -vo x11 <filename>" it is playing fine.

What clip (codec, url to the clip)? How did you invoke mplayer?

Confirm green screen with latest mplayer.
In terminal I see:
...
Intel(r) Embedded Graphics Driver 10.2 Build 1450
...
VO: [vaapi] 480x272 => 480x272 Planar YV12
Selected video codec: [wmv9dmo] vfm: dmo (Windows Media Video 9 DMO)

But actual HW acceleration not involved, cpu usage is very high.

vainfo

works correctly? Also you have to use

mplayer -va vaapi -vo vaapi <URI>

[huso113]

vainfo if fine:

mplayer -va vaapi -vo vaapi <URI> like with previous versions of mplayer, with same video file gives green screen

Post the whole log, starting with the command line. You get a green screen because you are either using a non-accelerated codec or you are not invoking mplayer correctly. The former happens because "iegd" does not implement vaPutImage() yet to handle display of non-accelerated videos. The latter happens because you are not passing -va vaapi.

Install libva package from http://www.splitted-desktop.com/~gbe...bva/pkgs/i386/

I have encountered libva errors to with 0.29 version that exists in IEGD driver.
