NOTICE:

Nvidia Legacy GPU owners: Nvidia have announced they are ending support for the xf86-video-nvidia-legacy video driver, and there will be no further updates after 340.108.

It is likely the legacy driver will be broken with kernel 5.6, and will remain broken unless the fixes are trivial.

Now might be a good time to upgrade your Nvidia GPUs, however avoid purchasing another Nvidia GPU as the Kodi plan is to drop Nvidia support entirely in either Kodi 19 or Kodi 20 due to lack of VAAPI support.

The Nouveau driver is being investigated and may bring salvation (it supports legacy hardware, and also supports VAAPI) but that is by no means certain at this time, and it also has major Nvidia-created problems in terms of supporting modern Nvidia GPUs.

My advice for the longer-term would be to replace Nvidia-based hardware with an Intel/AMD GPU replacement, or switch to an ARM-based SBC (save power, better performance than a 10+ year old Nvidia GPU!)

Unfortunately this isn't the tvheadend test thread and I don't have the bandwidth to deal with bleeding-edge tvheadend issues - I only provide a compatible and stable tvheadend-4.2 as a convenience since many use this add-on (and therefore without it there'd be fewer Kodi 19 testers - and testing Kodi 19 is the purpose of this thread).

Will we sometimes see Intel GPU Firmware too ?

I checked some moons ago with one of your your builds (#0125 or later) on an Intel_NUC_8i3BEH (IRIS).

I'm not 100 % sure, but I mean to remember that there wasn't Intel GPU FW in that build or am I wrong ?

I checked some moons ago with one of your your builds (#0125 or later) on an Intel_NUC_8i3BEH (IRIS).

I'm not 100 % sure, but I mean to remember that there wasn't Intel GPU FW in that build or am I wrong ?

We haven't included Intel GPU firmware in the past as its use is not recommended - in fact, loading the Intel GPU firmware is disabled by default in the kernel (disabled by Intel) and needs to be enabled manually with a kernel command line option. Since firmware loading is not enabled by default (or recommended) it's just a waste of space - 8MB to be precise.

There was a brief time when it was enabled automatically but this change was swiftly reverted due to bugs. It's still disabled by default to this day.

If you want to test it yourself you can download the firmware files to /storage/.config/firmware/i915. Enable GPU firmware loading by appending i915.enable_guc=2 to /flash/syslinux.cfg and then you should see the following extra entries in dmesg (tested on a Skylake system):
text:


[    0.052147] Setting dangerous option i915.enable_guc - tainting kernel

...

[    1.105283] i915 0000:00:02.0: GuC firmware i915/skl_guc_33.0.0.bin version 33.0 submission:disabled

[    1.105286] i915 0000:00:02.0: HuC firmware i915/skl_huc_2.0.0.bin version 2.0 authenticated:yes

More details here.

If/when Intel GPU firmware support is enabled by default then we will add the firmware to the image.
