Hi dylan_zd,
may i ask some questions about the H3 release?

1) Which kernel source do you use for your release?
2) Where does libvdecoder.so come from? Source? GPL compliant?
3) What is libvrender.so used for? Is this also open source, and if so, available somewhere?

Thanks
rellla

Hi rellla,

1.
As i wrote in README.md on github. The branch implement for AllWinner H3 platform.
So first of all, you need H3 sdk, which should contain kernel provided by AllWinner.

2. libvrender.so is video render api for H3 platform. we created it base on H3 video render api implement.
You should known how it work if you get H3 sdk.

3. libvrender is not open source yet.

I meant libvdecoder.so
Did you mistype and mean Allwinner's media codec implementation?

Ok. The name smells like libv(ideo)render.. But what is it for? Video decoder? 3D Mali? Allwinner display?

RE: Zidoo X1 (allwinner H3) Kodi source code release on github - mirror88 - 2015-09-18

In the allwinner sdk /system/lib/, you will find the libvdecoder.so,we didn't change it.

The libvrender is the allwinner display lib for the hw display.

This is nice, why not kodi 15.1?
And plz do the same as the source of x6... like this is hard to see the changes :/

Hi rellla:

We don't modify libvdecoder.so. you can use the one built in H3 sdk.
And it is api for AllWinner hardware video decoder, it also has a name Cedarx.
For more information, please refer to http://linux-sunxi.org/CedarX

very nice commit history :S

It would probably be too much to ask to properly rebase your changes on top of vanilla kodi helix instead of "the initialize version"
