Failed installation VAAPI with VDPAU backend and gststreamer version 1.10.4

llama
Hello,

I have a problem installing gstreamer-vaapi plugins with gstreamer build from source.

I have GeForce GTX 1080 and nvidia driver 375.

I made a test to install gstreamer base, bad, etc., vaapi plugins from .deb  packages. On ubuntu 16.04 there is pakgs of gstreamer with version 1.8.3. It installs vaapi decoder/encoder plugins. I saw that for vaapi package there is packaged one .so file and everything seems to work.

Than i used gstreamer-1.10.4 from Freedesktop.org. to install gstreamer, plugins base, bad, etc., vaapi. Vaapi ./configure does not show any errors, make and make install with no errors, but gst-inspect-1.0 | grep vaapi returns nothing.

gst-inspect-1.0 vaapi shows me the plugin details with 0 features below.

What may be wrong with vaapi plugins with VDPAU backend. What can test or do ?
Is there anyone having similar problem.

Thanks in advance!

The VDPAU driver for VAAPI[1] is unmaintained, and many use-cases fail. Thus
gstreamer-vaapi has a white-list of drivers[2] that can work with, and
va-vdpau-driver is not in that list. That's why `gst-inspect-1.0 vaapi` shows
zero elements.

If you still want to try it, export the variable GST_VAAPI_ALL_DRIVERS=1, but
you are on your own.
