Bug #6240
Unable to use *_vaapi codec Profies
0%
Description
Hi,
i try to use vaapi transcoding with tvheadend.
When i create a codec profile i can select all vaapi codecs. But when i create the profiles the Type is <unknown> and the codec profile can not be enabled.
I've tried it with Ubuntu 22.04 (Kernel 5.15) and 22.10 (Kernel 5.19). On both systems, the same behavior. The vainfo looks good for my perspective:
error: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is invalid or not set in the environment.
error: can't connect to X server!
libva info: VA-API version 1.15.0
libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/iHD_drv_video.so

Updated by Manuel,
if you have time to check the following tutorial: https://tvheadend.org/boards/4/topics/48572
Backup your HDD image (to restore it back later on) and follow that tutorial with OPTION 2 Gen11+ for N5000.
I can confirm was working on my case - except for hevc_vaapi 
for some reason.
Updated by Manuel Menz almost 2 years ago
Hi Alin,
thanks for the link. Because you still have the problem with hevc_vaapi it seems to me that i'm not alone with that issue and it would be better to find the root cause of the issue.
Regards,
Manuel
Updated by Alin Gherghescu almost 2 years ago
Manuel, in my case hevc_vaapi is found properly by TVH only that is generating some green artifacts ... but those are generated even if I spawn to ffmpeg.
My point is: that is not a TVH problem ... probably is a VAAPI driver problem.
The issue reported by you is unexpected (and different).
Follow the tutorial to confirm that rest of the codecs are working (h264 and vp9 ... you might have also vp8).
Updated by Alin Gherghescu almost 2 years ago
I can confirm the green artifacts in TGL (TigerLake iGPU Xe) are fixed in ffmpeg master. Are not fixed by any releases before that (even by 5.1.2).

Updated by ffmpeg 5 support for tvheadend will be quite some effort. Someone started working on it but never finished it.
