I am going to join in the testing of the OpenELEC Jarvis builds.

I've currently got the official Isenguard build installed, can I use your build to simply update that or do I need to do a fresh install?

This is my system. Is this build likely to run well for 2160p content?

Motherboard
Gigabyte GA-H87N-Wifi

Processor
Intel Core i3-4130T 2x2.9Ghz

Graphic card
Intel HD Graphics 4400 (onboard)

RAM
4 Gb DDR3-1600 (1x4Gb)

If it's h264 ... yes ... if it's HEVC _not_ on your hardware ...

[Tyler Durden]

What do I need to change to make that work?

Would a change in processor work or would I need a graphics card perhaps?

[fritsch]

Nothing - your hardware has no HEVC decoder.

If you want hevc-10 bit: There is no intel hw solution for intel as of now.
If you want hevc-8bit: Braswell or Skylake is an option

[Tyler Durden]

Is there not a graphics card I can add to make it possible?

I do have an Amlogic M8, perhaps I would have more luck making that work...

[fritsch]

-> Ask in the hw forum ... not topic of this thread. In Linux world - simply no 10 bit hevc hw decoding exists for now.

[Tyler Durden]

Thanks.

-> hw forum.

You will have no luck at all with the AMLogic S802 in the M8. No HEVC decoding at all
Its the S812-H that does 8-bit 4K/2K/1080p HEVC, and this works well especially with the correctly modified AMLogic / Linux Kernel. The cheap 1080p HEVC capable S805 as well.

Not in Linux, but in Windows, yes. The GeForce GTX 960 and 950 have a HW HEVC decoder capable of 10-bit decoding (in Windows).

8 or 10 bit?

Kodi is still WIP for hevc 10 bit via dxva2: https://github.com/afedchin/xbmc/commits/dxva_hevc_10b

DSplayer with LAV will work for 10-bit HEVC DXVA2 as far as I understand it.

8 or 10 bit?

All the AMLogic S8XX SoC's are 8-bit, as already stated.
Its the S9XX series that are 10-bit which also bring HDMI 2.0 + HDCP 2.2

Sorry - missed the 8 bit ref. Apologies.
