hi fellas
I think I've lost HW video decoding acceleration on A10
PRO-7800B R7 with recent kernel/mesa.
My kodi was nicely using vdpau until recently, I cannot say
when exactly it happened. Now only SW decoding and high CPU
usage.
I think I have all needed packages installed but vaapi also
seems to be gone, when I do:
[entertainer@swir ~]$ vainfo
libva info: VA-API version 0.40.0
libva info: va_getDriverName() returns 0
libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib64/dri/r600_drv_video.so
libva info: Found init function __vaDriverInit_0_40
libva info: va_openDriver() returns 0
vainfo: VA-API version: 0.40 (libva )
vainfo: Driver version: mesa gallium vaapi
vainfo: Supported profile and entrypoints
VAProfileNone : VAEntrypointVideoProc
# end of output
and there should be more, right?
In dmesg I see:

Could you tell your AMD APU(s) is still ok and working in
respect to UVD(video acceleration) in recentkernels/mesas ?
many thanks, L.
