RE: Intel VAAPI howto with Krypton v17 based on Ubuntu 16.04 server - bernid - 2017-11-04
I've just installed kodi 17.5 on Ubuntu server (with the apollo lake Intel 4core celeron processor J3455).
It works but I observe huge CPU usage of kodi process during video playback (about 30-40% 1080p) and 10% when Kodi is idle.
I use setting from first post.
I have some different (as described in the firs post) deinterlace options:
Off, Deinterlace, BOB, VAAPI Motion compensated, VAAPI Motion adopt, VAAPI BOB.
How can I do to relieve the CPU?
Regards,
mesa

Sadly not a Debug Log - I cannot find anything in there.
Btw. for me: 25% when watching 1080i50 content with VAAPI-MCDI.
Idle: 5% to 10% when idleing.
Here comes the important part (IDLE):

It runs on the very lowest frequency. Therefore the "percentage" is not worth much without checking the clocks.

but 10-15% CPU usage when iddle isn't strange?

Nope. Nothing to be afraid of. If you have too much time, check this: https://www.kdab.com/hotspot-gui-linux-perf-profiler/ and report back
RE: Intel VAAPI howto with Krypton v17 based on Ubuntu 16.04 server - Ectholian - 2017-11-04
Quick question: should i still use the ppa:wsnipex/xbmc-fernetmenta-master ppa or is it these days better to stick with the official team-xbmc ppa ?

Thanks.
I'm considering using one machine for home Media Center (Kodi) and the same machine for home router/firewall/file server and other services.
Kodi would be installed on Ubuntu server and other features would be installed on virtual machine runing on host-Ubuntu.
I'am afraid that Kodi's relatively high CPU usage could be an issue when VM will demand more CPU power....

I haven't updated that for a long time. Everything you need is in the nightly ppa. Or the stable one if you want v17.5
RE: Intel VAAPI howto with Krypton v17 based on Ubuntu 16.04 server - Ectholian - 2017-11-05
Thank you, it seemed like that but wasn't sure. Appreciate it.
RE: Intel VAAPI howto with Krypton v17 based on Ubuntu 16.04 server - rvas18 - 2017-11-07
Ugh.... I was messing around trying to see if a distro upgrade would fix my live tv video stuttering. I had been previously using the nightlies builds on 16.04 with good success. I upgraded to 17.10 (do-release-upgrade)
My system is a J4205, 8gb ram, ssd, some hdd's. Nothing fancy. No Kodi log since it does not appear to be starting. My TV is a 4k Hisense 55H7B (kind of curious about the best settings for my tv). My dockers seem to be running fine.
REVERTING THIS SEEMS TO HAVE FIXED MY ISSUE: I have previously setup "Want to boot with AVR / TV powered off? Have a look here: https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=231955&pid=2148505#pid2148505" to try troubleshooting a issue if I let the power settings put my TV to sleep where it would never wake back up without a reboot (didn't work - GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash video=DP-2:1920x1080@60D drm_kms_helper.edid_firmware=DP-2:edid/edid.bin" is the grub line).
I went through the initial setup and verified everything. The one issue I ran into is the "apt install kodi kodi-bin" line. Now it wants to install kodi and kodi-x11 and will not let kodi-bin be installed due to a conflict. Is this a wayland thing? Either way here are my logs (sans kodi and amixer):

RE: Intel VAAPI howto with Krypton v17 based on Ubuntu 16.04 server - jant90 - 2017-11-11
I was wondering if there are any useful or exiting new features or fixes in libva-intel-driver 2.0.0 that was released recently. It just made it to the stable repositories over at Arch Linux
, so I am able to update it conveniently. Now I know it's a different distro but some of the instructions in the OP were useful to get Kodi running and outputting perfectly on my machine (running Manjaro on a J4205) as well. So I believe this thread is also relevant for other Linux distros running Kodi with Intel hardware acceleration.

No :-) - Nothing we need at all. 2.1 will be useful as then we also can provide VAAPI for AMD.

Hi,
I've just installed newest ubuntu server+Kodi on upsquared board. Unfortunately starting kodi ends with the crash.
I use HDMI video output (DP is not used). What should I check?

I've just installed newest ubuntu server+Kodi on upsquared board. Unfortunately starting kodi ends with the crash.
I use HDMI video output (DP is not used). What should I check?

Hi Guys, just need your input, my current intel GPU can't decode HEVC, 10bit, hence I wish to change to one that can, I found this one on ebay, see link below, before go ahead and make purchase, I thought I run the idea by you expert if it worth the efforts, appreciate any input.
Thanks
