Hi votadini,
Looking at the latest quarterly release, it seems like your libva and libva-intel-vaapi-driver are up-to-date! Your system, and all applications installed from Ubuntu repositories, will utilize those libraries.
Assuming your media player supports VAAPI, you will have hardware-accelerated video playback to the extent supported by your underlying hardware. The last FAQ question provides a brief summary.
If you require further assistance getting a VAAPI-supported media player up and running, I identified a few good hits on my web search for 'ubuntu vaapi', or feel free start a discussion on the Graphics Power Users forum, and we'll help you.
Cheers
I followed the installation directions, but can only see green screens whenever a vaapi enabled player decodes video. When vaapi is disabled, videod decode is fine. Any ideas? I've verified that the latest drivers are installed.
How can we verify that we have correctly installed the Intel Graphics Drivers and that they are being used by the system instead of the drivers provided with the operating system?
