[mythtv-users] VDPAU broken after update and reboot

[Robert Dege]

Hello,

I'm running Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS.  After installing a bunch of updates and
rebooting the system, I no longer have VDPAU.  It looks as if the vdpau
device is not being created on boot.

>From the mythfrontend.log:
mythfrontend[2398]: E CoreContext mythrender_vdpau.cpp:1581 (CreateDevice)
VDPAU: Error at mythrender_vdpau.cpp:1581 (#1, Unknown)
mythfrontend[2398]: E CoreContext mythrender_vdpau.cpp:1585 (CreateDevice)

# vdpauinfo

I tried re-installing nvidia-current, but that did not resolve the problem
# apt-get install nvidia-current

Current nvidia software installed:
# dpkg -l | grep nvidia
ii  nvidia-304                                  304.132-0ubuntu0.12.04.1
rc  nvidia-common                          1:0.2.44.2
ii  nvidia-current                              304.132-0ubuntu0.12.04.1


Any help is appreciated.  I have no issues rolling back to a previous
package or trying to fix the issue with the current driver.
