No, I just enable DRI3 by copy-pasting the xorg.conf file from https://forum.libreelec.tv/thread-4323.html

Yeah - was just curious that it really helps ...

Will upload another build tonight with mesa 17 and DRI3 by default. Latest and greatest, bumped without testing it - like in the good old open ELEC times ...

Edit: will end up here (uploading - and as germany is a 3rd world land when it comes to broadband - it will need another hour): http://fritsch.fruehberger.net/openelec/hevc10/dri3/ (231 MB)

@xwire: i suspect some issue with your case or you mix-up some of the front panel cables. The switch is not supposed to do anything at all when not pressed.

@fritsch do you know if there is a difference using modsetting in xorg.conf instead of intel?

**fritsch** · 2017-02-25, 23:41

You mean concerning performance? Nope. Should be pretty straight forward these days, especially for kodi which is an GL application anyways.

Can you help me cherry picking the intel/hevc stuff into a "milhouse" build (https://github.com/LibreELEC/LibreELEC.tv) ? I seem to have missed some commits in my first attempt on my own.

No. I provide tech demos and not the best build on the planet - everything you need is on my github, branch: hevc10ffmpeg31

That already helps me a lot, I used the hevc10bit branch. Thanks!

Milhouse builds v18, That means the cherry-picks won't build .. as they are backported from kodi-agile (roling tree v18 based) to v17 ...

Great! It helps a lot, the animations are a lot smoother. It's hard to see in a 60 fps video, so I have recorded two short videos at 240 fps to illustrate the difference:

Your LE 8.0 build with no changes (select to download it if you want it in full resolution):

Can you see a difference with my dri3, mesa 17 build? (still uploading, 1min left)

Kenni · 2017-02-26, 00:32

Absolutely, your DRI3 / Mesa 17 build is visually as smooth as your Mesa 13 build with DRI3 enabled through xorg.conf Smile

So no custom xorg.conf needed in your Mesa 17 build.

Your Mesa 17 build for comparision:

Thanks..

I only had to correct one patch (kodi-999.999-hqscaling.patch) and one pick (10e9ceec24d2cbb8c8e18bf387d1380614a11816 - mesa: bump to 13.0.4) seems to be empty now.

Even though you don't want to support this, can you tell me if those commits are all I need?

PowerSupply / Memory Issue?

Tried 3 different PSUs that have been working flawlessly in other systems for many years as well.
Is memory incompatibility still an actual thing? Of all the various systems I've assembled the last 5 years, RAM incompatibility never occurred when using unlisted RAM. For this system I'm using Kingston HX321LS11IB2K2/8, which is part of the same line as the HX318LS11IBK2/16 that is on ASRock's J4205-ITX Memory Support List.

Sent from my HTC One_M8 (typie typie)

Case is a Streacom F7C Alpha. Board is properly mounted. No front I/O cables attached, apart from that of the power switch. Poles on the power switch side as well as on the motherboard are all properly line-ed up. I've unscrewed the power switch module from the Streacom enclosure, and connected it onto the motherboard of a different system. The power switch shows normal behaviour on that system (flawlessly boots up the system from cold at every actuation as it should), so the power switch module of the Streacom enclosure shouldn't be the culprit.

I've placed the J4205-ITX in a different case (Fractal Desgin Define R4). The funny thing is that the power switch of that case is that, despite it neither can actuate a proper POST from cold 100% all the time, it does at least manage to start the system up every now and then. Meaning that the power switch of the Define R5 has got fewer issues, which is weird, as the Define R5 and Streacom enclosures and their power switches perform exactly the same as each when having tried an other motherboard.
