[How to use Mali-450 hardware video decoder in Linux]

FFMPEG - FFPLAY - Hardware acceleration for mali gpu.

 

I want use GPU of CPU S905x (Mali 450) for hardware video decoder 

Use FFMPEG with vdpau or vaapi but not better.

Download ffplay, my ffmpeg compiled with vdpau, vaapi and run ffplay for test video full hd: http://mirror.vp9.tv/ffmpeg/ffmpeg-3.3-vdpau-vaapi.tar.gz
How to play file full hd not lag, and smooth.

 

Pls try test :

• #ffplay test_fullhd.mp4 (download form: http://mirror.vp9.tv/video/test_fullhd.mp4)
• Video demo: https://www.youtube.com/edit?o=U&video_id=GBZ9s8ScHA8

You can see clip so lag. CPU busy, 

I using board: MXQPro S905XQ - v1.0

 

 

Use ARM Studio - streamline for check GPU.

greetings all

I'm new to the forum and have been tinkering with balbes' .imgs on my nexbox with the s905x chip and wanted to say thanks to all the devs. Also I like to tinker and test and break my systems... so I'm offering to test new imgs apps etc on my nexbox and report findings BTW following a samsung guide iv managed to overclock it and after I mod it with a cooling system. I believe its got potential...

N E Wayz thanks and can someone point me to nightly testing.

Wellcome.

I can help you test with your cooling system if you send to me your design cooling system. 

If you need to test large numbers, I can use more two hundred to test the mainboard s905x.

...

But... who can help me run Debian/Ubuntu on eMMC.

 

Uboot ready update load os from /dev/data.

initargs=root=/dev/data rootflags=data=writeback rw console=ttyS0,115200n8 console=tty0 no_console_suspend consoleblank=0 fsck.repair=yes net.ifnames=0 mac=${mac}

 

Copy ubuntu done and "Writing kernel image..." dd if="boot.img" of="/dev/boot" bs=64K status=none && sync

 

Pls see file error: http://pastebin.com/pS17yR01

He talked: need rebuild the INITRAMFS (with support for running from internal memory). but i dont know option, and module support internal memory.

I think need build with aml_util and aml_nftl_dev with kernel

 

Who can help me rebuild the INITRAMFS?

This version will NOT install to the internal memory automatically (using a script install.sh).

Uboot ready update load os from /dev/data.

I try install Ubuntu (Armbian_5.24_S9xxx_mate_Ubuntu_xenial_3.14.29_desktop_20170220.img) into internal memory (eMMC) by run script : /root/install.sh but script install finish ("Complete copy OS to eMMC parted DATA")

I think have problem with kernel when i finished copy ubuntu into /dev/data

 

Pls fix this error! Thank alot
