Yeah - it won't get better as that :-)

50fps @ 1080p is the bare maximum an E350 can do.

Thanks!

I have just installed xubuntu 14.04, and followed the procedure described on the first page of this thread.

...

3. in my dual monitor setup with 23" lcd monitor and 42" Panasonic plasma (reported as "Panasonic 32"" in xcfe, btw motherboard e350, RAM 4 GB ), when playing xbmc on panasonic I don't see the whole picture. If I open firefox in full screen, I cannot se the file menu (the picture starts with Edit menu), and I cannot see the title bar. The same is with the bottom of the screen as well.
On panasonic, overscan is turned off. I read in the previous posts that xrandr could be used as a solution, but I haven't tried it yet.

The same setup works with no problem with xubuntu 12.04 and glrfx drivers.

I ought to admit that I have mistakenly reported this problem.
Someone in my house (I am still interrogating all of them in order to... Smile) has changed aspect ratio on the tv.
This problem existed only in my head. Sorry for misreporting.

Regards.

Hello. I have a e350-based nettop connected to the Panasonic plasma 42" via Denon receiver. Something wrong with detecting tv-resolutions. When i had add new modeline to xorg.conf i've got overscanned 1920x1080p@60 but loose any sound. Soz i'am not native English and newbee at all. Thanks in advance!

RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - fritsch - 2014-04-29

Yeah, again a Denon that makes trouble:
Quote: [ 4555.409817] [drm:radeon_dvi_detect] *ERROR* HDMI-A-1: probed a monitor but no|invalid EDID

Head over to bugs.freedesktop.org please and try to file that bug accordingly. You can test my 3.14.2 kernel from some pages back.

Why not pass the argument to sensors ? I have the same problem. Not only that. It can't pick up the CPU temperature as well if I simply copy and paste the one in OP (there is an extra 'Temp' in my output)

jkl@xbmc:~$ sensors

k8temp-pci-00c3
Adapter: PCI adapter

Core1 Temp: +33.0°C

radeon-pci-0300
Adapter: PCI adapter
temp1: +34.5°C (crit = +120.0°C, hyst = +90.0°C)

jkl@xbmc:~$ sensors radeon-pci-0300
radeon-pci-0300
Adapter: PCI adapter
temp1: +35.0°C (crit = +120.0°C, hyst = +90.0°C)

jkl@xbmc:/home/xbmc$ sensors radeon-pci-0300|sed -ne "s/temp1: \+[-+]\([0-9]\+\).*/\1 C/p"
44 C


RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - Ectholian - 2014-04-29

I use this one on my e350:

<cputempcommand>sensors k10temp-pci-00c3 | sed -ne "s/temp1: \+[-+]\([0-9]\+\).*/\1 C/p"</cputempcommand>
<gputempcommand>sensors radeon-pci-0008 | sed -ne "s/temp1: \+[-+]\([0-9]\+\).*/\1 C/p"</gputempcommand>

Now i am on 3.14.2-amdfixes5+ and your marantz edid. Works fine after switching resolutions in XBMC interface.

Also a have a very noob question - any idea how to stop then start XBMC gently through SSH because my nettop using as Apple Time Machine, torrent-box and for power saving?


RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - fritsch - 2014-04-29

sudo service xbmc stop

i do like this better! much cleaner syntax!
well done Nod


RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - Ectholian - 2014-05-01

It's just a copy/paste from the first post; i only added the sensor parameters for cpu and gpu. A lot easier than trying to make a regex working for everything Smile


RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - dirtydesaster - 2014-05-03

how can i update to trusty?

Only with "sudo do release-upgrade" or is a fresh install better?


RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - fritsch - 2014-05-03

ppa-purge all the added repositories first
then do the release-upgrade
then readd the ppas and just run the first apt-get install command again.

New installation is simpler, yes.
