BCM7525 SoC & VideoCore 5 GPU
#1
Folks,

I'm running a just-released android box based on the new Broadcom 7252 SoC, which integrates the new VideoCore V HW (V3D-530) GPU.

It had been working amazingly with Kodi, VLC, and all other apps, but a recent android or possibly kodi update seems to have 'broken' it.

I'm finding that even low bitrate h.264 is playing choppy and is unwatchable.

Has anyone else had this problem, or know what may have caused this gpu to no longer work properly?

I've run the gamut of settings changes, tweaks, etc.. and can't seem to make this thing work. Wondering if anyone else has played with any devices with this GPU, or knows of any tricks with it?

... no Debug log (wiki), no issue, is the mantra here.

Please post a debug log if you want to shed visibility on what's going on with your system in the hopes of getting some guidance.

There's no error message or anything, should i just enable logging and then post the content of that log after trying to watch a choppy movie? Appreciate the help - thanks!
