gnome3 1 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Hello All, I have Orange Pi one board with Armbian 5.20 Desktop and Kodi/mpv/mplayer installed. I want to make OP1 a home media center. Desktop is set to 1080p60 (1920x1080p 60Hz, by h3disp script). My problem: Everything works perfect when playing videos mkv (x264/h264), mpeg2, mpeg etc. for mpv, mplayer, kodi even 1080p materials. But I have a problem playing videos coded with MPEG4 (popular avi xvid). MPV config: vo=vdpauhwdec=vdpaufs=yesframedrop=voVideo looks like this: http://pasteboard.co/i5YOuOebV.jpg When I use vo=x11 and video is not in fullscreen everyting is OK, on full screen i get: LIBGL: Initialising glshim Playing: The.English.Patient[Eng]Dvdrip.Dino.avi (+) Video --vid=1 (mpeg4) (+) Audio --aid=1 (mp3) [vo/x11] Warning: this legacy VO has bad performance.

RagnerBG 29 Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 mpeg4 codec in vdpau for those boards is broken. For mplayer find config file, it usually is in /usr/local/etc/mplayer/mplayer.conf , but it can be in home folder also. And add this : vc=ffmpeg12vdpau,ffh264vdpau,ffhevcvdpau, But this will solve the problem for mplayer itself, not for SMplayer. I think i managed to solve the problem in SMplayer by adding this as custom parameter for launched mplayer. For mpv i haven't found full solution yet. The config file must be located here in Armbian - /etc/mpv/mpv.conf . And the parameter is "hwdec-codecs=all". I replace it with: hwdec-codecs=ffh264vdpau,ffmpeg12vdpau,ffwmv3vdpau,ffvc1vdpau,ffhevcvdpau, and this solve the issue with mpeg4 files, but i guess i missing some encoder, because the picture become with different colors (more green) for h264 files and is a bit laggy although it's not droping frames. Maybe you could execute the player from terminal with those parameters for mpeg4 files only and leave parameter in config as it is. For vlc i have no clue. It have to be mplayer fork, but i don't now where vdpau codecs can be selected. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jernej 230 Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 AFAIK mpeg4 is only partially implemented. If it doesn't work for you, try to use SW decoding instead. Just run mpv without any argument/configuration file. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
zador.blood.stained 764 Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Just run mpv without any argument/configuration file. Default Armbian configuration file forces HW decoding, so it needs to be explicitly disabled or config file should be temporarily renamed. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you put comma at the end of forced codecs? vc=ffmpeg12vdpau,ffh264vdpau,ffhevcvdpau, This is the exact line for mplayer. Comma is important because it allow player to use external decoder if there is no compatible. This should be xvid which have to be build in all Armbian distros, but in case it's missing, you can install it manually. Or ffmpeg. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RagnerBG 29 Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 You are right. I just tested and it's appear to nor working for all mpeg4 files. I tried 4 files, they looked like http://pasteboard.co/i5YOuOebV.jpg in mpv with "hwdec-codecs=all". With "hwdec-codecs=ffh264vdpau,ffmpeg12vdpau,ffwmv3vdpau,ffvc1vdpau,ffhevcvdpau," 2 of the files start playing normal, other 2 looked like http://pasteboard.co/i62Avb8k9.jpg . So try other mpeg4 file. But this obviously is not the solution for all yet. I don't have mplayer installed at the moment, but as far as i remember when i compile it from source, mpeg4 files sometimes start playing fine (in SMplayer with ffodivxvdpau disabled). But it's a bit of dice game. Every of my compilation, with the same steps and almost the same packages, lead to different results. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnome3 1 Posted January 5, 2017 Author Share Posted January 5, 2017 RagnerBG thank you for your explanation. This maybe sound like a dumb question, but is there anyway to change video codec on the fly (without writing to disk, example mpeg4->mkv (x264)) and then redirect videostream to mpv or mplayer?

rutopy 0 Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 +1 same issue on cubietruck, vc= is not supported now, how to fix this bug? up. ovc=ffmpeg12vdpau,ffh264vdpau,ffhevcvdpau, does not helped up2. change hwdec-codecs=all to hwdec-codecs=h264,vc1,wmv3,hevc,mpeg2video,vp9 helped, but CPU is 60% while mpeg4 playing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
magicfiresnake 6 Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 My 2 cents. Im running Orange PI PC+ and so far my best option for mpv is : vo=x11 hwdec-codecs=all hwdec=auto That way , nonscaled movie (an xvid avi) plays smooth, but full screen is jaggy, with noticeable banding, but it plays... you can watch a movie... kind of like streaming from video sites. I don't know if is relevant: I've previously installed ffmpeg and the Codecs Pack from The Software Boutique. Probably not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naguissa 3 Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Instead vo=x11 you could try vo=xvIt should perform a little bit better, even more on scaling.Enviado desde mi Jolla mediante Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
