jmpa Wrote:I format my revo 3610 and installed xbmc beta 2 and video keep stutter a little.. Some drops... I am almost sure eden beta 1 or dharma works much better than eden beta 2...


EDIT - Thanks PatrickBateman now it is playing well, no framedrops

Your welcome, now go have some fun watching movies

To have cpufreq scaling working on ubuntu, use this script to patch p4-clockmod.ko:

#/bin/sh

kv=$( uname -a | awk '{ print $3 }')
module="/lib/modules/$kv/kernel/drivers/cpufreq/p4-clockmod.ko"
if [ ! -e "$module" ] ; then
echo "Module $module not found"
fi

echo "Search pattern"
l=$( xxd -c 1 ${module} | awk '{ i++; a=b; b=c; c=d ; d=$2; if (a == "81" && b == "96" && c == "98" && d == "00") print i-3; }')
if [ "$?" != "0" ] ; then
exit 1
fi

if [ -z "$l" ] ; then
echo "Pattern not found"
exit 1
fi

xxd -c 1 $module | awk -v l=$l '{ i++; if (i == l) { print $1 " 40 ." } else if (i == l+1) { print $1 " 42 ." } else if (i == l+2) { print $1 " 0f ." } else { print $0}}' > ${module}.hex
if [ "$?" != "0" ] ; then
exit 1
fi

if [ ! -e "${module}.bak" ] ; then
echo "Create backup ${module}.bak"
mv $module ${module}.bak || exit 1
fi

xxd -c 1 -r ${module}.hex ${module}
if [ "$?" != "0" ] ; then
cat ${module}.bak > ${module}
exit 1
fi
