Description Michael Lange 2009-03-23 00:46:04 UTC
xbmc needs a use-flag for vdpau-support to enable or disable
from configure --help 
--enable-vdpau          enable VDPAU decoding (default is yes)

else xbmc fails, if vdpau is not installed (for example here with an ati-card)
....
checking for main in -lvdpau... no
configure: error: ERROR: Could not find a required library. Please see README.linux



Reproducible: Always

This is currently being worked on upstream. vdpau was merged from a separate branch today, so expect some changes in the next few days. Probably no need to handle it here until it's settled, as reasonable defaults should soon be set.

Though a use-flag will ultimately be needed.
