Description Luke 2016-04-30 16:08:04 UTC
Getting error when try to play mp4 movie: "An error occurred Could not initialize supporting library" and here is a log info. It looks like i965_drv_video.so does not exist... however I can see /usr/lib64/dri/i965_dri.so lib.

what's the output of `vainfo`? 

You have to install the utility if you don't have it.
