No idea - we want to take care that we don't grow a group of lazy people?


RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - Frank-NL - 2015-07-28

Hmm setting up a working system using your guide takes 30 minutes, so you already took care of making our life too easy.


RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - fritsch - 2015-07-28

Oki - will remove some steps :-)

Will update the first post after someone said that they are working.

Working for me too on the C1037UN IVB box.
Some of the details during a running 4K video seem to be more nervous than with a previous build.
C( B 100%-jumping down to 40%) not 70-80%.
But the video has no drops or skips.

That's network related, see: http://kodi.wiki/view/Codecinfo it's the amount of cache filled. I did not see a change there lately.

Is this how to compatible with hdhomerun kodi add-on?:


RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - wsnipex - 2015-07-29

I see no reason to think otherwise.


RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - porkchop999 - 2015-07-30

seems to be running quite well - openelec / mac mini 2014

Hi,

Thx for the nice guide fritsch, but I've got a little problem with my installation.

With my setup (ASRock Q1900TM-ITX with Celeron J1900) I got random freezes while watching LiveTV or videos ....

Does anyone else have these problems oder has the same setup working?

I will paste debug log in the evening when I'm at home ...

Which kernel? You need to have a rather recent kernel version. I think 3.19 should be ok (that Ubuntu 15.04 has).


RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - fritsch - 2015-07-30

Kernel issue ... that was never fully fixed ... sadly: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=88012

I still have some hacked arround kernels here:
Code:
wget https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/55728161/linux-image-3.19.2-legacy%2Bedid%2B_3.19.2-legacy%2Bedid%2B-10.00.Custom_amd64.deb
wget https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/55728161/linux-headers-3.19.2-legacy%2Bedid%2B_3.19.2-legacy%2Bedid%2B-10.00.Custom_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i *3.19.2*deb

thx fritsch, I'll try it when I'm at home ...

Can I try that aswell ?:

GPU not supported for BSW Users:
Code:
mkdir kernel
cd kernel
wget http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.1.3-unstable/linux-headers-4.1.3-040103-generic_4.1.3-040103.201507220129_amd64.deb

sudo dpkg -i *deb
sudo reboot

?? Newer Kernel, Fewer Problems? Big Grin


RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - fritsch - 2015-07-30

You can try everything :-)


RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - Engelsen - 2015-07-30

Yeah, but my wife's gonna kill me if that stupid device got stuck all the time Big Grin ...
