Intel VAAPI howto with Leia v18 nightly based on Ubuntu 18.04 server
Ah - OpenELEC, yes. Will update it later - I think that one is already fixed.

Uploaded a new build, but I doubt that fixes it. The locks need revisiting.

Is it an intel onboard-gfx Problem, or why does the refreshrate-change (60hz to 24hz, 24hz to 60Hz) last such a "long" time ?
I compared the N3150 onboard gfx with Kodi 17 EGL to my old Nvidia GT610 with Kodi16.
My Nvidia needs about 2-3secs to change, N3150 needs 3-4secs to change.
It seems to be not so much longer, but when watching a movie, or switching between several movies, these seconds are really annoying.
Is there a change to "optimize" those switching times, or do I simply have to deal with it ?

It does not need anywhere that long on my setup. Core i3 haswell and N3150. Kernel up2date?

with the N3150 testbuild i used a 4.3.x kernel from the ubuntu kernel ppa (ubuntu 15.10, installed as stated in your first post).
I must say, that my tv needs a bit longer to show image after changing refreshrate, but with N3150 it last noticeable longer than on my old system with that Nvidia GT610.
I remembered that I had done tests wiht Kodi/intel several months ago, and that refreshrate changes also got remembered for longer times with intel.
So there is no chance in optimizing those times, wether it's intel or nvidia ?

Try from the commandline, just run:

DISPLAY=:0 xrandr -r 24
and measure time

DISPLAY=:0 xrandr -r 60

and see again

I can try, but only with my nvidia setup. The N3150 Boards got sent back, because of several things:

- refreshrate switching times
- often video-artefacts directly after switching tv-channels ( no problem with my nvidia setup)
- Kodi 17 still alpha and although many people already using kodi17egl / openelec egl , for me it's not ready for my "primetime".

I think I will test the intel platform again, when Kodi 17 is getting final and Intel got it's new successor out (maybe with 4k/60Hz and HDMI2.0?)

Whatever you prefer. Those builds are not for primetime, but for testing - and we don't developer kernel drivers.

@fritsch: Would be great if you could update the vnsi addon within your build to the latest master version in order to get it working once again after the update of the pvr api to 5.1.0:

TVHeadEnd client addon isn't working either because of incompatible old API ... Sad ... Could you please also merge it into the OE build?

Thx in Advance ...
