Dear all,
I'm trying to use vlc and ffmpeg on guix to cut mp4 files. When trying
to play the mp4 files using vlc I encounter errors like:
> Failed to open VDPAU backend libvdpau_nvidia.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
In [0] it is suggested that missing compile options are the reason for
these kind of errors might be missing compile flags (--enable...) which
are in fact not enabled in the package specification of ffmpeg.
On te ofther hand I tried to install vdpauinfo and it returns:
> $ vdpauinfo
> display: :0 screen: 0
> Failed to open VDPAU backend libvdpau_nvidia.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
> Error creating VDPAU device: 1
So it might be caused by missing libraries for my graphicscard.
Any idea? Someone?
Cheers,
Alex

I was on the wrong track. Even though the library is not found this is
not the cause of the error. If I start vlc in a smaller frame (screen is
4k), something like less than 3k width, it works. If I resize the frame
to more than 3/4 of the screen width, vlc just shows a black screen
while sound still works. Strange!
Cheers,
Alex
