Are you using the 256.35 driver or the 190.53 driver bundled with b134? There have been quite a few VDPAU fixes in the subsequent driver releases. 190.53 We really want to concentrate on the current release driver. There won't be any more updates or investigation of problems on the R190 branch that can't be reproduced in R256. Ok. Lets talk about one video available for both of us. While playing nature_704x576_25Hz_1500kbits.h264 Your original query was for a BDAV file (hd-video.m2ts) which is why I was concentrating on that format. Grab this file from http://www.sendspace.com/file/p3lasn. Play it with: mplayer -vo vdpau -vc ffh264vdpau,ffmpeg12vdpau,ffvc1vdpau,ffwmv3vdpau, test1.m2ts On b134 + 190.53 the playback will be choppy. Update the driver to 256.35 in a new BE (changing only the NVIDIA driver) and the playback will be smooth. ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

For media players I always recommend Fluendo before trying to roll your own. Cannot test OS support for SSE, leaving disabled. . When I get some time I will look into the SSE message. See the fix for SSE/SSE2 below in cpudetect.c. Maybe someone could request pushing this to the upstream code. SSE and SSE2 are enabled on my Atom N330 so hopefully this will help speedup the CPU bound portions of the playback. (I'm not certain the __sun is the correct macro going forward, but it is the only thing that seemed to work with all the compilers I tested). On a Atom N330 + ION 4GB system not on the Oracle network I loaded b134 and added the gcc-43, svn, gettext, and x11/header packages from the /dev repository.

My intent is to boot the kernel with ‘physmem=somevalue’ to limit the physical memory available to the OS, and then use this kernel module to manage the rest of physical memory to support some code that we are porting from another OS. This approach assumes physical memory is contiguous and any space above physmem is reserved for your driver's exclusive use. I believe you will have issues implementing this approach. Does the physical memory get accessed by a hardware device? One of the things the module needs to do is map this reserved physical memory into the kernel virtual address space so that we can write data management structs etc. into it. The module will then service ioctl's from user space, as well as calls from other kernel modules to manipulate the memory.

Re: [osol-discuss] Bordeaux 2.0.2 for Solaris and OpenSolaris Released
On 03/ 1/10 06:19 PM, valrh...@gmail.com wrote: ... A quick question on flash player: can you get the beta 10.1b3 release working? The reason that I ask is about GPU acceleration. There is much better GPU acceleration in the Windows version that doesn't appear in Linux (at least) because the video acceleration isn't standard (there's a bunch of posts on that at Adobe Labs). I don't know enough of the details to understand how Bordeaux/Wine talks to the GPU in OpenSolaris, but if you could get the Windows flash player with full GPU acceleration to give you the same (or similar) performance on OpenSolaris, that would be a stunning technical achievement. FlashPlayer 10 is (thankfully) working properly on OpenSolaris, but its GPU acceleration is limited, and video performance is certainly less than that on Windows (when I reboot and use FlashPlayer 10.1beta. I'm not sure if Adobe plans to spend much time on full GPU acceleration on OpenSolaris, since I think their perception is that the market is small, so if we could use Bordeaux to circumvent this with Windows versions (as opposed to using VirtualBox or something else, which isn't that fast), that would be spectacular! Let's dispel some myths: 1. Flash Player on Solaris (and Linux) will use GPU acceleration via OpenGL for certain operations like scaling. Verify under Settings that Enable hardware acceleration is checked. On a A/C power miserly Atom+ION nettop, flash videos such as: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0kNEo8OxrT8 use only a small amount of CPU even in full screen mode. 2. The video acceleration isn't standard issue was primarily for H.264. Some background info from Adobe: http://blogs.adobe.com/penguin.swf/2010/01/welcome_to_the_thicket.html http://blogs.adobe.com/penguin.swf/2010/01/solving_different_problems.html There have been many private communications to Adobe on how to use the standard X and OpenGL APIs to resolve the generic UI issues in addition to using VDPAU for full acceleration of H.264. A specific post from NVIDIA: http://blogs.adobe.com/penguin.swf/2010/01/solving_different_problems.html#comment-2133401 Bordeaux on Solaris is a wonderful thing for running Windows clients that provide unique functionality, but we shouldn't rely on this as the solution for operations where Solaris clients already have the functionality or only need minor tweaks. ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

Yes, but I would think that one of the main reasons for buying a Toshiba laptop with OpenSolaris pre-installed is to run a software stack that draws heavily from Sun's F.O.S.S. offerings, and probably the fourth most widely used piece of multi-platform Sun free open source software (after Java, MySQL, and OpenOffice) is VirtualBox, and I think it's safe to assume that most users are going to enable virtualization in the BIOS so that they can get better performance from their VirtualBox virtual machines.
