[64 bit] flashplugin 11.2 hw decoding disabled with nvidia drivers 210.14

http://ubuntuforums.org – hi all, i had flashplugin working with hardware rendering and decoding with nvidia drivers 204.48. after i upgraded to 210.14 via xorg-edgers flashplugin fell back to software rendering and decoding and i couldn't reenable it despite trying every combination of the "use hardware acceleration" checkbox and mms.cfg. the funny thing is that these drivers were supposed to enhance vdpau acceleration with flashplugin and fix bugs. Vdpau is working flawlessy with kmplayer by the way... and my card is a 660ti. any advice is welcomed Manorba (Hardware)

Hi all,

since upgrading kubuntu 64bit to 12.10 i have tearing on the upper part of the desktop. i have vsync enabled both on nvidia panel and in system settings->desktop effects, in fact the same configuration was working fine up till now. i have the same problem with video on vlc (which was ok before, too) but not with kmplayer so i guess this is somethign i should ask on vlc forums...

Sorry if this is a simple question but I'm extremely new to linux and I've searched around for a couple hours and haven't been able to solve this. So this is the only thing holding me back from switching from windows at this point, but I feel I might be at a roadblock...

[Q] 1080p playback in U8800 24 weeks 5 days ago

I am using 2.3.5 official update. 720p videos are working fine with MX player with hardware decoding on. But 1080p videos are not working with hardware decoding. It plays with a lot of lag with software decoding in MX player. I am wondering if I overclock the device will it play 1080p videos with software decoding. Is there any other way I can play 1080p videos on this device.

[11.2] 3D Acceleration problem. 3 years 19 weeks ago

Hi, i've downloaded Eternal Lands game client and have a one problem - 2 max 3 fps.

I have installed nvidia drivers and everything what yast suggested me. It's strange because I can play 3d games and use desktop effects.

glxinfo tell me "WARNING: Direct Rendering is NOT enabled." but when i type sax2 3d acceleration is enabled and checked.

Flashplugin, Firefox and XFCE 42 weeks 3 days ago

I'm having a similar problem were Chrome makes my system crash If I leave certain pages and youtube videos open for some time. It happens as well in Firefox but not as often. I'm not sure if this is a flashplugin or nvidia issue.

I've read about VDPAU and how it enables mplayer to have Hardware acceleration. But i also read that it's only for Nvidia cards

How can i enable it on a non Nvidia card (mine it's a AMD but i would like to enable this in an Intel netbook too)? and will this work for other video players ?.

Xorg High CPU usage 1 year 27 weeks ago

Like I said in your 4chan thread the nouveau drivers are a hack-job of the official nvidia drivers and barely support 3D hardware acceleration and don't support nvidia optimus, so nouveau doesn't even use the GPU on a lot of laptops, so I recommend installing the normal official nvidia drivers.

Hello,

since I read for the first about the magic VAAPI that allow the brand new intel CPU/GPU to do accelerated video decoding I was always wondering if my own system was able to do it.

As Intel is the main provider of CPUs it seemed to me that it should be included by default...
