- topfs2 - 2011-06-22 awesome, so they have fixed the dev packages. Was a while since I last compiled, will revisit now as it was a major pita to reinstall every time you compiled - tarzan23 - 2011-06-22 @christian667: How long did it take to compile xbmc trunk on the pandaboard? Compiling now... (on ubuntu 11.04 on the board itself, no cross compilation). - christian667 - 2011-06-22 @tarzan23: Oh it took about 4 hours for me i think, but i did it nearly everytime over night, so I'm not quite sure. Are you compiling the official git or the opdenkamp pvr-git? - tarzan23 - 2011-06-22 I'm using the official git. I'll try to setup my server for cross compiling for the pandaboard, 8x X5570 > omap 4430 . @topfs2: first of all thank you for the great work you are doing . regarding hardware acceleration, is the gstreamer backend (https://github.com/topfs2/xbmc/commits/gstreamer) useable, and are you planning on hooking up gst-ducati/libdce and your xbmc gstreamer backend? - christian667 - 2011-06-22 @topfs2: Do you have visualizations in case of music playing? Doesn't matter which visualization method I select, nothing is displayed.. :confused2: - topfs2 - 2011-06-22 @tarzan23 ideally anything able to accelerate gstreamer (totem for example) should work in there. However the current design in dvdp makes it really hard, if not impossible, to make this possible in mainline. Thr gstreamer branch i have is just a teat. It works on h264 for me on desktop but haven't tried on panda, in theory it should work. @christian667 vissualizers uses standard gl so they won't work until ported. - Robotica - 2011-06-23 tarzan23 Wrote:I'm using the official git.

See this: http://www.madeo.co.uk/?p=783 But it is on Meego. - tarzan23 - 2011-06-23 Thanks for the info! I'll provide feedback as soon as i got xbmc up, currently i'm moving my root fs to a usb harddisk hoping for better performance (all sd cards i tried seem to perform quite poor). - tarzan23 - 2011-06-23 Compiled nicely with: Code: --enable-gles --disable-vdpau --disable-optical-drive --enable-ccache --enable-nfs Unfortunatly the binary segfaults: Code: tarzan@panda:/usr/local/lib/xbmc$ gdb ./xbmc.bin Edit: Christian667's fix to MatrixGLES.c solves this problem. - christian667 - 2011-06-23 My main interest in using the XBMC on the pandaboard is to watch TV using the VNSI VDR plugin. The VDR runs like a charm, even watchable from other clients over wifi, but the fresh compiled pandaboard xbmc shows an uncloseable info dialog saying the plugin could not be loaded. The log says: Code: 14:29:19 T:1332507648 M:405499904 DEBUG: PVR - Create - creating PVR add-on instance 'VDR VNSI Client' Does anybody know what the bad status (4) means? Is it documented anywhere? The same git clone works on a i386 machine BTW native compiling needs 3h and 45 minutes - tarzan23 - 2011-06-23 Try using ccache to speed up subsequent builds. - topfs2 - 2011-06-23 christian667 Wrote:My main interest in using the XBMC on the pandaboard is to watch TV using the VNSI VDR plugin.

Better ask that question in the PVR forum, its probably not related to ARM - christian667 - 2011-06-23 nice idea but the build is now installed, so I would like to prevent new building in the near future I've really no idea what Code: bad status (4) EDIT: @topfs2 Sorry you're right - wrong place - tarzan23 - 2011-06-24 Great, my board has a defective HDMI port... I'll continue as soon as i get a new board... - madmalkav - 2011-06-24 dandel Wrote:and as a quick note, the OpenGL ES libs are definately included with the root packages (I verified this by looking at the file, arm-buildroot-2010.05-2010-10-12-10.00--svn1957.tgz) the main note is that the build root source tree under 'buildroot-(Release)/package/opengl' You can get more recent sources if you mail amlogic asking for git access . |
