The video has no improvement. When I play a video file, I still see nothing but hearing the sound only.
I found the information in my xbmc.log after running ./xbmc.bin:

You run the netbook-preinstalled do you? So you should select after booting the board "ubuntu classic" in GDM and try to play a file with the help of totem or mplayer..
EDIT:
@joyhsieh:
how did you compile the xbmc? ./configure..?

christian667 Wrote:Great, where to find the patches and where to apply them?
https://xbmc.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/xbmc/branches/gsoc-2010-beagleboard/
Somewhere in the hundreds of patches I made
Its not a single patch and the fixes are spread out. If you aren't comfortable to find them in there its better to wait until I get to it, which I plan to have done in time for eden.
- christian667 - 2011-06-29 13:50
wuaaai - don't you have a collection of patches?
To figure out the diff's between the git and the gsoc release is nearly impossible for someone who didn't write that code ^^
Isn't there one or two "monsterpatches" that improve playback a "little"?
For me it would be enough to play sd content smooth for the first steps...

I have tried
./configure --enable-gles
./configure --enable-gles --disable-optical-drive
Both of them result in the same problem.

Thats why I haven't done it yet, I haven't had time to yank out the interesting parts and produce a patch. Its development, if you aren't comfortable with finding the patch in the code (or know how to code
) you should probably wait until I get a chance to do it.If it was easy and I had a specific patch I could have just as easily pushed it to master now couldn't I
- christian667 - 2011-06-29 14:12
Oh yeah this is obvious...
Mh I know how to code but I'm not familiar with the xbmc one.
Is there a direction to look at? Any folder somehow?
If I find the time (and skill..) to figure out the impovements you did,
i promiss to push back patches...
@joyhsieh:
For me compiling as described in my post on the last pages worked quite well without any problems, but i use the opdenkamp source.
You all may have a look at this:

Just search android tv cortex a9 in alibaba and you will see a few manufactures selling various versions all with the amlogic soc. I need to solder a max3232 chip to my board now.
Hi ps2chiper,
Would you be able to get hold of tablet based on Amlogic AML-8726M like Ramos W10 or its clones to see if you can boot linux provided by amlogic straight from them?
Apparently retail version of what you got like A3 from Mygica or A100 from geniatech are just too hard to find even in China. The Amlogic AML-8726M tablet has similar specs in terms of CPU, GPU, DSP and Memory but its very popular in China and this means you can get it easily with dirty cheap price ($100 for a Ramos W10 clone).
If someone can get xmbc running on devices based on Amlogic AML-8726 with reasonable speed and performance I may well tempted to replace my ageing ATV1 with that.

I have no idea that why the program told me it can't find avfilter-1-arm.so, which is just at the position it wants.
Maybe the source is really an issue. I am going to try the opdenkamp source.

I don't want to turn this into a sales channel, but I think this is what you want. Its a shame that the bom cost of the amlogic is about 30 dollars and they raise the price to 169 on amazon. But thats life.
