RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - fritsch - 2014-04-08
Nope, sadly not yet. But upgrade.
RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - Ectholian - 2014-04-09
Still no luck with booting with custom EDID and both receiver and television turned off.
dmesg: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7225004/
mesa: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7225008/
xorg: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7225010/
xrandr and vdpau can't open display since Xorg exited with error 1. Also XBMC won't boot at this point.
RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - fritsch - 2014-04-09
Yeah, you did it wrong - better said: you did nothing :-)
Here, add this additional video stancer: video=HDMI-A-1:e
Edit: If dmesg runs over, think about that: options drm_kms_helper poll=0 in /etc/modprobe.d/something.conf
RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - Ectholian - 2014-04-09
You've seen that very quick... so i must have made a stupid mistake.... can you enlight me? I though i followed everything very carefull
RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - fritsch - 2014-04-09
See above post.
RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - Ectholian - 2014-04-09
Works like a charm. I thought i need to put in the whole video= line with all parameters but sometimes stuff can be so simple
Last think i need to look yet in is the resolution in the console. Because the display is a little bit out of vision (the L from Login is not visible for example). But not an issue for here.
Thanks very much again.

Use your TV's remote and disable underscan. No need to do anything in xbmc / terminal calibration. The method is most of the time called "Just Scan" or "Fixed".

RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - Ectholian - 2014-04-09
Yeah, i was looking into that (because you've said it earlier to me), but wasn't able to find the setting yet.
Looks like Panasonic hides it a little bit, I found some links to i'll check when i'm back home.
Btw great work on this release.

Fix it in the EDID :-) if you are keen to do so.
RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - Ectholian - 2014-04-09
I already modified the EDID to have exact the same physical dimensions as the television screen. And it is using that dimensiosn also, according to the logs and xrandr. But still the boundaries are a little off screen.
But first gonna try t his setting on the tv
RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - Ectholian - 2014-04-09
Hm i suppose the custom EDID is not fully functional
DISPLAY=:0 xrandr
HDMI-0 connected 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 819mm x 460mm
xdpyinfo -display :0 | grep -B2 reso
dimensions: 1920x1080 pixels (508x285 millimeters)
resolution: 96x96 dots per inch
Note the difference in physical size.
RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - fritsch - 2014-04-09
Yeah - but hey, that's really offtopic for this howto. I think you can solve the last steps alone. Btw. http://www.x.org/archive/X11R6.8.1/doc/Xserver.1.html - check the -dpi switch and fiddle that into the upstart script.
RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - abudabi - 2014-04-09
This guide used to only be for Saucy. For that reason I installed XBMCbuntu 13 that wsnipex created. Seeing as this guide now has instructions for trusty, is there any reason for me to scrap my current xbmcbuntu install and replace it with this one? XBMCbuntu serves my needs (primary display xbmc with vnc server on display :1 where I can remotely run apps and do gui admin stuff) but I'm not sure if I'm missing out on something that is maybe optimized in this build?
RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - fritsch - 2014-04-09
No need to remove xbmcbuntu v13. If you need HEVC support and newer ffmpeg, just add the fernetmenta ppa from the first post and fine.
RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - abudabi - 2014-04-09
Hmm...
apt-cache policy ffmpeg
ffmpeg:
Installed: (none)
Candidate: (none)
Version table:
dpkg also lists nothing
Would ffmpeg add anything to my XBMC experience?
