CSC Armbian for RK322x TV box boards

@Harleyyyu

my 2 cents thought .....

We are talking about a 10 dollars soc . Is already a great milestone it is " just working"
Anyway.. If you achieve any good result let's us know

Okay here's a huge update and a win for me:

While i stopped playing with the kernel, i focused on improving openauto by replacing GStreamer with ffmpeg and utilizing the same RTAudio to Alsa Patch which achieved the following things:

• 720p 60 1080p 60 FPS Stream (cma set to 265)
• RTAudio to Alsa (Video and Audio are synced)
• Low Latency Touch or Mouse Response

Now while there is still some bugs like when i disconnect my phone by pulling the usb cord results into a segment fault i'd say that's just a minor bug that can be fixed along the way.

Huge thanks to the experimental ffmpeg patches and the guide @jock

PS: hopefully someone can help me improve the code even more, i know this board is capable of being an android auto head unit for those who like to build it on their own: Github: Openauto-rk3229-armbian (requires you to compile aasdk)

@Harleyyyu

Your project could be interesting , I would suggest to open a dedicated 3ad on It own so people can contribute.

 

As you have already realized by yourself quite all  hardware and drivers aspects of this rk322x soc have bene investigated by @jockand/or @ilmich

 

But if you achieve any progress on GENERAL drivers and performance that isn't already been discussed or achieved you can came back here to share

 

Thanks

Hey just checking in.

I haven't forgotten about this yet, I want to make sure everything is repeatable and possible to do on multiple versions of armbian before I write a guide and confuse a lot of people.

Noticing that mpv doesn't work, I tried to do what jock suggested to Harleyyyu and update to a newer kernel version.

So far... no luck. Seems like the problem boils down to having to write u-boot.bin to the eMCP before burning the actual OS onto it. 

I'll write again if anything goes.
