Getting XvMC to work on gf7900gt with 9629

[Richard87]

Hello, I need help to get XvMC to work.

I have Geforce 7900GT pcie, with the newest driver(9629) installed, I have compiled the mplayer from source and it works with the xv driver, when trying using -vo xvmc it fails with

VIDEO:  [avc1]  1280x720  24bpp  23.976 fps    0.0 kbps ( 0.0 kbyte/s)
Xlib:  extension "XFree86-VidModeExtension" missing on display ":0.0".
vo_xvmc: X-Video extension 2.2
vo_xvmc: No X-Video MotionCompensation Extension on :0.0
Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device.

I tried "echo /usr/lib/libXvMCNVIDIA_dynamic.so.1 > /etc/X11/XvMCConfig", but with no luck.

Any tips to get this working?

Does this problem go away if you instruct the X server to load the extmod module in your X configuration file?

Xorg.conf already load extmod module(I have checked the log to verify..)

You need to do a:

mplayer -vo xvmc -vc ffmpeg12mc the.flie.

You can add the deinterlacer with:
mplayer -vo xvmc:bobdeint -vc ffmpeg12mc the.file.

You need the -vc setting for it to work.
