I'm using 2.2.0+git20231014-81-e2192b6 with intel-media-driver 22.3.1 on a Jammy-based Ubuntu (Kernel 6.2)
Hardware is the IGP of an Intel N100M.

When executing vdr-sxfe--hud --syslog xvdr+tcp://127.0.0.1 everything works, except it's software-decoded with a massive CPU load.

When executing vdr-sxfe --video=vaapi --hud --syslog xvdr+tcp://127.0.0.1 I see only a black screen with the audio playing. The menu is visible, useable and hardware-accelerated (confirmed by intel_gpu_tp).

libva info: VA-API version 1.14.0
libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/iHD_drv_video.so
libva info: Found init function __vaDriverInit_1_14
libva info: va_openDriver() returns 0
vainfo: VA-API version: 1.14 (libva 2.12.0)
vainfo: Driver version: Intel iHD driver for Intel(R) Gen Graphics - 22.3.1 ()

    The problems seems to be xine and/or iHD driver related.
    A xine -V vaapi "xvdr+tcp://127.0.0.1:37890#nocache" shows a black screen as well.
    Attached is the verbose log.

    Let me know in case I should report this at the xine repository instead (not sure, since you're active as contributor there, too)

    Is this with "real" X11 or Wayland+XWayland ? Xine's vaapi video output doesn't work with XWayland.

    You could also try if xine can play recordings with vaapi:
    xine -V vaapi /path/to/some/recording.ts

    Real X11 - it's the Xfce edition of Linux Mint 21.2.

    I tried xine -V vaapi with a VDR TS recording from yesterday, same result: black screen, only audio.

    Attached you can find the verbose log.

    https://github.com/intel/libva/issues/677

    Yes, I think it is the same issue.

    One possible solution is using opengl2 video output with VAAPI decoding. It should be used automatically when EGL is used. With X11 one can "force" EGL instead of GLX by removing xine GLX plugin:

    /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/xine/plugins/2.11/xineplug_vo_gl_glx.so .

    After this, verbose log should show something like this:

    va_display_x11: Using libva 1.19
    vaapi: Vendor : Intel iHD driver for Intel(R) Gen Graphics - 23.2.3 ()
    vaapi: Context width 1920 height 1080
    vaapi_egl: VAAPI EGL interop enabled
    video_out_opengl2: Enabled hardware decoding.
