Quote:A small Mesa patch is needed as well, cause the older hardware doesn't support field based output of video frames. So unfortunately VDPAU/OpenGL interop won't work either.

Oh that's bad - xbmc won't work on that hardware then.

From http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid...pid1508789 i got the impression that xbmc could work without gl interop... It isn't true anymore? Thanks
No - that post is nearly one year old.

pixmap code has been removed, cause it was not standard conform and used a hack to get the surfaces back.
Edit: Here is the commit: https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/commit/2eb7...f93a8bb301

what skin are you using? try using confluence, if you aren't already.
Hi yes, im using confuence. Basicly im running exacly as the howto on page 1 is described.
ios is 7.1.2 and i noticed that in also unable to use airplay.. :-(

anyone any other hint?
Hi,

I came from the older how to (http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=116996) to this one.
Have been running with this setup quite while now but I see there are new versions of XBMC and Ubuntu.
Is it possible to upgrade to these new versions already? For example; I'm still not able to set a preferred subtitles provider for movies and tv shows.
Just to make sure I'm not understood, I'm running exactly as the first post of this topic describes atm.

Thanks!

EDIT: Fixed it. Update didn't go well so removing my user profile fixed it.
As of the 8/25 ppa:wsnipex/xbmc-fernetmenta-master build I have encountered a problem where my bluetooth remote keypresses aren't being recognized by xbmc while boblight-v4l is running.
I can do xinput test 9 with xbmc running and I see all the keypresses there, but the xbmc log shows no activity.
As soon as I pkill boblight-v4l the keypresses are recognized again.

I can use the android remote app with no problems.
I changed to ppa:team-xbmc/ppa build and do not have this problem.
Are you saying it worked before? What version worked and when did you first notice this issue?
Yes it was working up until i installed this latest build. I update fairly often, but I'm not sure exactly which build I ran prior to 8/25. Also I don't know the syntax to install an older build? If it would be helpful just let me know how to do that and I'll try it out this evening.
How did you install the ppa:team-xbmc/ppa build?

Cause the version in there is much lower than the version you have in the fernetmenta-master ppa

Provide:

dpkg -l |grep xbmc | pastebinit
apt-cache policy xbmc | pastebinit
please also post a debug log
Here's the dpkg and apt-cache output for the installed team-xbmc version that is working.
13.2~git20140817.2155-final-0trusty is what's installed

I'll make some proper debug logs tonight for both versions.
I was tailing the log last night and when I would press a key on the remote nothing happened in the log file as long as boblight-v4l was running.
you can skip the log for 13.x, this version is of no interest. Do you roughly remember the last working Helix version?
Likely it was the next most recent release. I usually update weekly. Definitely less than a month ago.

Here's the debug log.

Pressed the down key on my remote 50 times.
Connected the android app and pressed down once.
Killed boblight-v4l.
Pressed the up key on my remote once.
