<div>I have the same processor for my headless backend, but
have been unable to get vainfo to work at the terminal.
I've tried all of the libva drivers (including radeonsi) to
no avail.</div>

<div>For vaapi, did you have to install any special packages
to get acceleration working? I'm less interested in using it
for video display (again this is a headless server), but
more for transcoding.</div>

No, I didn't install any special packages. I just checked and
'vainfo' is not installed. <br>

I was poking around MythTV Front End's "Information Center ->
System Status -> Video Decoders" screen and noticed it showed
some vdpau and vaapi support. So I just tried them.
