RE: How to Install XBMC PVR Xvba for AMD/Nvidia/Intel GPUs - Redfoox - 2013-09-23
I didn't do anything
.But from your reaction this should be removed?
Sorry I don't know much about this, stil trying to learn
RE: How to Install XBMC PVR Xvba for AMD/Nvidia/Intel GPUs - fritsch - 2013-09-23
Yes, and add the other stuff. -> #xbmc-xvba if I tell you every command, that forum thread is spammed.
RE: How to Install XBMC PVR Xvba for AMD/Nvidia/Intel GPUs - MTroi - 2013-09-24
Hey guys,
still can't believe it is happening, open source driver radeon beats out the proprietary one regarding video decoding. I've got it all running on my E-350 System, although I chose the 3.12 kernel instead of 3.11.1. As I watched a 1080p movie, both CPUs display 10-25% load, just like the load under fglrx and my HD 3D movies were also played nicely. BTW nice menu in this xvba-testing, giving you the choice how to play a 3D movie.
What I've noticed was that the pause&resume for caused the movie to flicker heavily (Star Trek - Into Darkness 1080p), seems that something got out of sync. Anyone else noticing this?

Anyone else noticing this?Yes I did also noticed that on few occasions, but not every time I pause & play. Seeking might also need some work as it takes some time to fill the buffer back again and resync. Playing x264 10bit content where there is no GPU acceleration I do not see such a problems.

What exactly are you refering to? I'm quite sure, that I did all of that, except the kernel 3.11.1

Relax, you will get your debug log from me this evening. I neglected my girlfriend for setting it all up, so I made it up to her by watching a movie with her nearly right away.
At least you can have a look at the dmesg output:
dmesg pastebin
RE: How to Install XBMC PVR Xvba for AMD/Nvidia/Intel GPUs - nichiren - 2013-09-24
All right, more tinkering with a bit fresher mind.
The clicking during playback went away by using a patched kernel as fritsch suggested.
So for now it seems that there is only the other annoyance to solve (or ignore), the double action triggered by one physical keypress every now and then hasn't gone away but it might be more to do with XBMC update from xbmc-xvba-frodo to xbmc-xvba-testing than the driver change. Still, I tried to catch it in a debug log but I could not make it happen while debug logging was enabled. It still occurs with both IR remote and via CEC.
Otherwise XBMC seems to be working nicely, I'll be using the system to see if anything worth investigating comes up.

For checking VDPAU before firing up XBMC.. and it worked for me. But it doesn't mean it's needed.

If you get this - no hw accel will work with oss uvd and vdpau. Does not matter how hard you try :-)
RE: How to Install XBMC PVR Xvba for AMD/Nvidia/Intel GPUs - l00p - 2013-09-24
haven't had the time to install the OSS driver, will do as i have it.
for the users with clicking sound when watching MKV, but not with MPG vor mp3...
please try to set audio to analog, but keep the output at HDMI, this was helping me some time ago.
RE: How to Install XBMC PVR Xvba for AMD/Nvidia/Intel GPUs - deadite66 - 2013-09-24
reinstalled raring again but with x64 and installed fritsch's fixed kernel, audio clicking has now gone.
sigh, now the fun of trying to move my mythtv database over
RE: How to Install XBMC PVR Xvba for AMD/Nvidia/Intel GPUs - MTroi - 2013-09-24
So here we go with the requested files:
dmesg output:
DMESG Output
And the XBMC logfile:
xbmc.log
I've started the movie and then jumped a few seconds/minutes forward, that happened after 19:16:51 (Watching Star Trek - Into Darkness).
Regarding vdpauinfo: If vdpau wouldn't be able to use my GPU, my CPU would run nuts and the movie would not be watchable with low CPU load like it is. So I'd say it works nonetheless.

Do you know where the famous original patch came from? Cause 13.8 beta2 compiles without any patch on 3.10 and 3.11 - so it was shipped by AMD?
