Recommended Posts

This https://github.com/Joshua-Riek/ubuntu-rockchip/wiki/Orange-Pi-5 produces nearly 0 dropped frames at 4K 60fps on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXb3EKWsInQ


While latest Armbian_23.11.1_Orangepi5_jammy_legacy_5.10.160_gnome-amazingfated_desktop.img.xz and doing immediately after install, only these commands:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:liujianfeng1994/panfork-mesa
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:liujianfeng1994/rockchip-multimedia
sudo apt update
sudo apt dist-upgrade
sudo apt install mali-g610-firmware rockchip-multimedia-config

exactly like it says on https://www.armbian.com/orangepi-5/ and

sudo reboot

produces alot of dropped frames on same youtube 4K 60fps video!



What am I missing? Shouldnt there be equal accelerated video performance?

I believe the mesa panfork drivers are only available on Jammy/amazingfated versions of Armbian.  It actually says that in the line above the box with those lines you quoted.  I don't know the details.  Joshua-Riek is likely based on that as well.

 

In the future they may/will likely be available more widely.

So as I said, the image that I used Armbian_23.11.1_Orangepi5_jammy_legacy_5.10.160_gnome-amazingfated_desktop.img.xz is correct or am I still missing something?

 

I dont understand your statement... Am I using a wrong image?

There is/are threads/posts about Mesa Panfork either here or on the Collabora site or blog.  I believe the last version where the acceleration worked was based on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS.  I don't recall/know which Armbian version that mapped to.

 

I also remember people started to see that the acceleration no longer worked..  In any case, that's all I can remember. 

 

I don't have any more info on it so I won't be posting anything else in this thread.
