RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - hanzoh - 2016-04-10

Hi fritsch,

I just noticed some minor glitches during playback and saw in the OSD that it drops a frame every 7.5 to 8 seconds.
The Debug overlay shows me that it switches from 23.4 to 24.4 fps every second.
My TV is set to 24 hz, the file has 23.976fps video.
DTS audio is sent via passthrough.

Retry tomorrow, please.

kodi just makes the most agressive changes to rendering and frames display since several years.

Edit: Sorry, though you run the ppa ... -> please use the Milhouse thread to keep talk about his builds centered in there. I read that thread, too and answer when I have to tell something.


RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - fritsch - 2016-04-11

If we have still users with the 25 fps + passthrough issues. Can you try to force the modesetting driver instead of the intel one?

via a simple /etc/X11/xorg.conf or /storage/.config/xorg.conf
Code:
Section "Device"
Identifier  "Device0"
Driver      "modesetting"
EndSection

When will ppa users get a new build?


RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - the-dreamer - 2016-04-12

@fritsch: could it also relevant to me? (skipping frames). i have also skipping frames visible (skip/drop is not counting anything) when i am playing back 25fps videos (inputstream). currently i am waiting for the branch of LE to continue my own build based on V17 as you are stopping building OE.(which is understandable)


RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - fritsch - 2016-04-12

Currently RenderManager is heavily reworked ... I hope we get perfect in the next days again. Just try with modesetting driver and see.

Edit: The relevant commit already made it to master ... so next Milhouse build should have all of it.

If you mean OE master, I think it's time I stopped building OE as I stopped tracking OE master a few weeks ago because of all the changes and it's not worth starting again now. My next Generic build will be based on LibreELEC.


RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - fritsch - 2016-04-12

master: kodi master


RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - Milhouse - 2016-04-12

Ah good, sorry confusing myself with the intel modesetting change that was discussed yesterday - suspect that will be LE only. If I do another OE build it will be using the regular intel driver.


RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - the-dreamer - 2016-04-13

modesetting driver is using by default double buffer or triple buffer? without the latest kodi changes my skippings are still there.


RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - fritsch - 2016-04-13

What about the 25 fps speed issue - any change?

RenderManager rework is still in progress. If you want _your_ personal skip / drop issue fixed, you need to supply Debug Log or add it to milhouse's trac report.


RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - phier - 2016-04-13

hi Fritsch,
do you mind to take a look on this one http://openelec.tv/forum/67-display/80987-kernel-bug-while-playing-blurays ... is this still open bug in stable oe release? Thanks


RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - fritsch - 2016-04-13

6.0.3 is stoneage ... kodi wise. Reproduce with something recent. V17 based.


RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - phier - 2016-04-13

what exactly do you mean by v17 based? what version of oe is it? 6.x?
thanks


RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - fritsch - 2016-04-13

Kodi 15 ... this thread here, that you highjacked, is about VideoPlayer enhancements which are not in OpenELEC 6.0.x ... as your GPU hangs and your dmesg clearly shows that - you don't have much chances. It's a kernel / mesa / drm bug and DVDPlayer (the internal player at this ancient time) provokes that bug.

So: Use latest Milhouse build that you can find and see if the issue is gone.
