The libvdpau-va-gl package contains a library which implements the VDPAU library. Libvdpau_va_gl uses OpenGL under the hood to accelerate drawing and scaling and the VA-API (if available) to accelerate video decoding. For now VA-API is available on some Intel chips, and on some AMD video adapters with the help of the libvdpau driver.

Install libvdpau-va-gl by running the following commands:
mkdir build && cd build && cmake -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$XORG_PREFIX .. && make
To test the results, issue: make check. The tests must be run from an Xorg environment.
Now, as the root user:
make install
First clean the build directory:
rm -rf *
Install lib32-libvdpau-va-gl by running the following commands:
CC="gcc -m32" CXX="g++ -m32" \
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$XORG_PREFIX/lib32/pkgconfig \
cmake -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
-D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$XORG_PREFIX \
.. &&
make
Now, as the root user:
make DESTDIR=$PWD/DESTDIR install cp -vr DESTDIR/$XORG_PREFIX/lib/* $XORG_PREFIX/lib32 rm -rf DESTDIR ldconfig
To allow libvdpau to find libvdpau-va-gl, set an environment
variable as the root user:
echo "export VDPAU_DRIVER=va_gl" >> /etc/profile.d/xorg.sh
