...you apply this patch to the multimedia/libxine port (at least until it has been committed), http://people.freebsd.org/~nox/dvb/libxine-vdpau2.patch or the xz(1) compressed version: http://people.freebsd.org/~nox/dvb/libxine-vdpau2.patch.xz and then make sure libxine is rebuilt with the VDPAU knob on. (You can manually invoke the config dialog with `make config' in the port dir.) And if you already build vdr and its plugins you may need to rebuild at least the multimedia/vdr-plugin-xineliboutput port too. And in case anyone is wondering, vdpau is a feature of newer nvidia graphics cards that can offload major parts of mpeg/h264/vc1 video decoding onto the gpu so those can be played with less cpu load. (Or even at all like often with hd video on `smaller' cpus.) The vdr 1.7.16 Call for testing post is here: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-multimedia/2011-January/011554.html And more links are here: http://people.freebsd.org/~nox/dvb/
