New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - porkchop999 - 2016-01-08 Anyone been playing with the new builds? RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - Roby77 - 2016-01-08 i'm abroad so i can't test...but i'm too curious..did anyone noticed that V17 version (with new Fernetmenta videoplayer) now is called Oe6 based (old but safely) any surprise near angle ?

Has nothing to do with the Kodi version on which they are based (v16/v17) RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - meowmoo - 2016-01-08 Quote:http://fritsch.fruehberger.net/openelec/v17_videoplayer_testing/Readme.txt Fritsch ghost is taking to us RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - M4tt0 - 2016-01-08 Yes, and I'm wondering what fritsch's ghost is going to do with that lonely jarvis-egl branch now...

Nothing - it is just kept, in case I might have broken something while rebasing, to git diff my stuff between the branches. This build was never based on Jarvis anyways as we directly jumped onto master after 15.2 with backports was released. It's called v17 Krypton based at least since master was branched off. RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - M4tt0 - 2016-01-08 Thanks for your response! OK, Isengard-EGL --> Krypton it is, then. NOOOOOO going back to the pre-EGL world... RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - Roby77 - 2016-01-08 thank you again for your work fritsch! RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - mattlach - 2016-01-11 I apologize in advance if this is too off topic, but is anyone aware of a good guide similar to this one for setting up a dedicated window manager free ubuntu kodi install, but using Nvidia closed source drivers and VDPAU, instead of Intel? I think I can mostly get there from what I have learned from this thread, but skipping the fermenteta ppa, and just manually installing nvidia-352, libvdpau1 and vdpau-va-driver so I get VDPAU. As far as the tweaks and recommended settings go, this thread and fritsch's brilliant work have been invaluable. So has anyone done this type of writeup? RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - fritsch - 2016-01-11 You will not need the vdpau-va-driver driver - as this is only a vdpau to vaapi wrapper driver. You also won't need the xrandr setting for running in full range, for nvidia full range is forced via xorg.conf. Also you can skip vainfo and the vaapi driver / ppa installation. The rest should work as is. RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - sw4y - 2016-01-11 This is really bad news... Thanks for your work on the whole project fritsch! Sry for getting off-topic - but what hardware would you guys recommend when switching from amd to intel?

The Beebox is a good candidate for fritsch's releases.

Depends what you want to achieve. If 4k@60 8-bit on 1080 display is fine for your, then Braswell or Skylake. If you need 10-bit and maybe 4k support without downscaling to 1080, then should wait for Broxton. However, the information we have atm is that Broxton will support full hw 10-bit, but not sure about the hdmi version (will it be 4k or scaled down).

Depends what is important to you : De-interlacing? HEVC 8-bit? HEVC 10-bit? No HEVC? UHD? HDMI 2.0? Cost? Power consumption / noise? Power for other stuff (does it need to run a TV Backend, transcode between formats, act as a server for other devices etc.) or is it just pure Kodi? Suspect this is probably a bit off-topic for this thread to be honest...
