Hi,

I am trying to use the gstreamer-vaapi-0.2.5 plugin for video playback 
using the hardware decoder.
I am working on Fedora Core 13 and using the following packages as 
mentioned on Intel Linux graphics site 
(http://intellinuxgraphics.org/2010Q2.html) :

2D driver: xf86-video-intel 2.12.0 release
3D driver: mesa 7.8.2 release
Libdrm: libdrm-2.4.21 release
Kernel: 2.6.34 release
Cairo: cairo-1.9.8
Libva: libva-1.0.3
xserver-1.8.1.


Apart from this I have installed the following gstreamer packages:
gstreamer-0.10.29
gst-plugins-base-0.10.29
gst-plugins-good-0.10.22
gst-plugins-bad-0.10.19
gst-plugins-ugly-0.10.15
gst-ffmpeg-0.10.10.


vainfo displays the following infomation:
libva: libva version 0.31.1
libva: va_getDriverName() returns 0
libva: Trying to open /usr/lib/dri/i965_drv_video.so
libva: va_openDriver() returns 0
vainfo: VA API version: 0.31
vainfo: Driver version: i965 Driver 0.1
vainfo: Supported profile and entrypoints
      VAProfileMPEG2Simple            :    VAEntrypointVLD
      VAProfileMPEG2Main              :    VAEntrypointVLD
      VAProfileH264Baseline           :     VAEntrypointVLD
      VAProfileH264Main               :      VAEntrypointVLD
      VAProfileH264High               :      VAEntrypointVLD



When I run the sample application "test-decode" present in 
gstreamer-vaapi/tests folder,  I get an x11 window but it does not 
display any content(i.e a blank screen appears).
What could be the problem? :-( ....


Thanks and Regards,
Jyotsana.
