[pandev92]

Today I installed xorg video ati git and mesa git, but when I try to play a movie mpeg2 with vdpau outpu I can't see any image, video doesn't start. What I need to do?

Not sure if you still need that variable:

export VDPAU_DRIVER=r600

Then, try

vdpauinfo

to see if it should work.

Doesn't run

this is the output:

make sure /usr/lib{,32,64}/vdpau/libvdpau_r600.so is installed

OR you could just install FGLRX and use XvBA :trollface:

Problem solved, I downgraded libvdpau at 0.4 version
