Robotica Wrote:Since team-xbmc PPA are not compiled with VAAPI enabled (and the needed dependencies are missing in most Linux distro's), we need a thread for Zacate based hardware to get XBMC running. A user did all this work and posted a precompiled version overhere (custom xbmc-live ubuntu 10.10 x64 build). There also is a precompiled VAAPI XBMC (including PVR). Since openelec.tv and XBMC(Freak)Live aren't supporting this hardware either, the only other way to get this hardware running with XBMC, is to compile xbmc yourself. (With Windows this platform works like a charm already and it beats ATOM/ION on price, performance and features)
I'm using nemek's custom build xbmc-live ubuntu 10.10 x64, and everything works fine, except
this issue, which is very similar to what the
mentioned patch fixes, except that this happens only in 24p mode, when vsync is enabled, and it happens immediately and all the time during playback. Nemek claims that he has applied this patch to his custom build, which I suppose it true, because otherwise playback is perfect in any other modes than 24P/vsync enabled.
Can you guys check if you experience the same issue in 24p mode, or your installation plays fine? Thanks.
Btw, if i wanted to compile a newer version, how can i do that on this environment without breaking the current installation? I mean, can i compile, test, and update only if the compiled version works better?
(Since vaapi is already working, I guess would only need to check out and build the source with vaapi enabled - unless I want to try out a newer ati driver of course.)
Which git source do you suggest for me to compile on this environment? (with url please). I admit, i'm a little lost in these tons of different versions, ppa-s, etc.
