Hello,
I hope this is the right thread even though it says not for asking compilation questions.
I have been maintaining kodi pkg at Manjaro ARM project with software decoding only. Recently tested LE which uses similar approach and followed all their sources to get hw decoding to work on my package too, but it still play using software decoding.
Device I use for testing:
Amlogic S905X/S912/S922x
Kodi GBM.
Things I have changed.
ffmpeg is build from the source which have v4l2_m2m for h264, h265. (Same source used by LE) Version 4.4
kodi is from upstream source, with gbm platform as current vpu support on kodi is only possible with gbm windowing system. Added the necessary flag to
I made sure that the kernel have the needed drivers for v4l2_mem2mem.
I have been trying this since few months but now I want to get this working as I am surprised on how well it works on LE, I discussed this with LE team too but I think it is not right to disturb LE team for Kodi pkg support.
Manjaro ARM kodi PKGBUILD can be found here
PKG build Log here
I have pulled some log kodi playback here
I hope someone with better knowledge can advice me of what I am doing wrong here.
Regards,
