Significant blocking artifacts with VAAPI

Reported by: madscientist159 Owned by: Mark Kendall
Priority: minor Milestone: 31.0
Component: MythTV - Video Playback Version: v29.1
Severity: medium Keywords:
Cc: Ticket locked: no

Description

Attempting to use the VAAPI acceleration support with an AMD Vega GPU is showing significant blocking artifacts that are not part of the original video source. I've attached a couple of screenshots from the same TV recording, one with VAAPI enabled and the other with the standard OpenGL renderer.

This is a Vega 56 GPU on a ppc64le host.

In V30 there is a new rewritten VAAPI2. Also coming in V31 will be a rewritten OpenGL renderer. These will likely change what you see, hopefully for the better. I recommend upgrading to V30 and trying VAAPI and VAAPI2 there.

VAAPI support has been substantially re-written in master and should now be far more complete. I can't reproduce this issue.

If there are still issues in master (or 0.31 when it is released), please open another ticket and attach a full log from:

mythfrontend -v playback,gpu

If the issue is specific to certain file, then please attach a short clip that shows the problem on your system.
