XBMC & Wayland, the new compositor - air.zrakovic - 2012-01-05 look what I found on their mailing list massage, they have you (xbmc) in mind Quote:....... - Robotica - 2012-01-05 wayland can be future replacement for X. Maybe this topic should be in Linux-specific? RE: XBMC & Wayland, the new compositor - zAo_OSX - 2012-06-06 I'm so looking forward to a XBMC Wayland build! Especially on ARM.

On ARM, DirectFB support (https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/454) can be a much better improvement since it aims to run without a windowmanager. For x86 Wayland seems to be the way forward but it will take lots of time before XBMC will make use of it. Probably, first the major distro's should start using it....

Especially on ARM. RE: XBMC & Wayland, the new compositor - mikejuni - 2012-06-19 Wayland support requires removing all X dependencies. I believe XBMC UI is OpenGL based and that means moving XBMC to OpenGL ES (which does not have X dependency) and probably the video acceleration layer needs to make use of non-X methods (like vaapi on KMS / wayland). People using Nvidia will be out of luck as Nvidia VDPAU depends on X. I have high hopes for Wayland + Ubuntu TV! RE: XBMC & Wayland, the new compositor - Ned Scott - 2012-06-19 XBMC's iOS port already uses OpenGL ES. RE: XBMC & Wayland, the new compositor - MindTooth - 2012-10-26 Wayland 1.0 is released. 1.0 marks a stable API. http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/wayland-devel/2012-October/005967.html RE: XBMC & Wayland, the new compositor - spiff - 2012-10-26 butchered, totally meaningless half-arsed X11 implementation? WOHO! must jump on it right away... wait. RE: XBMC & Wayland, the new compositor - zAo_OSX - 2012-10-28 Who needs the aged X11? RE: XBMC & Wayland, the new compositor - erhnam - 2012-10-28 There aren't any hw accelerated drivers for wayland yet...

Also, you can run X in Wayland. RE: XBMC & Wayland, the new compositor - un1versal - 2012-10-29 (2012-10-26, 10:08)spiff Wrote: butchered, totally meaningless half-arsed X11 implementation?
