XBMC on Tegra2 development: Porting XBMC for Linux to NVIDIA Tegra 2 ARM SoC platform

danips · 2011-04-26 19:53

Hello,
I have been testing the tvheadend addon on the Tegra (with the latest xbmc from https://github.com/opdenkamp/xbmc) with the tvheadend backend on another PC. I have noticed that it takes ages to get the channel list and the epg data. Has anyone else tried?

I add the log if you want to see the timings:

Has anybody gotten their hands on a Trim Slice yet?

This little Tegra2-powered nettop could make an awesome XBMC frontend once the software support materializes. I plan to order one once they are available again.

Has this project gone dead?

Has anyone looked at compiling for use on the advent vega?

I have not done much activity with this recently unfortunately. I still believe that it will continue to be useful as more and more hardware comes out.

Looks like a few developers are now actively working on making XBMC run on MeeGo for Smart TV platform on Trim-Slice NVIDIA Tegra ARM devices Smile

Hope someone makes sure that some of that code gets ported upstream to XBMC Big Grin

MeeGo died today.

Yes just read the news that MeeGo will slowly be phased out and replaced by Tizen during 2012, wonder if the same guys will port XBMC to it instead.

Tizen does read like a very interesting on its own for XBMC, but it sounds to me like they won't like to see any software that doesn't support HTML5.

Time to again look into integrating WebKit into XBMC so at least add-ons could be coded in HTML5 and other web standards similar to Boxee?

Confused

Tizen is samsung driven, look to see a big fight between Tizen and Android in the future. Samsung just signed an IP agreement with Microsoft regarding Android, shows they don't have faith in Google/Motorola.

My guess is Samsung wants to own their world (sw/hw) and be like Apple/iOS. Toss Intel into the mix and Google better get their stuff together.

I do. I have Debian sid with hard float ABI running. KDE 4.5 also. I have been fighting because openmax is seldom tested and still have very annoying problem
(HAS_X11 -> HAVE_X11, HAS_OPENMAX not defined.

I'm currently able to start XBMC, but I will need to switch to external FFMPEG as I have pb with internal one (already compiled 0.8.7 anyway).

Last think I need to figure out what makes xbmc use openmax acceleration (thre is no selectable conif via gui like for vdpau/vaapi)
