Any way you could maybe add support for VP9? The developer of libva-vdpau-driver-vp9 has abandoned the project, and so it hasn't worked in a few Chromium versions, which means those of us with VP9-capable GPUs are limited to using H264ify which means we can only use 1080p if we want hardware-accelerated video decode.

@DAC324

this package required a patch for chromium 79, maybe it needs another one for chromium 87.

No hardware accelerated H.264 video playback with Chromium 87 (which is supposed to include the VA-API patch, so no need for any Chromium-VAAPI anymore).

Looks like this package is either incompatible with Chromium 87 or Nvidia drivers <= 390.

UPDATE: There was a misconfiguration on my side. After fixing, the driver works with Chromium 87 and 89 (developer version).

libva is now only a makedepend with libva-vdpau-driver 0.7.4-5 and there's a new patch.

thanks @JstKddng your repo worked great!

@asem

I setup a package with that patch: https://github.com/jstkdng/libva-vdpau-driver-chromium

I needed to add xorgproto to makedepends to build succesfully (see https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/64892).

Hello

Can you please check the patch mentioned here
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1877774#p1877774

It fixes chromium 79 Vaapi acceleration

I can no longer build the package

Thanks for the confirmation.

sl1pkn07 commented on 2019-07-17 13:14 (UTC)

AWOL? Nope, nothing to do here

xuanruiqi commented on 2019-06-26 01:20 (UTC)

This seems to be breaking hardware accelerated video playback on Chromium at the moment.

mbrennr commented on 2019-06-02 03:16 (UTC)

Thanks for your work, unfortunately it doesn't work anymore. Falls back to ffmpeg, with GT 1030. Vainfo reports unknown codec, I'm guessing that's the problem.

Hentioe commented on 2018-10-31 05:22 (UTC)

chromium-vaapi is available. However, conflict with libva-vdpau-driver, delete libva-vdpau-driver will affect the hardware decoding of other video players?

xuiqzy commented on 2018-08-16 10:10 (UTC)

Please change the source url of the freedesktop source to TLS encrypted https, tested it and works! Thanks :)

fsck_bieber commented on 2018-03-10 08:36 (UTC)

is it normal that chromium-vaapi-bin doesn't utilize video engine when playing h264 streams?

sudsbud commented on 2018-01-07 17:24 (UTC)

Worked perfectly. Thanks so much! the chromium package I used was this one https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/chromium-vaapi-bin/
