It would be very nice if I could go back to VDPAU, but I can't you see, as I need these AMD cards for another purpose. And as we all know, AMD and nVidia drivers are rigged to not co-exist on the same system, for competitive (not technical) reasons.
So I would like to somehow get VA-API running with this rig. It appears vainfo is responding as it should, and so VA-API must be set up correctly. So it must have to do with Myth's integration, or use of, VA-API. This is the problem.
