VLC don't use libva

Hello. I try to have VLC on my arch freshly installed with the acceleration functional.(intel driver)
The use of the gpu is checked in the option. Vlc did not mention the use of libva or any error in the console message.
Everything looks good at the driver (vainfo ok) but VLC does not seem to try to use va-api.
An idea?
thank you

I have GLX (XCB) for the output in the "video" menu. I use only Kwin (i'm on kde) effects, but off (alt+ maj + f12) same issue. Previously i was on fedora and my vlc show if it use or not libva. 
With ffmpeg-hw i have :
[0x7fd4f8ca38b8] avcodec decoder warning: threaded frame decoding is not compatible with ffmpeg-hw, disabled.
But no line "libva" after... The worry is that the log does not say if this is ok or not as if there were no libva for VLC.
Here is my glxinfo

  • Time Machine formatted itself on my external drive despite pressing "Don't Use"

    I have an external hard drive that has been in use on/off for years. I even had backups on it (not using Time Machine). I mounted this hard drive, it was taking a while to mount. A prompt came up to ask if I wanted to use this drive as a time machine backup. I said "Don't Use". It hanged. Meanwhile, I opened disk utility twice. Both I had to force quit. After a while I relaunched finder.
    Assuming it would cancel the time machine prompt. Only when did the finder eventually relaunch that the drive mounted to see that all my files where gone and looking in Thermal under ls -a to see their we're spotlight and time machine files along with some oddly named thing. About 1GB Is in use on the drive(I had much more that a gig on it). It is a TB drive
    Here is the output from the ls -a on the volume
    ._.com.apple.timemachine.donotpresent
    .com.apple.timemachine.donotpresent
    .Spotlight-V100
    .fseventsd
    .Trashes
    USBCˆö?␀.␀€␀
    ._.Trashes
    Anyway would a tool like this (http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk) help get back my files and format back to what I had previously? Or I am going in the wrong direction? What should I do?
    Thanks. If you have any questions please reply below

    Thank you Thomas,
    I should have mentioned that the drive is formated as FAT32 and I  ran verify disk on the drive and this error keep coming up until I stop the process :
    "2013-02-16 12:06:23 +0000: / has entries after end of directory
    2013-02-16 12:06:23 +0000: Truncate? no
    2013-02-16 12:06:23 +0000: Extend? no"
    Will the tools mentioned in you post work with FAT 32? I am looking at Data Rescue 3 becuase of the FileIQ functionality since I know I have obsure file formats on there
    Does this help or it is irrelevant?

  • How do I remove the "Web" bar in F4 - I don't use any of the social sites

    A black toolbar with "Web" on the LHS has appeared in my latest version of FF. It is near the top of the page. How do I get rid of it - it is annoying and I don't use any of the sites it has (like Facebook or Twitter etc)

    That didn't come with Firefox4, something else installed that into Firefox.
    Try the Firefox SafeMode. <br />
    ''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
    # You can open the Firefox 4.0 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    # Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
    If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />

    I've had MS Office:mac 2011 on my imac for around 18 months now.  Outlook has just disappeared and when I find the file and open it it tells me that there is a problem and I may need to re-install it.  I've just done this using the installation disc which, then said the installation had been successful.
    Outlook is still not working.  Can anyone please advise me on what to do next.

    Remove MS Office 2011 completely (here are instructions) and reinstall it.
    It's not a simple or fast process but it is important to follow all of the steps in order to get all the files that Office scatters around. This will not affect your data files, only MS Office and its preferences.

    I have been a loyal customer for years and have a hot spot because internet options are very limited in our rural area.  I have stayed with 10G since the beginning.  Most months I don't use the 10G.  Verizon has no problem with me paying for Data I don't use.  This month my daughter comes home from College and she accidentally uses 24G.....14 over get blind sided with $140.00 in overages.  I called Verizon today......stopped in to the store today......My neighbor told me they waved charges for her one time.  Lots of charges.....But I'm am getting no help.  Not even an offer of a payment plan to help me out.  I went back just 6 months and I have over paid for 19G.....Seems like they would like to help out their loyal customers!!!!     Does anybody have any suggestions on how to deal with them?   We are not wealthy....or I would just pay this and walk away......

    There is a big misconception in what customers believe a cell carrier is obligated to do.
    You pay a set price to use up to that amount of xx data. It makes no difference if you use it to the paid limit or way under. Its like peace of mind when you don't have to worry about a data counter.
    Your daughter used the data, your plan is quite clear of what overage charges are. Why should or would Verizon wireless just forgive the charges because you are a customer? Your daughter used the data, get the money from her. That is the responsible thing to do.
    There is no "I have been a loyal customer so please remove the $120, or $250, or $2,000.00 since I did not mean to use it"
    Your electric company, or gas company or any other company does not remove valid charges. Why should Verizon wireless?
    Just pay the invoice and don't think you are being mistreated because Verizon is a business and not a charity.
    Good Luck

  • Attention!!-don't use OLE object in Reports

    If you are planning to use or is currently using OLE objects in Reports-please don't use it as the object maynot reload in future and your report may not even open in Report Builder.I got this message when opening the report containing OLE object:
    REP-4004: Error occurred while restoring OLE object
    and it refused to open up crashing my days of work.
    The pity is I can't open my report even to remove the OLE object.

    I know that is weird.I placed the object in the same directory-but in vain.Afterall, what's the logic of putting it in the same directory after embedding it?

  • I upgraded for Firefox 4 and now my simplePass identity protection (biometric scanner) on my laptop will not work. WHY? It still works with IE but I don't use IE.

    I upgraded for Firefox 4 and now my HP SimplePass Identity Protection (biometric scanner) on my laptop will not work. WHY? It still works with IE but I don't use IE. It worked with the previous Firefox version but now when I use the internet, it doesn't even acknowledge I have the scanner. When I run my finger over it, it opens the settings panel but does not allow use of the already saved information or allow new information to be entered. I need this corrected. Any suggestions?

    I asked this same question, and just received a response:
    "Thank you for contacting DigitalPersona. There will be no update releases
    for DigitalPersona Personal in the future. There will be no updates for
    Firefox 4 nor Internet Explorer 9. IF they work they work, if they do
    not work with DPPersonal, then you will have to decide to either keep
    DPPersonal and forgo Firefox 4 or IE 9, or vice versa. DigitalPersona
    is leaving the consumer market and is focusing on business applications.
    In fact, DigitalPersona Personal will not longer be supported after
    Mid-April of this year.
    We apologize for any inconvenience this might cause. Sincerely, Tech Team "
    In other words, there will be NO update.

    You can access, usually under the Apple (icon) menu in the main desktop
    window, note item with name "About this Mac" & click on that, to see more
    information about your computer, its OS X version, and other. The system
    version and build model are there. Do not post a serial number.
    If you are setting up Mail in a Mavericks OS X 10.9.x system, there often
    is access to information in the Help viewer from the main menu bar, or
    in an open mail application. If you have a Gmail or other account, that
    info is often on their home page where setup and help are located.
    The settings of each email account may vary according to their provider;
    so you would have to change your computer to accept them. An older
    link to a general look at that issue, change IMAP to POP, is covered here:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/16770816#16770816
    While that may not answer your question, you could use the info in
    your Mac OS X system Help viewer and use its search; or maybe
    a Spotlight search to see an answer online.
    You have to learn some basic things in order to actually use these...
    and it helps to expand that so you won't have to pay for tech service
    on things you can do yourself in a few minutes, beyond easy stuff.
    Of course, you're hearing this from a guy with no ISP email, ever.
    So mine are web-mail only; & I never save email to a computer.
    PS: If you have a new Mac with an AppleCare plan, you may be able
    contact Support for help. Ask someone (for 90 days, or up to 3 years
    if the Plan was extended) there at AppleCare, for their guidance.

    How can I sync my iPhone on a different computer without erasing my applications? My iPhone was earlier synced with a PC which I don't use anymore.
    On the new computer, I am getting a message that my all purchases would be deleted if I sync it with new iTunes library.
    Please help with proper steps, if any.

  • Trying to get into the app store and it asks for my password. The problem is that it is showing an Apple ID I don't use ghosted in. I can't figure out how to use my correct ID.

    Trying to get into the App Store to update some apss. It asks for my password but the problem is that it is showing ghosted an Apple ID I don't use. Can't figure out how to fix it.

    You installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
    Important: The app you need to remove is not necessarily the one named in the App Store alert. For example, if the App Store says you need to update "Twitter," the hacked app may be "Angry Birds" or something else entirely. Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you have to carry out a systematic search.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
    kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    In the Finder, press command-F to open a search window, or select
    File ▹ Find
    from the menu bar. In the search window, select
    Search: This Mac
    from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu initially showing Kind. From that menu, select  Other...
    A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select Raw Query and click OK or press return.
    Now there will be a text box to the right of popup menu. Click in that box and paste (command-V).
    The search window will show all the App Store products you've installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
    At least one of the items listed in the search window is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
    Log out and log back in. Test.

  • I have the option to actualization of iMovie, but I can`t no change the Apple ID, the e-mail its appearing I don`t use anymore, how may I delete that e-mail address?

    Dear People,
    I have the option to do the actualization of iMovie for my MacBook pro, but I can`t no download that because the Apple ID don`t let me change the e-mail address, there is an e-mail address that I don`t use anymore since long time a go, when I'm log in with my Apple ID, and I try to download the actualization, the system request again to log in, with the old e-mail address, and have no option to change the e-mail address for the right one, some body may help me?

    Take a look at this Apple doc -> Frequently asked questions about Apple ID
    How do I change or recover a forgotten Apple ID Password?
    If you've forgotten your Apple ID Password or want to change it, go to My Apple ID and follow the instructions. See How to change your Apple ID password if you'd like more information.

  • My old email comes up when I want to update my apps.and I know that email is old and I don't use it.however I don't have a password for it so am unable to update.how can I delete it? And have my current email for that

    My old email come up when I want to update my apps.however I don't use that password at all,I've even had a message saying its not in use. I can't update them though which is really annoying! I've tried setting up that email again and change password but doesn't work at all.does anyone know how I can get rid of and use my current email?

    Hi there, this problem has probably been resolved now, but I must say that I came across these posts today as I had the same problem, my old e mail kept popping up, but all sorted now!  Old Apps are not tied to the old Apple ID, honestly!
    Rudegar is so right, all you do is go the SETTINGS/iTunes & App Store, then select `Apple ID` `Sign Out` then you get the chance to enter your new ID, and it worked a treat!
    Good luck with anyone else with this problem, as I spent so long on this, really stupid!
    PS you`ll need to again verify bank details

  • How can I disable itunes on my iphone 4s?  I don't use it for music and need to prevent it from automatically activating when I plug in to my vehicle.

    How do I disable itunes on my iphone 4s?  I don't use the phone for music, and I need to prevent it from automaically playing music when I plug the phone into my vehicle.  I have attempted to delete all music from the device (so there would be nothing to play), but 1 song remains in the iphone memory and I have been unable to delete that song.

    iTunes app on the iPhone is for purchasing music.
    The fact the iPhone starts playing when connected to your car stereo is a function of your car bluetooth system.
    Consult your car dealer/bluetooth system manual.

    Connect the iPhone to computer and select it in iTunes.
    Click the Music tab and uncheck Sync music.
    Then click Apply at lower right of iTunes.

  • I can't log into my Apple ID account, I wish to change my email address, as I don't use the one that is already my Apple ID now, and it doesn't exist anymore, but It won't let me log in, it keeps saying username or password wrong, when I believe what

    HHow can I change my Apple ID,, it's not letting me log into my account as I don't use the current email address for that Apple ID anymore, that email address does not exist anymore, and I want to change it to a new one

    Where are you trying to log in? You should be able to change your ID at http://appleid.apple.com - can you log in there?
    Before you change your ID you should log out of the iTunes Store and on any devices which are logged into iCloud. Then once you've changed it you can log back in with the new ID. (Your iCloud synced data will disappear from the device when you do this but will reappear when you sign back in - give it time).
    If you are unable to sign into http://appleid.apple.com you will need to contact Support. Go to http://iforgot.apple.com and sign in with your iCloud login. A new password will be sent to your associated email address. If this doesn't work you will have to contact Support. Go to https://getsupport.apple.com . Click' See all products and services', then 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID', then 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Lost or forgotten Apple ID password'. If you have any problems with that try this form: https://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html

  • How can I cancel an existing Apple ID that I don't use and need anymore?

    As it is impossible to merge Apple ID's I would like to cancel the one that I don't use and need anymore. But even when I sign into my account there is no hint or else to just erase or cancel the whole thing. Any ideas? Thankx a lot!

    Thank you! I thought I've missed something somewhere between the lines...
