Hi,
After upgrading to 14.04 and Kodi I think I did something wrong and now, after trying to get Kodi working I have laggy HW accelerated video playback (about 6 fps with less 20% CPU load, info screen says that frames are missed and dropped). Help me please to understand what's wrong because it's not only a HTPC but also a home server with lot's of stuff that is hard to reinstall from scratch.

You run oibaf ppa, which does not seem to work at all in your case. Please follow that howto from scratch.

??

It's already highlighted. and the first thing you see in linux form. The "old" one - has in red and fat letters, that it's not supported at all anymore, since ~ 2 years.

Kodi can be updated at Ubuntu 15.04? Who ever did?


RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - wsnipex - 2015-05-28

I did


RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - SerGol - 2015-05-29

Hi I have a strange issue with kodi unable to play files which do not have readmode explicit for kodi user.

Even if the file is world readable or grour readabe it wont playback the file. I have to explicit set user mode to readable.

Why is this? Why shold kodi be unable to play world/group readable files?

There is nothing in Smile just try yourself change the filemode to u=,g=rw,o=rw and kodi wont play the file. With a simple u+r the file now plays fine.


RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - fritsch - 2015-05-30

u= "nothing" <- are you kidding me? If u = kodi user, then that's perfectly clear ...
