RE: OpenELEC Testbuilds for RaspberryPi Part 2 - Milhouse - 2014-02-05 (2014-02-05, 03:34)nola mike Wrote: Running the storage partition off a USB stick, so maybe that has something to do with it Shouldn't do, as OpenELEC will create any folders it requires each time it boots. Just make sure you're paying attention to the information you've been given - the folders are hidden by default (leading "."), and all the usual folders (including the "Update" folder) will be available to you via SMB. RE: OpenELEC Testbuilds for RaspberryPi Part 2 - Milhouse - 2014-02-05 New OpenELEC Gotham build: #0205 (Supercedes previous build) Code: # uname -a Based on tip of XBMC master (1ac9442, changelog) and tip of OpenELEC master (5fa7980, changelog) with the following modifications:

It should be hardware accelerated, but avoid the blank screen problem when there is a static background.

I've not seen any reported lip sync issues there, so would expect omxplayer to be fine. Feel free to test dvdplayer to see if there's a difference.

That seems a bit odd. Running "free" confirms that 47MB of swap is now in use: Code: rpi512:~ # free Also, activating the codec info display isn't possible from the remote control while playing a DVD ISO with dvdplayer, although it can be activated via JSON (./texturecache,py input showcodec). Edit: Rebooted, and haven't so far been able to reproduce... and now the codec info is also correctly toggling on and off from the remote control.

Using openelec xbmc on my pi latest official nightly gotham: http://mirrors.xbmcnightlybuilds.com/OpenELEC_DEV_BUILDS/RPi/, seems that the sync is not perfect. It's not really noticeable, but if i compare with mpc-hc on windows, it's not as perfect. There is a difference. Also it seems to change on movie. There are times it's sync, others that seem worst. Maybe it's a mkv issue and not properly xbmc. It's just xbmc even on windows always seemed to me not be as perfect as mpc-hc, regarding to lip sync. Maybe i could try different settings on my pi. For now i just connect my pi to my tv via hdmi. Maybe i will buy a sound system later. Also why on openelec there is a default audio delay? http://openelec.tv/forum/68-audio/57509-24p-audio-delay or was at least? I dont know if new versions (gotham) this still remains. But if there is a audio delay by default, it's because xbmc cant handle properly 24p material perfectly, no?

The only problem I had was when opening the top menu and selecting the DVD icon, when playback just stopped (XBMC hadn't frozen though as the debug OSD was still updating). The second rip I couldn't get to work at all though when trying to play the Video_TS.IFO. It works in Media Player Classic on my Windows PC, so doesn't appear to be corrupt. It doesn't appear to be possible to start the rip by pressing play on the name of the parent folder (i.e The Gladiators, which contains the Video_TS subfolder with the actual files in it), only by drilling down to the files and playing from there, so that would be a nice fix to consider. I probably haven't got my remote.xml configured correctly but I couldn't chapter skip, only skip +/- 3min, with either the D-pad Up/Down or the Chapter/Skip buttons. The global section has <skipplus>BigStepForward</skipplus> <skipminus>BigStepBack</skipminus> and FullScreenVideo has <skipplus>BigStepForward</skipplus> <skipminus>BigStepBack</skipminus> but I don't know if there's meant to be a separate section for DVD playback. I had no problem showing the codecinfo when playing the VOB rip with my remote.xml configured to <green>CodecInfo</green> I noticed that there's a folder accessible via SMB (and SCP) names Logfiles, which contains zipped collections of the logs. I'm a bit confused as to when these zips are made, as it appeared that the most recent one was at 11:35, whereas the last entry in the current log was slightly after that at 11:36. I can imagine it zipping up the logs at each boot or something but surely it's not constantly doing this on the fly is it, as I imagine that would be an unnecessary drain on resources? I only noticed this as I was looking for a quicker way of opening the log to paste than having to WinSCP in but it seems .xbmc/temp is exposed via SMB, so this isn't possible.

This is xbmc behaviour. Context-menu then play to play from the DVD folder, or enable stacking (http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=103531) RE: OpenELEC Testbuilds for RaspberryPi Part 2 - doveman2 - 2014-02-05 (2014-02-05, 14:02)popcornmix Wrote: This is xbmc behaviour.

I thought I'd tried this but I guess I only tried it with the 2nd DVD, which doesn't play whatever I do. Would be nice if the Play button did the same thing though, as we have the OK/Enter button for navigating down through the folders and I believe Play works to play the folder contents in other contexts (i.e. where movies are in individual folders and Music folders).

Unfortunately, I still can't play HD channels on dvdplayer.

Whenever i try one of your builds, my USB-DVB-C Stick produces tons of Continuity Errors when running tvheadend service. I dont see these errors with my OpenELEC-3.2-based builds. I also have tried to build OpenELEC-master against kernel-3.10, but this build hangs after successful booting the kernel at "Starting Show version". Does anybody know if there are changes between the used kernels? Or are there any knobs within the newest release which i am not aware of? Best Regards, Andre RE: OpenELEC Testbuilds for RaspberryPi Part 2 - doveman2 - 2014-02-05 @schub I don't know if it's relevant to DVB-C, as I use a DVB-T stick but I had constant continuity errors as well until I disabled Idle Scanning and Full Mux Reception, so you could try that maybe.

You want to enable stacking, which in gotham is now "Combine split video items" in settings/video/file lists.

Was it definitely xbmc's memory usage that had increased (rather than some other process)? |
