[vlc-devel] [PATCH 0/2] VDPAU support - failed

[Rémi Denis-Courmont]

	Hello,

I tried to get VDPAU acceleration to work via libavcodec.
I failed miserably: AVC pictures are totally corrupt.
ASP pictures are black with some noise. MPEG-2 fails completely.
I did not even try VC-1 and MPEG-1.

The libav developers would want VDPAU support to be unified with the
other hardware acceleration methods. I don't think I can do it without
working starting point The libavcodec plugin is really not an area that
I am familiar with, so I have to give up at this point.

The following changes since commit 40d4d0fdf1269e28095e778e2486d9184c1733f1:
