I have seen this comment several times that AMD needs to listen to the community to fix there products but i'm wondering if they are even aware of the situation?

@schumi2004:
Yes - they are. Highly official and directly. They know what is not working since XVBA was started. DTS-HD is just another part of the "htpc unattractive experience" with AMD (on !windows) products.

Just to be clear: my complaint was directed to AMD, not you, whose work is amazing.
Going back, I would buy an Intel+NVidia solution...

@Artax:
No problem at all. I don't take AMD`s problem seriously :-)

Me neither Wink

Btw, didn't found time yet to check processes like you suggested/asked before. Will do this weekend.

Can anyone explain how to create xvba patch to use against upstream master (OpenELEC) ?

I created a diff from FernetMenta's branch against upstream master but the file is to big in size and seems to take more then XVBA only.

**wsnipex** · 2013-02-06, 15:29

OpenElec has Xvba already

**fritsch** · 2013-02-06, 18:55

And latest fernetmenta is xbmc master + all what you need :-) just compare the commits.

I'm aware OE has XVBA already but when you grab the latest XBMC code and compile OE it failes on the current XVBA patch, to many mismatches.

I did but it gave me a file over ~1.1Mb and the original in OE now is around 862Kb, also there are to much changes in my diff patch then current patch.
I noticed Fernet not only changed xvba but also for example pvr stuff, and i can't only grab the commits that are for XVBA.

I'll check again later to see what changed and made the patch that big.

The bad thing: movies/videos can't be played. when selecting a movie, the screen goes black and shows only the OSD. After a few seconds the whole system freezes. how can i uninstall the hardware acceleration?

I have exactly the same problem. I just disabled xvba, which doesn't make any sense when using this version. Did you find any solution?

Look on OpenELEC github. in the packages/mediacenter/xbmc/patches.x86 directory. Here you find what you want.

Hello

I have one htpc with i3 cpu, 2 gb ram, ati 6450 vga. I use wsnipex test iso v6. I upgraded it from wsnipex repo, and I use 12.10 catalyt. But I have one problem: If I watch films, xbmc freeze sometimes. The computer dont, only movie playing. I can login with ssh, or telnet, I can restart computer. But screen and sound freeze. I try reinstall it, but nothing changes... I ran some testprogram, and hardware seems good.
What can I doing?

Hi!

I´m using your version for over a year, everything works great! thnx alot!

the last days, i played around with mythtv and the pvr-plugin! after a few problems with mythtv itself i wanted to start from scratch and removed mythtv with

Code:
remove myth*

to get all mythtv packages!
with the new install everything was ok, i can watch tv with mythtv-frontend. but in xbmc the mythtv-addon is gone! it is no longer under the deactivated addon section! did i removed it accidentally by removing mythtv with the myth* command?

i can search after the addon and it will be found, but nothing happens by hitting the install button!
how can i bring it back Huh

**wsnipex** · 2013-02-08, 10:51

sudo apt-get install xbmc-pvr-mythtv-cmyth

Hi Guys,

I have just installed xbmc-xvba and like it alot .. 720p playes fine, very smooth, no tearing. The only issue I have is play does not start reliably,
I hit the play button, and the audio starts, but no video .. stays on the menu screen. If I hit play one or two more times, it will start and play great ...

Anyone have idea's as to the cause of this?

Thanks,
Bernie
