Has anybody tried compiling mpv-0.35 + PR14690 within Trixie and ffmpeg 7.x.x? If anyone is curious... mpv-0.37 fails in the compilation step in ad-spdif.c due to an incompatible pointer But mpv-0.38 (without patches) compiles successfully

Dont write that "fbi works correctly", when it is not. The display remains white, and the kernel doesn't show any errors. * Re-check your wiring * Disconnect the touch part of the LCD pins * Try reversing the polarity: dc-gpios = <&pio 2 6 1>; << change the 1 to 0 reset-gpios = <&pio 2 9 1>; << change the 1 to 0 If the CPU is successful sending the reset signal, the data/command, the chip select and any bytes through SPI, at least the LCD should turn black.

I got my issue resolved with labwc+greetd+nwg-hello See this link https://github.com/nwg-piotr/nwg-hello/issues/43 Please check it and post any corrections if needed Getting rpi-greeter (no python) and wf-panel-pi (combines panel and launcher in compact form) would be ideal, but not resolved yet. If anyone is interested in getting rpi-greeter working, this is my partial progress, and I still cannot make it start under lightdm, without any X11: sudo apt install lightdm accountsservice polkitd sudo apt install libgtk-layer-shell-dev librsvg2-common sudo apt install gnome-common gobject-introspection gir1.2-gtk-3.0 These might be needed. I installed them the day after I installed greetd and ngw-hello. Note: I am working from a minimal debian trixie image appmenu-gtk-module-common libaccountsservice-dev gir1.2-accountsservice-1.0 liblightdm-gobject-dev liblightdm-gobject-1-0 libgtk-3-dev gnome-common nasm ~$ mkdir rpi-greeter ; cd rpi-greeter wget https://github.com/raspberrypi-ui/pi-greeter/archive/refs/heads/master.zip unzip master.zip ; cd rpi-greeter-master autogen.sh ./configure make sudo make install Change /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf with: greeter-session=pi-greeter-labwc Test with: $ sudo lightdm --test-mode --debug or $ sudo systemctl start lightdm $ journalctl -b -u lightdm.service The error is: Oct 13 22:01:49 orangepizero3 lightdm[845]: Error updating user /org/freedesktop/Accounts/User1000: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.Accounts.Error.PermissionDenied: Not authorized: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1 was not provided by any .service files DEBUG: Could not run plymouth --ping: Failed to execute child process ?plymouth?

Thank you. I meant to ask about that PR14690 I would rather stay with trixie and low fps, because it seems easier to solve my other problem: need 100% wayland and 0% X11 due to a LCD driver problem.

Hello Jock, Can you confirm that you use the patch in mpv PR1460, or something else? --vo=gpu or -vo=gpu-next? I installed mesa-vulkan-drivers today, with some difference in the mpv log, but same performance I also get: [vo/gpu-next/libplacebo] Found no suitable device, giving up. [vo/gpu-next/libplacebo] Failed initializing vulkan device and ... Does it matter? If I want to test the latest libplacebo route (with git clone https://code.videolan.org/videolan/libplacebo.git...) do I need to uninstall libplacebo and libplacebo-dev?

This bug is not showing again with Trixie, and the repository labwc 0.8.3 (same), same orange pi zero 3, same HDMI monitor.

Those who are not getting hardware acceleration in Trixie, should compile their own mpv-0.4.0 with patches (in addition of using the ffmpeg-v4l2request deb version) Some guidelines here: https://forum.armbian.com/topic/32449-repository-for-v4l2request-hardware-video-decoding-rockchip-allwinner/page/5/#findComment-226875

I was successful in compiling mpv-0.3.9 + the 2 patches from PR14690. I downloaded the release mpv as a tar.gz, expanded it, and applied the 2 patches. One hunk failed but it wasnt needed A 720p h264 video played with 10% CPU: (note that the options are --hwdec=v4l2request --drm-drmprime-video-plane=primary --drm-draw-plane=overlay -v Next, I tried with a 1080p h264... in this case, I needed the extraargs=cma=256M line in armbianEnv.txt. Result, low CPU usage, but dropped frames (choppy video) I didn't need to install mpv, because I ran it from within the build directory Removing the --drm-drmprime-video-plane=primary --drm-draw-plane=overlay from the options didn't make any positive or negative difference I repeated the test with mpv-0.4.0 and the result was the same. I am using linux 6.15.4... tomorrow I will re-test with linux 6.16.8 and again with labwc (wayland) UPDATE: with labwc-0.8.3-1 (from Trixie repo), 720p playback is fine, and 1080p playback drops 220 frames over 10 seconds. However it seems that it activates an X11 renderer, and XWayland appears in the htop list. <-- only if started from SSH session, with "DISPLAY=:0" How can I ensure that pure wayland is used? <-- answer: start mpv from within a terminal in labwc, like foot mpv log: When I try mpv-0.3.9 (from the source folder, so I dont need to install it), I get the same result: v4l2request works perfectly in 720p, but choppy in 1080p

Anyone trying to compile mpv 0.3.9, is it possible to do it with Linux 6.15? With the libraries in Debian Trixie? (considering mpv 0.3.9 is from sept 2024, and Trixie came with mpv-0.4.0) https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/releases I think I am failing the compilation's linking stage, because I had a different mpv and its libraries already installed. Probably I need to format my microSD and re-image.

I am not sure if I am using the git command correctly to get mpv-0.3.9 with PR14690.. Please help roberto@orangepizero3:~$ mkdir mpv-official roberto@orangepizero3:~$ cd mpv-official/ roberto@orangepizero3:~/mpv-official$ git clone https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv roberto@orangepizero3:~/mpv-official$ cd mpv roberto@orangepizero3:~/mpv-official/mpv$ git checkout -b release/0.39 roberto@orangepizero3:~/mpv-official/mpv$ gh pr checkout 14690 <- downloads and applies the v4l2request changes roberto@orangepizero3:~/mpv-official/mpv$ nano video/out/gpu/hwdec.c <-- I see the added changes in the hwdec.c file roberto@orangepizero3:~/mpv-official/mpv$ meson setup build <-- everything configures ok, but at the end, it shows that I got mpv-0.40 I asked in the mpv github and a contributor said they are waiting for ffmpeg first incorporate v4l2request, then they will add the feature in mpv Ref: https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/pull/14690#issuecomment-3369829206 Applying the pr14690 manually on top of mpv 0.3.9 is something that i could do, if there’s no choice For later: Use something like https://github.com/foo/bar/commit/${SHA}.patch , to try to get the PR14690 https://stackoverflow.com/questions/21903805/how-to-download-a-single-commit-diff-from-github Patches to apply: https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/commit/d9bb7241bbc8dfdf1c76293d28cb162c2688e2b6.patch https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/commit/17a8ef7e8752e39f8c5284127b5d7ba1cce64f48.patch Previous discussions and ffmpeg too: https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/pull/14511 https://ffmpeg.org/pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2024-August/332034.html https://ffmpeg.org/pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2024-August/332035.html How to patch. Finally, I got this error since the first linking action [307/310] Linking target mpv FAILED: mpv cc -o mpv libmpv.so.2.3.0.p/aud... (and over a thousand linking errors)

I thought that v4l2request was exclusively in this github project and branch: https://github.com/philipl/mpv/tree/v4l2request Which github project and branch/release are you trying? I successfully compiled and installed the mpv from https://github.com/philipl/mpv/tree/v4l2request I made the /etc/mpv.conf as per the original post Result: 50% cpu in 4 cores, about half dropped frames: I don't see any mention of hwdec=drm in the mpv log I used the libplacebo from Trixie, not compiled on my own... I can try that next. <- final update for this post: libplacebo downloaded and built by myself did not help... but now I will try mpv 0.3.9

Ok the problem is that I didn't download the correct source code: This: wget https://github.com/philipl/mpv/archive/refs/heads/v4l2request.zip Gets me a hwdec.c without the lines: extern const struct ra_hwdec_driver ra_hwdec_v4l2request; extern const struct ra_hwdec_driver ra_hwdec_v4l2request_overlay; And possibly more missing stuff New try for source download: $ git clone https://github.com/philipl/mpv.git $ cd mpv $ git checkout -b v4l2request origin/v4l2request $ nano video/out/gpu/hwdec.c <-- contains the changes for v4l2 request, then exit nano without changes $ meson setup build <-- shows the same warnings as before $ meson compile -C build ... I still get this build error Can anybody suggest, how I use these instuctions: https://gist.github.com/linguisticmind/d765a12e121bfdef2e8878b38d11b5ef But use this repo's specific branch: https://github.com/philipl/mpv/tree/v4l2request ? UPDATE: I followed the first step of https://gist.github.com/linguisticmind/d765a12e121bfdef2e8878b38d11b5ef and it installed many more dependencies than I did by myself manually. I returned to the git folder source from philipl, and tried again: Now "meson setup build" shows x11 and wayland support... all the options are enabled, except d3d11

Yep... that looks like the method I had thought about: get the source from https://github.com/philipl/mpv.git#branch=v4l2request and compile it with the v4l2request option I have old experience making redhat rpms, but I need to learn how to make debian debs UPDATE: I wrote my self built debian trixie xfce image with 6.15.4 from July (need 6.13+ for v4l2 kernel functions)... then Install the apt.undo.it repo and ffmpeg, as per the first post of this thread (Following guide from https://github.com/philipl/mpv/tree/v4l2request) $ sudo apt install libavcodec-dev (installs libavutil-dev libswresample-dev automatically) $ sudo apt install libavdevice-dev (installs libavfilter-dev libavformat-dev libpostproc-dev libswscale-dev automatically) $ sudo apt install meson cmake pkg-config Download code: $ wget https://github.com/philipl/mpv/archive/refs/heads/v4l2request.zip $ unzip v4l2request.zip $ cd mpv-4l2request Install libplacebo source $ mkdir -p subprojects $ git clone https://code.videolan.org/videolan/libplacebo.git --depth=1 --recursive subprojects/libplacebo $ sudo apt install libplacebo-dev libass-dev Build: $ meson setup build ^ Finally all the essential dependencies were found, and the disabled features are with a RED "NO"... but v4l2request is ENABLED Compile: $ meson compile -C build FAILED /usr/bin/ld: libmpv.so.2.5.0.p/video_out_gpu_hwdec.c.o:/home/roberto/mpv-4l2request/build/../video/out/gpu/hwdec.c:284: more undefined references to `ra_hwdec_v4l2request' follow /usr/bin/ld: libmpv.so.2.5.0.p/video_out_gpu_hwdec.c.o:(.data.rel.ro+0x8): undefined reference to `ra_hwdec_v4l2request_overlay' Does anybody have any idea how to fix this? What to check? I ran out of time again to research Maybe its the libplacebo (which is a very bad name for GPU libraries)... Debian Trixie=7.349 (mid 2024), VLC repo=7.351 (mid 2025) Repeating the mpv compilation, with libplacebo from VLC There's no wayland or X11 support... someone please please tell me what to do Build... failed Same ra_hwdec_v4l2request and ra_hwdec_v4l2request_request missing error for next try: install wayland-protocols-dev, libx11-dev, libgl-dev, libwayland-dev

Did you mean that you had success getting HW acceleration in Arch Linux+mpv-0.40.0? Which github page did you use, and did you use the standard official instructions in that github page, to build?
