[Akhelinux]

Hi all
Need help with vaapi setup on CentOS 7.

Hardware
HP ProLiant ML310e Gen8 v2
Xeon® E3-1270 v3
8 Gb Ram
AMD RX 550 2Gb
ILO on board video

Software
CentOS 7.9
Radeon™ Software for Linux® version 22.40.3 for RHEL 7.9

libva-1.8.3-1.el7.x86_64
libva-utils-1.8.3-4.el7.x86_64


In BIOS HP ProLiant ML310e Gen8 v2

I did not find any clear information on this error. Are there any suggestions what could be wrong?

seems you have two graphics cards

try to disable Matrox

[TrevorH]

If you disable the Matrox card then your iLO will no longer be able to have a remote console capability.

libva error: /usr/lib64/dri/radeonsi_drv_video.so has no function __vaDriverInit_0_32

That file is not something that is provided by any CentOS package so I think your problem is with the driver you have installed.

it doesn't seem like. it is! ) I wrote about it at the very beginning.

I know, thanks for the feedback

the drivers were installed from this link
https://www.amd.com/en/support/graphics ... eon-rx-550

I don't understand what other options there may be for drivers. only if try to downgrade the version...

[Akhelinux]

try to disable Matrox

by the way about this. I installed the CentOS 7 on another PC with Vega. (only one card in system)
And vainfo gives the same error there

[TrevorH]

https://www.amd.com/en/support/graphics ... eon-rx-550

See if there is a support link on that page that you can ask. It appears their driver is broken for this.

[Akhelinux]

Solved the errors in vainfo by downgrading the driver version. On some resource I read that to install (or rather to work) fresh drivers on CentOS 7, you need to update the kernel to 5.15 and higher. This option does not suit me because then the drivers on the B120i fall off. As a result, I decided to sort out the drivers before the release of the kernel 5.15. I stopped at Radeon Software for Linux® 18.50 and installed only AMDGPU All-Open. By the way, the versions below do not work.
After that

now I'm testing ffmpeg vaapi options because radeontop shows strange activity
the changes are only in these sensors. the remaining indicators are at zero
