I’m using Debian 12, Ryzen 7 5700X processor, and Radeon HD 5450 graphics card. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling VLC but it didn’t resolve the issue. Here’s an excerpt from the VLC’s log file:
glconv_vaapi_x11 error: vaDeriveImage: operation failed
main error: video output creation failed
main error: failed to create video output
avcodec info: Using G3DVL VDPAU Driver Shared Library version 1.0 for hardware decoding
How do I resolve this issue?
I’m not sure off-hand since I’m not too familiar with VLC.
I would imagine it could be an issue in a graphics driver at the kernel (amdgpu?) or user level (mesa?). It could also be a problem in something higher up.
I would recommend posting an issue in the VLC repo and see if you can get better support that way.
