RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - gradinaruvasile - 2013-11-28 (2013-11-28, 08:07)fritsch Wrote: @gradinaruvasile: LolDamn. Dont know how i missed that option. It works. I have bob and bob vdpau there. Whats the difference between them? And this option if left to auto interferes with non-interlaced playback (cpu usage and such)? RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - Endeavour79 - 2013-11-28 HDMI Generic Audio lost Not sure if this is a 3.12+ kernel issue or XBMC in general. My config is exactly as written in the howto.. Since an update about two weeks ago XBMC keeps "loosing" the HDMI Generic audio card if idle for a while. When you come back to XBMC and switch menus you can hear a very long-distorted-scratching sound. After reboot the HDMI generic device isn't showing up, only Analog and SPDIF. Only after another reboot the HDMI is back. Logs: (let me know if you need debug version) after restart - no HDMI Generic audio after 2nd restart with the HDMI device found dmesg - working RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - fritsch - 2013-11-28 @Endeavour79: Logfiles please, thx.

See above..thx RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - fritsch - 2013-11-28 Don't forget dmesg. You start xbmc exactly as mentioned in the howto?

Yes, if you didn't change the start script in the last 2 week, then yes, doing exactly what's told in the howto.. I uploaded the working dmesg. Will let XBMC idle a bit and then create the one when it's not working too. RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - HUSKiiBOX - 2013-11-28 (2013-11-28, 11:17)Endeavour79 Wrote: HDMI Generic Audio lost There is a option in audiosettings where you can enable "Steam silence when idle" or something like that. Could it have something to do with that? RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - Kokos - 2013-11-28 Hi guys, Forgive me if this question was already asked, but it's really hard to get through the entire thread.. I use Ubuntu 12.04 because of long term support (I use it also for other server functionalities) -- do you plan to release guide/software for this system or I should rather wait for 14.04 LTS? I'd also be grateful for any guidelines how I could implement current guide steps in 12.04, if it's possible. Thanks guys!

I know it's not on my 4550, and apparently it's not working on universam's 6450(which I was looking at getting before reading that). Nor is it working on mine - HD6950. I've also experienced a worse UVD related crash since: Code: [20945.587790] radeon 0000:01:00.0: couldn't schedule ib After which I had to reboot just to get OpenGL acceleration back! Shame. The image quality is really nice but it isn't anywhere near stable (at least with my card) yet...

DMESG Log file Another minor bug.. Since the changed advancedsettings.xml, XBMC can't show the CPU temperature anymore. RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - fritsch - 2013-11-29 You don't start xbmc as the howto suggests. You use lightdm, which needs special patching to "wait" for the hdmi audio device, which is not subject of this thread See here: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=145451&pid=1322619#pid1322619 (I use the same in my /etc/init/xbmc.conf in thread 1) RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - Endeavour79 - 2013-11-29 (2013-11-29, 00:09)fritsch Wrote: You don't start xbmc as the howto suggests. You use lightdm, which needs special patching to "wait" for the hdmi audio device, which is not subject of this thread Thanks fritsch, I will give it a try! I actually followed the howto but just wasn't aware I am using lightdm instead of your script.. Update: The bug with the distorted sound and disappearing HDMI Generic audio device still exists. XBMC looses the device when running idle some time. |
