[Bug 1364490] [NEW] Firefox crashes when Fluendo codecs are installed and system is VAAPI capable

 

Public bug reported:

We at Fluendo have received some bug reports about crashes in Firefox
when HTML5 is used on Intel with VAAPI support enabled in Ubuntu 14.04
systems.

I've tracked down the problem and it seems to be a bug in libva which is
already fixed in master [1]. Would be possible have this fix backported
?

Although we only received bug reports related to Firefox I think it's
probably affecting several other applications so I believe that it
should be fixed for the long term supported Ubuntu 14.04
