First video plays perfect "O" shows dc
tf-h264
Then stop and start same or other video and dc:ff-h264 is used (not watchable).
2nd , 3rd etc..... dc:ff-h264.
All current builds, inc SPMC Gotham Oman Kodi etc.....
all do the same.
Is there anyway around this ?
debug logs (wiki) needed when this happens. Be as detailed as possible with the steps you take to reproduce the issue.
For some reason, now with Libstagefright and Medicodec enabled in Kodi RC1 , dc:ff-h264 used all the time.
A little background, box is an S85 S805 chipset.
For IPTV to work properly I have to disable Amcodec.
Logfile.

Steps.
1. Open video from usb, using dc:ff-h264.
2. Opened same video/or another video dc:ff-h264.
3. All videos will use dc:ff-h264.
Well, there doesn't seem to be anything obviously wrong in the logs, which sadly means I won't be of much use. We'll need an actual dev to look at this.
Seems to be an Amlogic S805 box.
Ok Ned, thanks for the input.
I'm hoping Koying will fix the aml live preview problem in time for 14.0-final. It's not just Android, it's there in OpenELEC too on my box. For the time being I switch off option to start live tv playback minimised and I map back key to "stop" in full screen live tv. That way I never see the problem!
Looks like amlcodec support is not detected.
I bet the " /sys/class/audiodsp/digital_raw" file is not present on your system, right?
Confirm " /sys/class/audiodsp/digital_raw" is present, has a value "0"
Using SPMC and XBMC, there are no issues selecting/using Mediacodec, but mediacodec is unstable on this box after 30 mins video playing.

SPMC and XBMC, Libstagefright is stable but used only for first video.
Kodi, see post #4.

Hardly makes sense to me. The log state "aml_present, rtn(0)", which means it doesn't find "/sys/class/audiodsp/digital_raw" and thus doesn't enable the amlogic specific codec.
[EDIT] My bad. "aml_present, rtn(0)" actually means amlogic was found.
I still don't get why stagefright/Mediacodec is used rather than amlcodec.
Did you disable it? If so, why?

There has been talk of a "work around" for android S802 and S805 boxes that are working on a 720p screen but show video at 1080p so you miss a large section of the video playing. By disabling amlcodec, you get the correct size video output.

Main reason, for proper viewing of IPTV on 720p TV.
Koying, nice work, it works.
Many many thanks.
