RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - fritsch - 2014-05-07 You are welcome :-) AW: RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - Jan0sh - 2014-05-07 (2014-05-07, 12:36)Spekkie Wrote: Anyone has any bright ideas? Sounnds like some leftovers from xbmc xvba installation. My tipp would be (as i did move from xvba 12.04 to saucy oss) carfully read the deprecated xvba howto and undo everything done there and not donne in this howto. Purge everypackage the xvbahowto wants to install but the oss howto does not want. There were some differentstartup scripts scattered around thatthread, if I rember correct. Some with .xinit or .profile in your home. Souds like one of those old startup scripts is causing the errors. If you ar not willing to do a fresh install make sure to do a full backup of your home and system partitions.

Thanks for the tip, yet it was indeed the xserver backing store fritsch mentioned that was causing the problem, and he was right as well about the lightdm.conf which is starting xbmc for me. So there's no xvba stuff causing any problems, at least not that I'm aware of since I don't have any problems anymore... Though the transition from ubuntu 12.10 xvba to 13.10 OSS wasn't easy, I managed to get it all working properly back in the day. RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - fritsch - 2014-05-08 The fixes in my 3.14.2 image are now in upstream, since today: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/daily/current/ RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - funkhouser - 2014-05-08 (2013-10-03, 10:52)fritsch Wrote: What you get Curious, what does the "110%" speed refer to? RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - fritsch - 2014-05-08 Nice, you are the first that asks. It's concerning h264 decoding performance. On XVBA with an E350 1080p50 was not doable. With VDPAU it works. Though I see some slowness with the trusty 10.1 packages (not! decoderwise). Let's see if upcoming 10.1.2 or 10.2-rc1 will improve that again. That's only realizable when doing temporal deinterlacing and when doing lanczos3 upscaling. RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - htpcero - 2014-05-08 @ Fritsch - thanks a million for your efforts to have AMD acceleration fully supported in XBMC over the last several years. I've been building and using your code on an E350 APU for a very long time now, from VAAPI wrappers to XVBA and now to VDPAU. It's been a lot of fun. Question for All - RE high-end audio & Radeon OSS: in the XVBA days, high def audio over HDMI (on E350) had a limitation; as I recall I could do up to 192/24 but only on two channels. To do multichannel (e.g. 5.1 96/24) the only way as SPIDF, so I had to revert to it because I have many HD recordings in 96/24 multichannel FLAC. I was wondering if with Radeon OSS that limitation has been lifted, or still remains. (In my setup I removed pulseaudio to ensure bit-perfect audio transfer in all cases) RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - wsnipex - 2014-05-08 HD-audio is working with radeon, but only on plain alsa. RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - User 180186 - 2014-05-09 I have a small suggestion for the guide. It's a line that's in xbmcbuntu advancedsettings.xml that is not in your advancedsettings. My videos (served by another computer) suddenly stopped playing at a random moment. After doing some research it appeared very small samba timeouts. Video caching did not solve this, but setting the samba timeout did. I think a lot of people using NAS-es can benefit from this. Code: <samba> And maybe you can consider adding useddsfanart from the default installation as well. Code: <useddsfanart>true</useddsfanart> RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - fritsch - 2014-05-09 Can do that, though the latter might not matter on today's hardware. RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - miraclemaker - 2014-05-09 (2014-05-05, 13:15)fritsch Wrote: You did not. You are running a full blown Ubuntu with pulseaudio installed. Apologies fritsch I upgraded from 12.04 server via dist-upgrade. I had previously followed the old guide. Disabling the backing store as per the instructions you provided for Spekkie helped, but I'm still getting artifacts during playback. Is there anything I can do to improve matters or is my best bet a clean install? Many thanks for all your hard work, it's really appreciated. RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - fritsch - 2014-05-09 Debug Log please (everything the first page states). Artifacts are not a matter of backing store, but problems with decoding. RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - kwiky - 2014-05-09 Hi everyone ! Hi fritsh ! I think vdpau is not correctly loaded Code: $ DISPLAY=:0 vdpauinfo Is this the correct lib ? If not, how can i replace this one by the mesa one ? Code: :/usr/lib/vdpau$ ll I deal with problems for days... Thanks a lot !
