RE: OpenELEC Testbuilds for RaspberryPi (Kodi 15.0) - da-anda - 2015-01-22

switching into 3D resolutions is broken with this new build - I suppose because ad1fe59c was dropped.

Yes. I was going to try implmenting it more like PR6232.
Hopefully back in a day or two.


RE: OpenELEC Testbuilds for RaspberryPi (Kodi 15.0) - da-anda - 2015-01-22

nice. While you're at it - can you debug why changing back from a 3D resolution into a regular resolution doesn't switch back GUI? I wrote PR6235 blindly, and with no build env for the PI it's hard to debug for the only HW I have that is capable of switching into a 3D resolution. To test, only switch the resolution in Settings -> System -> Video and not the stereomode. When switching to a 3D resolution GUI adjusts accordingly, but when you go back GUI will stay in 3D mode now Sad

Hello,

I've got a Raspi B+ and would like take it as a kitchen-MediaCenter (radio, music-streaming).
For this, I will get the sound over a pair of usb-speakers.

Actually I have to modify the /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf within:
Code:
options snd-usb-audio index=-2
options snd-usb-audio index=0 nrpacks=1
options snd-bcm2835 index=-2

My question is: Is it necessary to implemented a option in the "Rasp-Settings-Programm" to switch between a usb-sound and internal-sound, which do automatically the lines in the config-file.

@popcornmix
Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this, but I could not find a dedicated thread for your excellent newclock4 branch.
One of the latest commits break the build
Code:
AMLUtils.cpp: In function ‘bool aml_supports_stereo(int)’:
AMLUtils.cpp:114:86: error: ‘aml_get_sysfs_str’ was not declared in this scope
   if (aml_get_sysfs_str("/sys/class/amhdmitx/amhdmitx0/disp_cap_3d", disp_cap_3d, 255) == -1)
                                                                                      ^
/home/asavah/as-p/src-d/kodi/xbmc-newclock4/Makefile.include:93: recipe for target 'AMLUtils.o' failed
I guess it's a merge issue.

This commit https://github.com/popcornmix/xbmc/commit/22c8d0b4aaa975e0a0e76851e768db6330159f32 seems bogus, because it's a pretty old commit which makes use of aml_get_sysfs_str() authored on 7 Mar 2014 got merged *after* https://github.com/popcornmix/xbmc/commit/c5f2a0eef44673dcce6a2222a045408a02233988 authored on Jan 3, 2015 which completely removes aml_get_sysfs_str().

This looks very promising. I'm on the official Helix build and not using these dev builds, but does anyone have any anecdotes in terms of how much this might speed up startup? I have ~120 channels that come in on Helix, and it takes at least a good 30 seconds to load channels/epg info at startup. I wonder how much this PR will help improve that.


RE: OpenELEC Testbuilds for RaspberryPi (Kodi 15.0) - Milhouse - 2015-01-23

Feedback on this PVR PR would be much appreciated.

Other than a db schema update (v90 -> v91) you should be able to switch back and forth between official Helix and these test builds. Once you are finished testing, shut down Kodi, delete the v91 db and switch back to official Helix. Or stay on the test builds - additional testers are always welcome. Wink


RE: OpenELEC Testbuilds for RaspberryPi (Kodi 15.0) - MikeB2013 - 2015-01-23

Build #122 PVR PR feedback

On restart upgrading from Build #121 to #122 the TV Channels screen shows 0 (zero) for all backend channel numbers for the All channels group.
I have 2 channel groups FV and FS.

If I change the channel group to FV or FS the backend channel numbers are correctly shown.

However not all channel switches work, see log for channel 130.

Debug log is here http://xbmclogs.com/show.php?id=399953

Hey Milhouse,
just something I experienced with latest build (but I htink it isn't related to the build itself, just never tried playing it before). I can't play some mkv-files, in log mostly it says:
Code:
COMXCoreComponent::DecoderEventHandler OMX.broadcom.video_decode - OMX_ErrorInsufficientResources, insufficient resources
Here is the Debug log (shrinked it a bit), if additional Information is needed, just ask: http://pastebin.com/eBRLCkmv

Regards Shadowghost

Can you post mediainfo of the file?
Can you try with gpu_mem=256 in config.txt?

Mediainfo :Dropbox
With gpu_mem=256 it is working, but sometimes a bit laggy (could be network, can't test it now because family is using it now Tongue)

Not supported;
Code:

10 bit isn't supported by any hardware codec. While it plays it will have corruption.
Level 5 requires extra gpu memory. Level 4.1 is all we official support (and is the standard used by raw Blu-Rays, so there is no point going higher).

Oh okay, will remux them. Thanks for making clear.
