Nightly images for A64, H3, H5, H6 and R40 boards

    • Official Post

    I recorded the sample from Tvheadend stream on PC-VLC player (attached here https://drive.google.com/open?…etb97bjmkyyvvnw6vf26l-mni). I tried to stream this HD channel directly to my H series TV Samsung (non-HEVC prcessor) and to my surprise it is capable to play it without problems. I guess it can be something with video stream processing in KODI....?

    More likely explanation is that re-encoding happened in between, which would change codec features used in video file. I'm not sure how to correctly get unchanged DVB video as I don't have DVB experiences, but you can try with ffmpeg. Nice thing in ffmpeg is that you can specify that it only copies video stream with "-c:v copy -c:a copy".

  • Latest nightlies should work better regarding that due to higher mali clock frequency.

    I tried the latest nightly, but unforunately the GUI fluidity is far from the Amlogic S905X.

    And I have an another question, the deinterlacing when will it be in testable state?

  • Hi!

    With the last image stopped working 4 USB ports on the end of the board. Only side port 3.0 works. I thought the chip burned, but when I put the last Armbian image in it all works fine.


    yes, clearly a ffmpeg or Cedrus driver problem, but as I answered to any "playback issue" post, give me the short sample, which exhibits the issue.

    I'll be sending you a sample video shortly. Because for 65" I would like to use 4k BD-remux format, but it does not show correctly. The sound is coming, but the video is a solid green screen.


    Thx!

  • I'll take a look.

    This one works for me just fine (OrangePi 3, 1 GiB of RAM).

    You surprised me and I decided to check again. What I found out. I sent you a screensaver file from BD-remux. And if you go to the BD-remux folder and run the file directly with a clean board load, the file is played. But if you run either by clicking the play button on the folder or by running the main movie file, which weighs 60GB, everything will be green. I even recorded the video as it happens to make it clear.

    Green screen means that driver crashed HW and from that point on, all movies coded with same codec, will be played as green. I suppose there is an issue, just not with this particular video.


    EDIT: you can just cut first 50 MiB of that 0002.m2ts and I think it will still cause same issue. I certainly don't need 60 GiB of it :)

    i can attach torrent of bd remux if it's possible here


    MOD: attachment removed

  • None, because 1) all relevant changes are already in LibreELEC github and 2) nightlies are not released by me but by LE buildbot. Just use official LibreELEC github master and you're good to go.


    I rebased my changes onto current LibreELEC Maser and now i can't compile it because there is no gpu-sunix drivers on master and getbuildplan.py failing to collect dependencies :( Am I doing something wrong?

  • hello

    i run an orange pi pc plus and i would like to know if we can expect one day to have an eMMC install script ?

    opi run so well with kodi and i dont need anything else ..

    Anyway thanks for this marvelous job:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

    You missed something, because gpu-sunxi doesn't exist for some time now. It's replaced by mali-utgard package and it's selected as dependency automatically. I don't know what your changes are, but I would just remove this dependency.

    As I stated few post above, there are no deadlines for any feature. In principle, you can just flash image to eMMC via ssh and it should work. Somebody wrote quick guide in this topic how to do that.

  • I tested Orange Pi one plus, that is no audio on HDMI right channel. It works on Android. Please advice.

  • ilchenko Fix for USB3 is prepared. I will probably open PR later this day, just have to test it on all H6 boards I have.

    Good news!) Thx for fast reaction!


    PS if the BD-remux had been a little fix, then I'd be completely happy))))

    Here is the relevant PR if you want to build it yourself: Allwinner: Fix USB3 support by jernejsk · Pull Request #3730 · LibreELEC/LibreELEC.tv · GitHub

    As I said, I can look into that if I have a sample which triggers the issue. Torrents are not allowed here and I really don't want to have 60 GiB sample. Video files are usually still playable if you cut them at arbitrary length, so why don't you just copy about 50 MiB of that video file and send me a link over private message?
