Binary package hint: mythtv
karmic koala 2.6.31-14-generic
myttv 0.22.0+fixes22594-0ubuntu1
In "Settings->TV->Output on Page 3 it is possible to select "vdpau" as output. When run as non-root on NVIDIA 190.42 proprietary driver with onboard GeForce 8300.
Expectations: vdpau is working and maybe the bad tearing with ffmpeg / xvid disappears
Result:
NVIDIA: could not open the device file /dev/nvidiactl (Permission denied).

When run as root - via "sudo mythfrontend" "could not open the device file" is omitted
then...
2009-11-01 21:05:48.925 VidOutVDPAU Error: Failed to initialise VDPAU
etc...
assumptions
a) user cant access vdpau api because of insufficient rights -> misconfig in the distro
b) mythtv in ubuntu has no compiled vdpau support - but it is selectable in the menu |

b) mythtv in ubuntu has no compiled vdpau support - but it is selectable in the config menu within mythtv...
