fyi, pushed another update to my github branch.. seeking seems to be working better now. Also cleaned up a bit some buffer refcnt'ing stuff so we don't get buffers freed/recycled while the renderer still has 'em.

 2011-12-15 17:18 CuBox from Solid-Run with Marvell Armada 510 / PXA510 800MHz SoC for XBMC on Linux?
Post: #652
CuBox by Solid-Run could be a great ARM and OpenGL ES development platform for XBMC on Linux?
http://www.solid-run.com/products/cubox http://www.linuxfordevices.com/c/a/News/SolidRun-CuBox/ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=twEoMYEJls4 it is relatively inexpensive at €99 and you do not need to buy any additional hardware for it  They say to already have XBMC for Ubuntu Linux running on it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=twEoMYEJls4 http://www.solid-run.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=5 http://www.solid-run.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=4 Quote:Typically a distro that supports ARMv7 and VFPv3-d16 instruction sets would be best, in order to get best performance. Marvell Armada 510 / PXA510 SoC it uses seams little special http://www.marvell.com/application-proce.../index.jsp http://www.linuxfordevices.com/c/a/News/...-and-1000/ Quote:Because Marvell is not only an ARM processor licensee, but also an architecture licensee, it has the right to take ARM-designed cores and use it in SoCs of its own devising. This is precisely what the chipmaker has done with its newly announced Armada products, creating its own, unique Sheeva designs.

Could we use that code or adapt it with Raspberry Pi or Pandora Board?

Hi guys,
I have to say thanks to those who have contributed so much already for making xbmc work with the pandaboard. I am trying to build xbmc from robclarks github repo (gstreamer-eglimg branch) for my pandaboard rev A2, but I get the same message I have gotten a few other times I have tried to compile xmbc with openmax support (from various branches of xbmc). My config settings: ./configure --enable-neon --disable-vdpau --disable-optical-drive --enable-gles --enable-gstreamer The error messages from compile time: OpenMaxVideo.cpp:81:30: error invalid use of incomplete type 'struct COpenMaxVideo' DVDVideoCodec.h:41:7: error forward declaration of 'struct COpenMaxVideo' .... I have installed libomxil-bellagio0 libomxil-bellagio-dev libomxil-bellagio-components-base I am running latest Linaro 11.11 build. I have also installed stuff from https://launchpad.net/~tiomap-dev/+archive/release, but there seems to be dependency problems for gstreamer0.10-faac and ubuntu-omap4-extras in that (faac/libfaac) >=1.28 is not installed on linaro 11.11 I managed to compile a working version off the earlier gstreamer branch by topfs in june/july, but somehow I don't remember how to get around these error messages. Any help and guidance appreciated. |

Fwiw, I didn't have omx installed or enabled when I built, so you might try removing bellagio or at least disabling omx support when you configure

robclark Wrote:Fwiw, I didn't have omx installed or enabled when I built, so you might try removing bellagio or at least disabling omx support when you configure Ah, yeah you are right. That did it, but I thought one were supposed to use OpenMax with Pandaboard? However, when I start xbmc it segfaults after warning messages: (FEH.py:3674):Gtk-WARNING **:Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "pixmap", ... I guess the warning messages has nothing to do with the segfault itself so I will investigate this further. Might be because I don't have ubuntu-omap4-extras packages installed, due to conflicting faac/libfaac versions? |

Nope, no omx in 11.10 pfbach Wrote:However, when I start xbmc it segfaults after warning messages: I see the warning too, but not the segfault, so I think unrelated.. but you probably will need ubuntu-omap4-extras, as there might be some issues in some cases w/ sw decoders. But I think gst-ducati and gst-plugins-base you might still need to build from the git trees at http://gitorious.org/gstreamer-omap (ti branch in case of gst-plugins-base), since I think what is in the PPA hasn't been updated yet. |

Ok, thanks. I figured out the conflict issue. I needed to enable multiverse repo in apt, so now I have installed ubuntu-omap4-extras. I will build gst-ducati and gst-plugins-base and see if that will help. |

In the meantime new model of Raspbery PI has arrived, and it looks pretty good http://www.raspberrypi.org/archives/431
