Description:
Why is mplayer-vaapi explictly compiled to disable vdpau support? I have managed to compile the package with vdpau support by changing the "disable" to "enable" in the configure section.
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Won't implement
Additional comments about closing:  Please use the mplayer package from [extra] for vdpau acceleration.

I can't think of a specific reason for this, but couldn't you use the regular mplayer package for vdpau support?

While that's true, I was wondering if the two packages could just be merged so there's just one mplayer package that supports both vdpau and vaapi.

It's not possible for now as vaapi patches are not upstreamed.
Comment by Evangelos Foutras (foutrelis) - Friday, 13 December 2013, 14:28 GMT
Bartłomiej is correct in that the mplayer package will remain vanilla and could only support vaapi if the patches get merged upstream.
