chromium for debian #64
Comments
I start chromium with: But its still using this VPXvideoDecoder
|
Regarding your first issue. If you use a custom kernel, make sure you have all the required kernel options selected, like CONFIG_USER_NS (and I think there are others). As to your second issue. Either your Video Card or the vdpau wrapper does not support VPX decoding. You can work around that by installing h264ify, which forces YT to use H264 instead. |
nope using the default kernel of debian. Normal chrome just works fine. uname -a
Linux computername 5.3.0-2-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 5.3.9-3 (2019-11-19) x86_64 GNU/Linux |
I see. Well, the first problem has this message: 'No usable sandbox! Update your kernel or see https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/docs/linux_suid_sandbox_development.md for more information on developing with the SUID sandbox. If you want to live dangerously and need an immediate workaround, you can try using --no-sandbox.' As you can see from vainfo, there are no entrypoints for vp8 nor vp9 codecs. |
Thats strange. reagarding this website: https://developer.nvidia.com/video-encode-decode-gpu-support-matrix p1000 supports vp9 |
Support for VP9 decoding in VDPAU (which is different from NVENC/NVDEC) wasn't added until release 1.3 of libvdpau, which was released around august 28th this year. So if vdpauinfo shows it, it should be visible in vainfo as well. Please note that the va to vdpau wrapper is currently unmaintained and is lagging greatly in features. |
VP9 are supported within libvdpau 1.3 package Is it possible that the vdpau-va-driver doesn't have vp9 support ? When i run youtube with h264 video everything seems to be okey.
|
Yes, that could be. Again, check the output of vdpauinfo against vainfo. If stuff is missing in vdpau-va-driver, you're basically SoL, since it is unmaintained. |
vpdauinfo ether no vp9 support :/
|
Are you sure you have libvdpau 1.3? Also, vdpauinfo needs to be updated to show VP9 support. From my ancient GTX 770: |
I`ll think i have to upgrade to this driver: https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1065983/linux/linux-solaris-and-freebsd-driver-440-31-long-lived-branch-release-/post/5398163/#5398163
At this point i have version 430 from debian repo libvdpau version:
|
With driver nvidia version 440.36-1 problem still exist.
No VP9 found when running vpainfo and vdpauinfo |
If VP9 isn't listed at all in vdpauinfo, then your vdpauinfo needs updating (try the latest git, like me). But that doesn't seem to matter, because I took a look at vdpau-va-driver's source and it, indeed, doesn't have any reference to VP9. Since it hasn't been updated in over 7 years, I wouldn't hold my breath. |

Just for the information. With intel i have the same problem: |
If you would like VP9 support with NVIDIA, I have attempted to add such support to vdpau-va-driver here. It has been working for me so far without noticeable visual issues but needs more testing. https://github.com/xtknight/vdpau-va-driver-vp9 |
Regarding the appimages, I've published a couple of new appimages here. Use 78.0.3902.4 if your glibc version is 2.16 or newer (Ubuntu Xenial or newer), or 81.0.4000.3 if your glibc version is 2.27 or newer (Ubuntu Bionic or newer). |
FYI vaapi support has been enabled by package maintainer for unstable |
I got around the sandbox issue on Debian Sid by symlinking to

I`m using:
# lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Debian Description: Debian GNU/Linux bullseye/sid Release: unstable Codename: sid
After install chromium with the following ppa:
I`ll get the following message:
Is there anyway to run chromium with vaapi (for playing google stadia) with a debian installation ?
