Your laptop has integrated Intel graphics. Nothing you ever do will make it capable of using a VDPAU profile. Could you give us the log output from trying to use the (non-VDPAU) Normal or Slim profile?<br></blockquote><div>
<br>OK, I feel very stupid - VDPAU is ofcouse nvidia only!<br>Weirdly it's been set to VDPAU for a while, and has played various content (even those that fall under the same recording schedule and channel, back-to-back showings) perfectly fine!<br>
<br>switching to VAAPI (which the Intel 4500MHD supports) now plays the content that originally failed, although i did need to restart mythfrontend.... maybe this is why the 'normal' or 'slim' profiles didnt work; no mythfrontend restart.<br>
<br>Thanks for stating the obvious Raymond; it was obviously needed this time :D<br></div></div>
