I have been experimenting with XvMC optimizations in myth to get HDTV (pchdtv 3000) working with mixed results. I am not so interested in higher speed cpu solutions because the goal is a quiet (flash drive and fanless) frontend.
Server: Athlon-xp mobile 1.66 Ghz w/ g-force mmx 440 mx 7676 nvidia binary driver, I get acceptable performance for playback (<40% cpu 1920x1088) using XvMC with XvMCW set to XvMCNVIDIA Client: Commel Via C3-2 + CN400 Unichrome Pro chipset linux 2.6.14.3 debian with latest from unichrome debs libviaxvmc libviaxvmcw libxvmcw1 libxvmc1 and xserver-xorg I can play lower rest (<1080i) HDTV with Via Xvmc but I get Blue Background and error insufficient resources error with high res. If I switch to standard XvMC, it can't keep up. I saw someone mention they had HDTV working w/ this board before, so I am wondering if I am missing a compile option or something else I compiled from 12/10 svn myth and enabled xvmc,xvmc-pro configure showed -lXvMCW for xvmc lib Second issue, is transcode for HDTV working? mythtranscode currently segfaults for me, I read of a problem associated with lame-dev, is there aproblem with the current lame release (3.96) or is it something else? Thanks for any help/suggestions in advance, Dan _______________________________________________ mythtv-dev mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-dev
