RE: LibreELEC Testbuilds for x86_64 (Kodi 18.0) - SuperSheep81 - 2018-05-14 Hello Millhous, I hope this is the right thread to ask. In #0425 ffmpeg bumped to 4.0. Is there any chance that HEVC hardware acceleration will be supported in 10bit on Nvidia gpu's? Ffmpeg 4.0 does support that. I hope you (or any other developer) can answer my question. Thanks in advance!

RE: LibreELEC Testbuilds for x86_64 (Kodi 18.0) - tavoc - 2018-05-14 Hello, I am using 0513, but the problem exists with all LE9 Builds. The sound has sometimes hiccups, every few minutes the sound ist missing for a second. In Log you find this: CDVDClock::ErrorAdjust - CVideoPlayerAudio::OutputPacket - error The actual example is with amazon/Netflix Watching. My System is connected with HDMI to my Samstung TV and from there with SPDIF to a Stereo Amp. Using a fireTV Stick over the same HDMI there is no problem. My Settings are: Player Video sync refreshrate: always sync to TV: no System Screen Whiteliste 1920x1080 60 Hz, 50 HZ, 29,97Hz, 24Hz and 23,98Hz Kodi default refreshrate is 60HZ System Audio 2 channels Audio config: best match audio quality: high I cant upload my log with cat kodi.log | pastebinit Is this broken? I Have not found a website where I can upload big pastes, therefore its a text file on my amazon share: https://www.amazon.de/clouddrive/share/eYhbsY0gkDfp44MEGdNdSkATIvUFV8v2DOhxW8rfY25 thanks RE: LibreELEC Testbuilds for x86_64 (Kodi 18.0) - SuperSheep81 - 2018-05-14 (2018-05-14, 20:53)fritsch Wrote:VDPAU is abandonned.

It works perfectly with my 1080p rips at both 24p and 60p passing DTS-HD Master and TrueHD/ATMOS.(2018-05-08, 00:22)billbillw Wrote: I posted in the hardware forum, but still haven't gotten an answer.So, I was able to successfully update the HDMI firmware to version 1.66. However, I am still unable to passthrough DTS-HD Master and TrueHD using LibreELEC, Milhouse 0505. So, the Kaby Lake NUC is capable of doing it. Is this still a kernel limitation with LibreELEC? I haven't really gotten any answers. Just some people saying 'yeah, I had that problem too'. As mentioned before, I'd really prefer to use LibreELEC. The Windows version just seems clunky and things like updates add headaches.

I'll watch my 4k BR-discs on the blue ray player in the meanwhile. Is there any way I can request this as a new feature in a future version op libreelec?

I only think I'm not the only one who have a Nvidia GPU who has this problem.You are welcome - also no offense intended. Btw. if someone reads this: Why does the card work on windows? The answer is simple: Nvidia implemented DXVA, the standard Windows hardware acceleration and rendering framework. Under the hood this uses most likely cuvid / nvidia sdk whatever. Kodi on windows supports exactly one decoding standard, which is DXVA. On Linux, it's different: There is OMX, OMX(PI), AMCodec, VAAPI, VDPAU, XVBA, Rockchibberish, etc. in recent years AMD implement first VDPAU to be compatible with the masses. Intel ever went with VAAPI. Then Nvidia dropped support for VDPAU, AMD continued supporting it and even implemented HEVC-10 bit in MESA, theoretically usable in VDPAU. but only theoretical as of limitations of nvidia's implementation. As VDPAU was deadend some people out of AMD environment worked with intel on VAAPI 2.0 with the result that with upcoming kodi v18 - AMD gpus and intel gpus will use VAAPI including support for VP9 Profile2 and HEVC-10 bit ... now nvidia came up and could have done it right and provide native VAAPI support, but no - yet another nvidia specific CUDA based decoding framework without even proper possibilities to "zero copy share" decoded surfaces with render pipeline. That's the very sad story with them. Yes, great GPUs ... but only proprietary support. No native wayland support ... *to be continued*.

RE: LibreELEC Testbuilds for x86_64 (Kodi 18.0) - rudrood - 2018-05-15 Just found that video whitelist doesn't work correct with Nvidia legacy drivers (it doesn't switch to several fps-es). The same config works oke with the standard drivers on the system. I use them on one system to make the sleep mode not to crash the system. Should I live with it cause it's "to old" (I can understand) or do you devs like some logs from the system? Thanks.

The same config works oke with the standard drivers on the system. #0515 is working for me with my ION2 and legacy driver. Do you have "Adjust display to refresh rate" enabled (ie. "Always", possibly also "Start/Stop"), as this option is still required for the time being along with your Whitelist resolutions. Can you provide a debug log which shows the failure of the whitelist to select a refresh rate?
