I installed vanilla F42 on my new AMD Thinkpad. Everything is working. I got hardware acceleration to work in Firefox, VLC, and MPV. Celluloid is the only program that doesn’t work with hardware acceleration, even though it’s supposed to use MPV as a backend.
I installed almost all of the video codecs.
Then, I attempt the following in celluloid:
Preferences > Config Files tab > Enabled ‘Load mpv configuration file’
Navigate to the location of your mpv.conf file (e.g., ~/.config/mpv/mpv.conf).
Select the file and confirm.
However, the configuration is lost when the Preferences window is closed.
I tried using the “Extra MPV Options” field with hwdec=vaapi, but it didn’t enable hardware acceleration.
Has anyone here succeeded in making it work in Celluloid?
