Intel kms xvideo/vaapi? (was: Re: VLC problems)

[Kevin Oberman]

Subject alone was not enlightening. Are you trying to get vaapi working on
an Intel GPU? Do you have the appropriate Intel libva library installed for
your hardware?
Port: libva-intel-driver-2.4.0
Path: /usr/ports/multimedia/libva-intel-driver
Info: VAAPI legacy driver for Intel GMA 4500 (Gen4) or newer

Port: libva-intel-hybrid-driver-1.0.2_2
Path: /usr/ports/multimedia/libva-intel-hybrid-driver
Info: Hybrid VP8 encoder and VP9 decoder for Intel GPUs

Port: libva-intel-media-driver-20.1.1
Path: /usr/ports/multimedia/libva-intel-media-driver
Info: VAAPI driver for Intel HD 5000 (Gen8) or newer

Port: libva-2.7.1
Path: /usr/ports/multimedia/libva
Info: VAAPI wrapper and dummy driver

You always need the last one (libva) plus at least one other, probably
libva-intel-media-driver and, in most cases I think
libva-intel-hybrid-driver for vp8 an vp9 codecs. Older GPUs don't support
the hybrid driver.
