vaapi intel-driver (vaapi-ext): assertion failed

[Christoph Evers <mail@christoph-evers.de>]

Hi folks,

i am not sure whether this issue belongs to the libva mailinglist or 
this one. I'll give it a try :-)

For testing purpose I switched to vaapi-ext branch of intel-driver and 
libva (master is working fine).

I am using xine-lib-vaapi for playback with xine which uses a vaapi 
accelerated ffmpeg: https://github.com/huceke/xine-lib-vaapi

H.264 (non interlaced) files are played fine, but with MPEG2 
(interlaced/non-interlaced) the vaapi intel driver throws an exception:

> xine: i965_drv_video.c:2075: i965_check_alloc_surface_bo: assertion 
> obj_surface->fourcc == fourcc failed.

Obviously, the obj_surface fourcc (NV12) does not fit to the fourcc of 
the media (I420).

If I force NV12 in i965_media_mpeg2.c:517 playback is working (even 
deinterlaced on Clarkdale) but naturally with the wrong color space.

Do you guys have any idea?

Christoph
