After updating to 22.20(.3) AMF has started working for me again. Both h264_amf and hevc_amf are available, and I can use all the new features in the OBS 28.0 AMF encoder.

This package no more work for AMF encoding since months. I discovered that installing this package instead fixed AMF encoding (tested on 6900XT and 5700XT) : amdgpu-pro-installer-fix (as of today installs version 22.20 of AMD packages)

https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/amdgpu-pro-installer-fix Praise the lord for the guy that took upon him to fix it.

What you think is a problem? This is a pkgbase which contains several packages.

Had some real trouble getting ffmpeg encoding working as you can't directly install amdgpu-pro-installer, as it does not show directly on AUR search, meaning AUR helpers miss it. It turned out lib32-vulkan-amdgpu-pro had never been pulled. Would it be possible for the deps to please be pulled directly by this package, especially as the wiki page says to install this package alone for ffmpeg encoding. Without the lib32 package, I had multiple errors and couldn't encode anything.

I am not updating only because I hoped this package could not be needed if https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/issues/6256 is solved. Regarding the error, can you try again, and if problem persist, open an issue in the repo?

I wanted to PR and update this package ,but i got this problem: Aptly Failed! It skips the process of entering a password

I just enter the command, then I get this

Loading packages...

I really didn't press double enter!

If you don't need professional features of the AMD proprietary driver then just install vulkan-radeon package (its the RADV open source vulkan driver for the open source amdgpu driver included in the kernel).

I don't have the AMDGPU PRO proprietary driver i have mesa can i use the vulkan driver without problems?

I don't know what other update fixed it but today i reinstalled this amdgpu-pro V21.50.2 Vulkan, AMF & libgl and its working. At least my test encode does not crash.

If i go further and try to mix vulkan hardware decoding + vulkan filter with amf encoding it crashes :

So for now, only very basic AMF encoding woks, as long as frames comes from some software path or vaapi hardware accel (opencl filters combinaison works too, sad there are no opencl scale filters in ffmpeg).

I am getting [h264_amf @ 0x55e1ae1016c0] DLL libamfrt64.so.1 failed to open instead of yours [h264_amf @ 0x55fe454cfec0] AMF initialisation succeeded via Vulkan.. I tested that with RX580. Did they drop support for it in amf?
