No vdpau for the utopic xstack in trusty

[stargazer]

Hello,

I have tested the utopic xstack in trusty in the Canonical X Staging ppa
https://launchpad.net/~canonical-x/+archive/ubuntu/x-staging?field.series_filter=trusty .

It installs fine with;

LC_ALL=C apt-get install -V libglapi-mesa-lts-utopic libgl1-mesa-glx-lts-utopic xserver-xorg-lts-utopic xserver-xorg-input-all-lts-utopic xserver-xorg-video-all-lts-utopic libgl1-mesa-dri-lts-utopic libglapi-mesa-lts-utopic:i386 libgl1-mesa-dri-lts-utopic:i386 libgl1-mesa-glx-lts-utopic:i386 libgles2-mesa-lts-utopic libglapi-mesa-lts-utopic mesa-vdpau-drivers-lts-utopic libegl1-mesa-drivers-lts-utopic libwayland-egl1-mesa-lts-utopic

But under vdpauinfo there are no decoder capabilities for a AMD Radeon 5550 (r600);

Decoder capabilities:

name level macbs width height
-------------------------------------------

With stock xstack;

Decoder capabilities:

The total output of vdpauinfo is attached.

Yeah this was a bug in x-staging. Can you verify this works correctly now?

[stargazer (stargazer05)]

Thanks, now the decoder capabilities are shown (see the attachment), but two entries are missing;

--- Missing:

VC1_SIMPLE 1 9216 2048 1152
VC1_MAIN 2 9216 2048 1152

Any news regarding the missing decoder capabilities VC1_SIMPLE and VC1_MAIN?
