Hardware rendering doesn't always initialize #278

Open raphaelventura opened 9 months ago

raphaelventura commented 9 months ago

Hi,

It happens quite often that my firefox is unable to initialize hw video acceleration properly.

Here are two sequences of error messages I get inside the about:config tab.

(#0) Error  Failed to create EGLSurface!: 0x3003
(#1) Error  Failed to create EGLSurface. 4 renderers, 3 active.
(#2) Error  Handling webrender error 3
(#3) Error  GFX: RenderThread detected a device reset in PostUpdate
(#4) Error  Failed to make render context current during destroying.
(#5) Error  Failed to make render context current during destroying.
(#6) Error  GFX: RenderThread detected a device reset in PostUpdate
(#7) Error  Failed to make render context current during destroying.
(#8) Error  Failed to make render context current during destroying.
(#0) Error  Failed to create EGLSurface!: 0x3003
(#1) Error  Failed to create EGLSurface. 4 renderers, 1 active.
(#2) Error  Handling webrender error 3
(#3) Error  Fallback WR to SW-WR

My HW config:

Environment variables:

VDPAU_DRIVER=nvidia
LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=nvidia
NVD_BACKEND=direct
MOZ_DISABLE_RDD_SANDBOX=1

vainfo output:

      VAProfileH264ConstrainedBaseline: VAEntrypointVLD

The following variables are set as stated in the README

Any clues on what may go wrong ? Thanks

Exact same issue here

It looks like you are still using the EGL backend. Maybe the environment variable for the backend isn't working?

What is the output of env NVD_BACKEND=direct vainfo

Hello, I think I'm on the same boat.

This is the output of VDPAU_DRIVER=nvidia LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=nvidia NVD_BACKEND=direct DISPLAY=:0 vainfo --display drm --device /dev/dri/renderD128:

I guess we are missing VAEntrypointEncSlice and VAEntrypointEncSliceLP?

VAEntrypointEnc is for NVENC to encode video, this driver does not support NVENC yet.

See #116

Please set NVD_BACKEND=direct in your etc/environment file and reboot, as the egl backend does not work on your driver version.

Also please set gfx.x11-egl.force-enabled=false in your Firefox settings

Oh now I see that in my first message, vainfo showed the egl backend was active, which is weird since the env variable was already set in my /etc/environment. Maybe I'd unset it by mistake after boot and before printing the output. I've edited this first message.

As for the gfx.x11-egl.force-enabled=false, I'd understood from this reply that I should set it to true anyway.

nathansmeal commented 8 months ago

Yeah my bad on the Firefox, keep that set to true.

Do you still have issues even with the direct backend?

raphaelventura commented 8 months ago

Yes, still the same error messages in the about:support tab:
