This script, which passes appropriate options to mplayer for use with VDPAU, has just been added to R6. It says at the top "this script written by an anonymous author", but it's actually a slightly modified version of a script that I wrote as part of the VDPAU article on KnoppMythWiki. Not to be vain or anything, but it's kind of a downer to get something I made, small as it may be, added as a part of my favorite Linux distro only to be credited as "anonymous". :) And I know there was no way to know who wrote it from the Wiki article. It would be cool, though, if that could get changed to "this script written by nickca on the KM forums" or something like that. Thanks, not a big priority or anything.

Sorry dude, as you pointed out, you didn't leave a calling card on that wiki page, otherwise I would have gladly added props in the comment section... credit where credit is due I always say. Anyway, Cesman closed the ticket, but maybe he or someone else on the dev team can insert your line into the two scripts?

@devs - If you guys want, I can open a new ticket, reuploading the modded files. Otherwise I can email to you as well. Please send me a PM and let me know what to do.

New comment section for the vdpau detector:
Code:
# This script written by nickca on the KM forum
# Original page http://www.knoppmythwiki.org/index.php?page=HardwareAcceleratedVideo
#
# It's modded to allow vdpau switches commands to pass to a modded version of Bob Igo's
# mplayer-resumer.pl wrapper for mplayer
#
# User can customize commandline for mplayer by editing the appropriate sections below
# They include BASIC_OPTS, NOHD_OPTS, and LOW_OPTS


New changelog entry for the mplayer-resumer-vdpau.pl
Code:
# CHANGE LOG:
# 3/9/2009
# Modded Bob's wonderful resumer script to work with the vdpau
# options detector script nickca on the KM forum posted to the wiki
#
#  http://www.knoppmythwiki.org/index.php?page=HardwareAcceleratedVideo
#
# You need to have both this and the vdpau-detector script in the same
# dir for this to work properly.  Also, change your default mplayer
# options in mythfrontend to read simply: # mplayer-resumer-vdpau.pl %s
#
# To tweak the shell commands for mplayer, edit the vdpau-detector script.
# It has a small README inside it as comments
# ENJOY!
