That is good to know, but it implies that 'About Firmware' needs an
addition for (some) nvidia cards ?  At the moment we only cover
video cards in

Firmware for ATI video chips (R600 and later)

Also, did you have to load other firmware for your Skylake, or was
that just the CPU firmware ?


I do have /lib/firmware/cpia2/stv0672_vp4.bin which, IIRC, is for a
camera on my laptop.  Nothing else for either my Haswell or Skylake.

The details for nvidia are at https://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/VP4/


Yesterday, after som time, found

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nouveau-fw

An interesting thing is that I didn't have to reboot or reinstall the
kernel. Not sure about mesa, because only tested after reinstalling it.


Interesting link.  Do you think the addition to the firmware page for
nvidia firmware needs to be updated or is is it good enough?

I like it. Not sure about the notes

https://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/VP4/

{{{
In order to get pre-NVC0 chips to work, you need to

 Extract firmware from the blob (see VideoAcceleration).

to

/etc/mplayer/mplayer.conf
}}}


I didn't add that part to the book because it really doesn't apply to us. 
 We install a recent Mesa and kernel.  The more important part is really 
at the VideoAcceleration link.


I didn't have a problem with mplayer, just the mlt package, but I note 
that my ~/.mplayer/gui.conf did not get updated with a new mplayer install.

I did it to /etc/mplayer/gui.conf, which I copied from
/etc/mplayer/example.conf, wich already had the line ready to be
uncommented.


Alternatively, I had obtained:

configuring with the gui.

To be sure, I did (with either configurations:

Looks as if I misinterpreted past output from xine: on the kaveri in
7.9-rc2 I again see a maximum size of 0x0 reported, like on my other
machines.  So I will stop building libvdpau-va-gl.

I don't have any nvidia machines, but on the integrated GPU in the
haswell I got

libva info: va_openDriver() returns 0
vo_vdpau: vdpau API version : 1
vo_vdpau: vdpau implementation description : OpenGL/VAAPI/libswscale backend 
for VDPAU
vo_vdpau: maximum video surface size for chroma type 4:2:2 is 1920x1080
vo_vdpau: maximum video surface size for chroma type 4:2:0 is 1920x1080
vo_vdpau: maximum output surface size is 0x0
vo_vdpau: Failed to check vdpau get/put bits native capability : 
VDP_STATUS_NO_IMPLEMENTATION

Those last two lines suggested to me that it was not useful.

For your GeForce, perhaps it only supports WMV3/WMV9.  I had
thought you were using a skylake with integrated video.


That's my workstation.  My development system is a i7 Haswell without 
embedded video.  It has the nvidia card.


The bottom line seems to be that this stuff is sensitive to hardware.

Works fine with mplayer-SVN-r37794 (notice that ffmpeg is newer than 3.0.

{ time mplayer big_buck_bunny.mp4; } 2>&1 | tee
big_buck_bunny.mp4-mplayer.log

Could not get language to change to C above.


For VLC, needed to choose VA-API via DRM.

{ time env LC_ALL=C vlc big_buck_bunny.mp4; } 2>&1 | tee
big_buck_bunny.mp4-vlc.log


My general impression is that mplayer was better (sound and video).

The mlt package installs an executable named melt.  This program plays an
mp4 file.  The one I use for testing is

http://anduin.linuxfromscratch.org/~bdubbs/files/big_buck_bunny.mp4

It is a 1 minute video/audio file for testing.

It plays fine with ffplay, vlc, and mplayer.  In a previous version of BLFS,
SVN-20150703, it also plays fine with melt.

The problem with the latest version is that I get:

I've tried rebuilding mlt and its dependencies as well as ffmpeg, x264,
libva and libvdpau.  I also tried reverting from mlt-0.9.8 to mlt-0.9.6.

Can I please get someone to build/test melt (package mlt) for me and see if
it works for you.


I can't test it for the moment, but does vdpau actually work for
you ?  I normally use xine to check that - on most of my boxen it
moans (if run from a term) if vdpau is not available - and neither
my SandyBridge, my Phenom, nor my Haswell have workign vdpau so I
stopped building it on them.

The Aruba used to have working vdpau (that mobo died), the Kaveri
does - I'm on the Kaveri, but no qt5 in this build and I'm
struggling to get libreoffice to build after turning off SSLv2.


xine plays the file fine, but I do get some messages:

I can't test it for the moment, but does vdpau actually work for
you ?  I normally use xine to check that - on most of my boxen it
moans (if run from a term) if vdpau is not available - and neither
my SandyBridge, my Phenom, nor my Haswell have workign vdpau so I
stopped building it on them.

The Aruba used to have working vdpau (that mobo died), the Kaveri
does - I'm on the Kaveri, but no qt5 in this build and I'm
struggling to get libreoffice to build after turning off SSLv2.

[blfs-dev] Video problems

2016-03-01 Thread Bruce Dubbs
I've run into a brick wall.  I'm trying to finish up kf5 but can't get 
kdenlive to work.  Trying to trace it, I looked at the dependencies.


The mlt package installs an executable named melt.  This program plays an 
mp4 file.  The one I use for testing is


http://anduin.linuxfromscratch.org/~bdubbs/files/big_buck_bunny.mp4

It is a 1 minute video/audio file for testing.

It plays fine with ffplay, vlc, and mplayer.  In a previous version of 
BLFS, SVN-20150703, it also plays fine with melt.


The problem with the latest version is that I get:

$ melt big_buck_bunny.mp4

[producer avformat] big_buck_bunny.mp4

VDPAU failed to initialize decoder
(An invalid/unsupported VdpDecoderProfile value was supplied.)
[h264 @ 0x1eee2c0] Could not find an AVHWAccel for the pixel format:
vdpau_h264 Assertion choices[n] != AV_PIX_FMT_NONE
failed at libavcodec/utils.c:1258
Aborted

I've tried rebuilding mlt and its dependencies as well as ffmpeg, x264, 
libva and libvdpau.  I also tried reverting from mlt-0.9.8 to mlt-0.9.6.


Can I please get someone to build/test melt (package mlt) for me and see 
if it works for you.
