[Hardware Graphic/Video Acceleration in H3 Mainline]

Took some time to resume working on it...

 

At the moment, i'm only able to get Kodi working fine with hw decoding.

MPV and VLC are a no-go.

[Hardware Graphic/Video Acceleration in H3 Mainline]

Yes, i used some of the LibreElec patches and kwiboo and lrusak ffmpeg forks,  i will recheck my sources and test your suggestion.

thanks a lot

[Hardware Graphic/Video Acceleration in H3 Mainline]

Kodi with KMS/DRM/GBM backend only

Tried MPV, but it didn't seem to work . Looks like MPV is not supported http://linux-sunxi.org/Sunxi-Cedrus#Player_Support

we're tweaking the sources and scripts to release a new RetrOrangePi version , so hopefully a working tutorial will be available soon

[Hardware Graphic/Video Acceleration in H3 Mainline]

Hi there, RetrOrangePi developer here. You will definitely get the perfect solution from Jernej, but this is just to keep your hopes high, achieved by experimenting with several sources so i will need some time to get documentation and tutorials straight
