But intel-gpu-top shows VLC using the GPU, so it is trying to use accelerated video. From the very same log I submitted: libva info: VA-API version 1.16.0 libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/iHD_drv_video.so libva info: Found init function __vaDriverInit_1_15 libva info: va_openDriver() returns 0 [00007fd370062690] main generic debug: using hw decoder module "vdpau_avcodec" [00007fd384c1d9b0] avcodec decoder: Using OpenGL/VAAPI backend for VDPAU for hardware decoding > Note that Debian has turned off VA-API support in VLC: > https://bugs.debian.org/1021601 Any good reason for that decision? It worked wonderfully Thanks in advance.
