Bug#742896: Blank screen on all videos with VDPAU and nVidia card (xbmc)

[Wojciech Kuranowski]

Yes, VDPAU acceleration fails with the latest package. But it's a bit
better than before, because I have one example of working movie which
was not working with previous libav based xbmc packages. All other
tested movies fails with VDPAU. But everything works fine with ffmpeg
based xbmc.

This is my card:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GK107 [GeForce
GTX 650] (rev a1)

Driver:
nvidia-vdpau-driver:amd64            340.46-1

How can I help?
