The VPU driver
Alright, the biggest issue with the ASUS Tinkerboard being "resolved", I'm starting to take care of the VPU driver, in order to use it with mainline kernels.
The hardware video encoding/decoding facilities are the real meat of the RK3288, and recent Rockchip boards.
The VPU driver aims to use these facilities in order to provide the smooth video playback experience that every Netflix/Hulu addict expects when buying such boards.
Which mean, once this part dealt with,
Alright, I think I got something working !
MPV using MPP seems to work and is able to read a 1080p WebM file and output a very fluid image !
However, I only tested this with 1m30s sample files so I'll have to test this more seriously.
Still, having the VPU driver works on 4.13 kernels is nice ! Now, I'll need testers !
So here's a patched kernel build, including the VPU driver in it : https://github.com/Miouyouyou/RockMyy-Build/releases/tag/v4.13-VPU-Test
