@AJB999
I hope my guide helped you, I've added some lines to be more clear that you have to initialize ATI configuration outside of the Xsession, and also for Black borders

@gfisher:
Take a look at:
http://youresuchageek.blogspot.fr/search/label/Backup
My "main users" do not accept any XBMC downtime
So the way i proceed is in deed simple, i have 2 system partitions, the second is cloned from the first with a N-1 version, from time to time when i plan an important upgrade (that's all a process ^^) i clone my install.In case of trouble, i don't even have to downgrade but just to set to automatically boot to the backup install, then i can later correct and achieve my upgrade

Thx fritsch!
As usual, perfect support!!!
RE: Howto Install XBMC PVR Xvba for AMD/ATI Radeon and Fusion GPUs - rea1ity - 2012-09-26
hi,
i have the latest version installed from xbmc-xvba on a rl70. everything is working fine other than music playback, which pauses at odd intervals. when it pauses, the debug log prints:
DEBUG: CSoftAEStream::GetFrame - Underrun
any ideas on how this can be fixed to get stutterless playback? the music is mostly flacs with a few mp3s thrown in.
a debug log is at: http://xbmclogs.com/show.php?id=9354
happy to provide any other information.
cheers.

@rea1ity:
AE is under heavy development. We expect to make new packages tomorrow after some very critical bugs have been sorted out. If it works fine for our testing - we will update xbmc-xvba version with this testing version.
So thanks for your report - I hope it was fixed upstream.
RE: Howto Install XBMC PVR Xvba for AMD/ATI Radeon and Fusion GPUs - rea1ity - 2012-09-26
@fritsch:
thanks for the update. i'll keep an eye out for the new packages and take them for a spin.
cheers.

@guilmxm thanks. The cloning tut looks very good.

About the 9.0.0 Release:
There are currently three versions out there:
1.) 9.0.0 Embedded Version with String: 9.00-120815a-147115C-ATI Kernel-Module Date: August 15
2.) 9.0.0 12.9 Beta Version with String: 9.00-120815a-147115C-ATI Kernel-Module Date: August 15
-> These two are completely the same - but only different control files
3.) 9.0.0 Quantal Version with String: 9.00.11-120920a-147436C-ATI Kernel-Module Date: September 20
Quantal Versionis more than one month newer than the other versions. Very irritating all that stuff and versioning.
RE: Howto Install XBMC PVR Xvba for AMD Radeon/Fusion and Nvidia GPUs - gfisher - 2012-09-29
@fritsch. Thanks so embedded I downloaded for my a4 apu was not right? Is beta quantal better? Embedded was tearing... I agree they have a versioning issue.
RE: Howto Install XBMC PVR Xvba for AMD Radeon/Fusion and Nvidia GPUs - fritsch - 2012-09-29
@gfisher:
Embedded was fine. Beta was also fine. The newest and "best" is the Quantal Version. It makes suspend working for me. But - concerning XVBA there is no real advantage over 12.6 or 12.8 yet. Though(!) beginning with 9.0.0 a new internal XVBA API version is shipped. As there is no new SDK for it - no new features can be used.
You can easily build the quantal version on Precise - best is: just wait :-)

@fritsch
Hi, thanks, could you confirm the link to last Beta version (quantal):
http://www2.ati.com/drivers/beta/amd-driver-installer-12-9-beta-x86.x86_64.zip
How do you get this version string ?
RE: Howto Install XBMC PVR Xvba for AMD Radeon/Fusion and Nvidia GPUs - fritsch - 2012-09-29
@guilmxm:
Quantal Version I have downloaded via packages.ubuntu.com It is not in the normal ".run" file form. I repackaged the debian package via dpkg-buildpackage.
The version you have linked is the official "beta" - that is one month older than what currently is in quantal.
the kernel modul version, you get by doing: dmesg |grep fglrx
The other version string (if correctly updated (aticonfig --initial -f)) you can get via:
sudo amdconfig --get-pcs-key=LDC,ReleaseVersion

Ok thanks! Why would ATI make things simple when that's so funny to make it hard ^^
