wickwire: that's right, I just looked it up.
<swabbles>
And it seems vdpau is tied to X11.
<swabbles>
(this is even the case for the nvidia implementation)
<wickwire>
hmm
<swabbles>
So people suggest to juse use X11 without WM.
<wickwire>
ok
<wickwire>
my idea was, if at all possible
<wickwire>
to try and tie libvdpau to Qt5
<wickwire>
replace the qtmultimedia backend
<wickwire>
and have the graphics from Qt work with the video
<wickwire>
currently I'm ok with Qt5 acceleration on both FB and X11
<wickwire>
but I'd prefer to use FB
<wickwire>
now I was thinking of a way to somehow import the video library
<swabbles>
You can probably integrate the vdpau stuff inside a Qt widget (I am sure people have done this before, although I am not sure if that is what you are after).
<swabbles>
But keep in mind that the vdpau driver is still experimental, as sunxi-kms is being developed.
<toketin>
so the CB can handle 1080p video well?

I've successfully played both Sintel 1080p and Big Buck Bunny 1080p using sunxi-vdpau and mplayer.

swabbles: mali 400?
<wickwire>
I have the notion I have too, but with X11
<swabbles>
And with an SSD, you can also properly seek (it will play from there instanteously).
<toketin>
i've the Cubieboard 1
<swabbles>
toketin: the mali 400 is only for 3D accel.
<swabbles>
It is unrelated to video encoding/decoding.

wickwire: it's kind of sad that vdpau depends on X11, but yes.
<toketin>
swabbles: because i've tried xbmc under my CB1, with Archlinux Arm and Cubian (debian based) but it doesn't work fine, no 720p videos neither audio :/
<swabbles>
toketin: both the A10 and the A20 have a VPU that can easily decode H.264.
<rellla>
you should be able to play the videos mentioned in the charts. first try these. and for the audio. current repo won't work with newer kernels. it needs little patching.
<wickwire>
swabbles: the X11 limitation you're describing, how could I work on getting it for framebuffer? Who is working on cedrus at the moment?
<wickwire>
considering it is possible

wickwire: I'd check the wiki for that or ask about it in the linux-sunxi channel.
<wickwire>
swabbles: thanks
<swabbles>
The thing is that the X11 limitation is most-likely to be a limiation due to VDPAU, not sunxi though.
<toketin>
rellla: it doesn't work with 720p videos :/ have you tried on CB1?
<rellla>
swabbles: thats it!
<rellla>
toketin: yes.
<toketin>
maybe with a older package
<rellla>
toketin: which video won't work exactly? provide info and fill out the chart.
<rellla>
toketin: last time i tried, was long time ago. but with latest xbmca10
<toketin>
rellla: how can i find the video's info?
<rellla>
use mediainfo. i recommend you to first read the wiki, then go on. it's mentioned on the site i posted above.
<rellla>
toketin: and keep the "attention note" in mind :p

rellla: so should i modify this file: xbmc/cores/AudioEngine/Sinks/AESinkALSA.cpp with the changes reported in that link?
<rellla>
toketin: s/sun4i/sunxi, because the device name changed. otherwise there will be no audio
<rellla>
yes
<rellla>
you can also use stage/Frodo of this repo, it's forked anyway

toketin: you can also use stage/Frodo. as i said before, test the videos listed in the chart, then report. the provide mediainfo of a 720p file, that doesn't work.
<rellla>

<rellla>
sorry infobot ;)
<toketin>
rellla: in fast i've used stage/Frodo, with this command: git checkout stage/Frodo_fixblue2
<rellla>
toketin: hm. no clue so far. the whole xbmc+binary blob thing has many issues...
<rellla>
you should test your files with vlc, and try the libve way, to see if it's a blob issue or maybe a faulty xbmc implementation.
<toketin>
rellla: yes i know, under this point of view the Rasp Pi support is better
<rellla>
toketin: there is NO sunxi xbmc support.
<toketin>
rellla: right

i'm planning to buy a Chromecast in order to have Samba streaming with my TV

hi, a friend of mine is trying to compile a driver on his cubietruck (running linaro/lubuntu) and is missing the kernel .config. i've guided him through searching the installed packages for '^linux-' and it looks like his kernel wasn't installed from a package.
<n-st>
i assume the easiest way to get the appropriate .config for his system would be to install some version of linux-headers, but i'm not sure which one he'll need for a cubietruck...
