so downlaod firmware from : https://github.com/150balbes/Amlogic_s905-kernel/blob/master/vmpeg4_mc_5 https://github.com/150balbes/Amlogic_s905-kernel/blob/master/h263_mc https://github.com/150balbes/Amlogic_s905-kernel/blob/master/vh264_mc https://github.com/150balbes/Amlogic_s905-kernel/blob/master/vmpeg12_mc copy from windows to armbian pscp vmpeg12_mc root@192.168.1.200:/root/vmpeg12_mc pscp vh264_mc root@192.168.1.200:/root/vh264_mc pscp vmpeg4_mc_5 root@192.168.1.200:/root/vmpeg4_mc_5 pscp h263_mc root@192.168.1.200:/root/h263_mc what i found for the dest rep: drivers/media/platform/meson/vdec/vdec_platform.c meson/gx/vmpeg4_mc_5 meson/gx/h263_mc meson/gxl/vh264_mc meson/gxbb/vh264_mc meson/gx/vmpeg12_mc so create dir : mkdir /lib/firmware/meson mkdir /lib/firmware/meson/gxbb/ mkdir /lib/firmware/meson/gx/ mkdir /lib/firmware/meson/gxl/ not shure of this : chmod -R 765 /lib/firmware/meson copy file cp /root/vmpeg4_mc_5 /lib/firmware/meson/gx/ cp /root/h263_mc /lib/firmware/meson/gx/ cp /root/vh264_mc /lib/firmware/meson/gxl/ cp /root/vh264_mc /lib/firmware/meson/gxbb/ cp /root/vmpeg12_mc /lib/firmware/meson/gx/ oupps forget https://github.com/150balbes/Amlogic_s905-kernel/blob/master/vh265_mc pscp vh265_mc root@192.168.1.200:/root/vh265_mc cp /root/vh265_mc /lib/firmware/meson/gx/ But it don't work ( it don't call the firmware )

I think i find in the precompiled kernel of the test : http://s000.tinyupload.com/?file_id=14478364111643420975 we have : firmware\meson\gxbb with files : h263_mc vh264_mc vmpeg4_mc_5 vmpeg12_mc so im shure we need it. AND i find it here : https://github.com/150balbes/Amlogic_s905-kernel/blob/master/vmpeg4_mc_5 https://github.com/150balbes/Amlogic_s905-kernel/blob/master/h263_mc https://github.com/150balbes/Amlogic_s905-kernel/blob/master/vh264_mc https://github.com/150balbes/Amlogic_s905-kernel/blob/master/vmpeg12_mc but not in my sd car , i try to put it directly and make the test ... i come back with more info.

little chat with some vip : https://irclog.whitequark.org/linux-amlogic/2018-04-03 so kernel need V4L2 Video Support Amlogic v4l video device support = M Amlogic v4l video2 device support = yes but is not enough ... look for more info ... the main source is here : https://github.com/Elyotna/linux Hacking in a V4L2 M2M decoder for AMLogic SoCs

S905W ( x96 mini )

yes i but i need to boot on kernel 4.18 and at this moment i can only boot in 3.14.29 , when i try Armbian_5.44_S9xxx_Ubuntu_bionic_4.18.0-rc5_server_20180719.img.xz the box don't start. ( i suppose dtb of S905W not present )

I have a S09W 1G , so i need a gxl_p281_1g.dtb to meson-glxp281_1g.dtb ? ( no find in the new img Armbian_5.44_S9xxx_Ubuntu_bionic_4.18.0-rc5_server_20180719.img.xz )

Thank's !!! i will test it now !

I think it possible to put in in all distrib : https://forum.odroid.com/viewtopic.php?f=140&t=30724&p=229393#p229393 but it take long time to me ... if some one want to help he is welcome ...

I install ffmpeg with package with last libreelec / coreelec / alexelec ... no hw codec at all in ffmpeg binarie ...

OK i can check but my trouble is easy : i can't modify the system easily ... apt-get There is no working 'apt-get'. 'apt-get' is a command to install, update and remove software which is stored in a non local repo. 'apt-get' does nothing then connecting to such repo, downloads the software, unpacks the software, updates a big local database with all filepaths and other informations about the installed software or removes or updates installed Software. With LibreELEC it is not possible to change the system for security and stability reasons so even 'apt-get' would not be able to do this. We also dont have and want to maintain such a repo for various other great reasons. Also Ubuntu or Debian packages are often outdated and not compatible with LibreELEC TIP: use XBMC's addon browser to enhance your LibreELEC system ffmpeg -sh: ffmpeg: not found

@balbes150 an you help me to make this special kernel ? ( make a patch for this distrib could be possible ? ) or do you have in archive old version who it can works ?

Bad news i wrote to one dev and i replt ( thank's a lot again to him ) Hi, Bad news for you: Amlogic provides a very very bad support. The only way IMO to bring that board up is to find an old working binaries together with an old working kernel. Actually I have compiled ffmpeg for ordoird 16.x but the dirver in that kernel did not work, the decoded frames was like this one https://github.com/roman-rybalko/gst-aml-plugins/blob/master/cam.png. I would recommend to you give the ffmpeg up and try to enable Amlogic v4l2 driver. Look at this: https://magazine.odroid.com/article/enable-hardware-decoding-odroid-c2/ They added kernel options: V4L2 Video Support Amlogic v4l video device support = M Amlogic v4l video2 device support = yes If you manage to build & run that you then run hardware decoding via v4l using gstreamer or via ffmpeg with --enable-libv4l2 support (prebuilt binaries already have that). IMO running hardware decoding via V4L2 is the most proper way. Good luck! Two way : i find old kernel who works with or i retry since the start and try this with v4l2 ...

i find a post with a similar a bug in ffmpeg https://ffmpeg.org/pipermail/ffmpeg-user/2016-September/033420.html buffer @ 0x2873e00] Unable to parse option value "0x0" as image size [buffer@ 0x2873e00] Unable to parse option value "-1" as pixel format [buffer @ 0x2873e00] Unable to parse option value "0x0" as image size [buffer @ 0x2873e00] Error setting option video_size to value 0x0. resolution http://git.videolan.org/?p=ffmpeg.git;a=commitdiff;h=cef5bc0e6e2320d3903cf063d59cef83e91dbc3c i must find the same in aml ... so diifcult for me .... and i can't ask to ffmpeg because it's a aml fork ... And i am not a dev ...

in fact i test a lot of file with the same error : Source my receiver : /root/bin/ffmpeg -vcodec mpeg4_aml -i http://192.168.1.50:8001/+1:0:19:416:4:20FA:EEEE0000:0:0:0: /tmp/test.mp4 same error [buffer @ 0x55ae04db90] Unable to parse option value "0x0" as image size [buffer @ 0x55ae04db90] Unable to parse option value "-1" as pixel format [buffer @ 0x55ae04db90] Unable to parse option value "0x0" as image size [buffer @ 0x55ae04db90] Error setting option video_size to value 0x0. [graph 0 input from stream 0:0 @ 0x55adb90170] Error applying options to the filter. and works with h264. My check say it the amlcodec don't send good value of pix_fmt to ffmpeg ( it could be an integer variable ) so it's stop.

i try /root/bin/ffplay -vcodec h264_aml /root/Sintel.2010.1080p.mkv works 2 secondes after i have on error Impossible to convert between the formats supported by the filter 'ffplay_buffer' and the filter 'auto-inserted scaler 0' But if i use : /root/bin/ffplay -vcodec mpeg4_aml /root/Sintel.2010.1080p.mkv its works So Hw aml codecs works with ffplay but not in ffmpeg (pix_fmt value?)
