00:11 <anarsoul|2> 3:20 without the cache

00:39 <adema> anarsoul, so i've tried mesa 21.0.0 and the coloring issue still happens on my potato board

00:42 <adema> i.e.: you told me to try latest master from git but that was easier for me to create packages from 21.0.0 for my distrib

00:42 <adema> and 21.0.0 is fairly recent right?

02:09 <anarsoul> nope

02:09 <anarsoul> please try git master

02:10 <anarsoul> it was branched quite a while ago and there were some fixes after that

09:45 <adema> ok

10:40 <enunes> adema: what coloring issue?

11:28 <adema> So I am using linux5.11.6 with lima 21.0.0 without specific Xorg configuration; Just starting xfce4 and kodi. On my external TV set, the blue is somehow green, and green is very flashy. Unfortunately, when I do take a screenshot, the colors are fine. I have shared some manually taken pictures with my phone previously. I will try to find them back

11:28 <adema> enunes, what I really see on my TV monitor: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1lAAB5gjdipat3tWjn9y2ctKdvshumgJE/view?usp=sharing

11:29 <adema> picture quality is rather bad, I'll give you that and it reality the colors seems weirder than what it looks on the photo.

11:29 <adema> I'll try to find a high end camera to provide better pictures if that is useful

11:30 <enunes> adema: there were some related changes in https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/merge_requests/8549 which are not in 21.0.0 , but I'm not sure they would affect the level of color detail you mean

11:31 <adema> I will try latest master later today

11:33 <enunes> honestly I cant see a problem in your photo, but maybe its just the photo

11:34 <adema> The flashy green hat is not suppose to be flashy

11:34 <adema> just green

11:35 <enunes> did you try libreelec for that application? I think they are using lima in a lot of targets and usually they report issues with kodi, there haven't been any recently

11:35 <adema> and the bottom right corner of the background should be dark blue

11:35 <adema> enunes, https://drive.google.com/file/d/1CA9r9d1YXlBhDOWzbtM9w_XwzoKK6QVH/view

11:35 <adema> this is a screenshot

11:35 <adema> with the correct colors

11:38 <enunes> I wonder if its a display thing rather than lima (lima doesn't have anything to do with display) since the screenshot is ok

11:38 <adema> so a htmi driver issue or something?

11:40 <adema> I use this TV monitor with another computer everything day and the colors are correct

11:40 <enunes> yeah maybe its worth trying master first or try using kodi through libreelec to get some more data

11:41 <enunes> hdmi is nothing to do with lima in these boards

11:41 <adema> Sure ok

11:41 <enunes> it could be some more issues with sampling textures in lima but then I think (1) the glitches would be far worse than a couple of "wrong" colors and (2) I think it would show up in the screenshot too

11:41 <adema> To be honest I am just an end user, I don't really know where the problem is coming from. Just asking randomly for help^^

11:50 <enunes> adema: maybe the images from here https://test.libreelec.tv/

11:50 <adema> Thanks i'll try that

11:51 <adema> ultimately I want to use the distribution of my choice but in the mean time if that helps figure out what is going on, i'll surely test librelec!

11:55 <enunes> to be fair I don't particularly want to endorse it but since they seem to be keeping track of the lima and kodi setup with up to date mesa, if it works there then I would suggest your issue is something else in your current distribution setup

12:06 <rellla> adema: what board is that?

12:07 <adema> potato board / amlogic s905x

12:15 <rellla> so there are plenty of patches, which are applied by libreelec regarding the kernel, for example https://github.com/LibreELEC/LibreELEC.tv/blob/master/projects/Amlogic/patches/linux/amlogic-0005-HACK-drm-meson-add-YUV422-output-support.patch , which one smells highly to be the right one ...

12:16 <rellla> my strong guess is, that this is a display/hdmi issue...

12:23 <adema> Thanks! I can try to build a kernel with some of those patches and see what's what

15:57 <anarsoul> adema: btw, if you open a screenshot on your board do you still se flashy colors?

15:57 <anarsoul> or screenshot is OK?

16:02 <enunes> they mentioned the screenshot has the correct colors

16:03 <adema> well, I only opened the screenshot on another computer

16:03 <anarsoul> try opening it on the board?

16:03 <adema> yep I will

16:05 <adema> Just tried and yeah if I open the screenshot on the board displayed on the TV monitor, colors are wrong

16:05 <anarsoul> then it's display driver issue, not lima

16:10 <adema> thank you :)

23:50 <adema> I tired the libreelec patch and mesa master without much luck

23:50 <adema> colors are still wrong

23:51 <adema> also with mesa master, kodi is super slow

23:51 <anarsoul> try #linux-amlogic

23:51 <adema> yep asked there already

23:52 <adema> thank you for your time :)

23:53 <adema> also with mesa master I have a new warning when starting X11: (xfwm4:885): xfwm4-WARNING **: 23:47:52.667: Unsupported GL renderer (llvmpipe (LLVM 11.0.0, 128 bits)).
