14:11 <adema> Hello everyone! I have a lepotato amlogic board and I am trying to get kodi to hardware video decoding. I am not running LibreELEC myself, but I believe the amlogic version of LibreELEC does support this?

14:12 <adema> I am running a kernel 5.16 from mainline with the libreELEC amlogic patches and I am able to get HEVC hardware decoding with mpv

14:12 <adema> but I have no clue how to tell kodi to use the VPU

14:12 <adema> or even if it requires additional kodi patches?

14:20 <ndufresne> in theory it should just work, but perhaps you didn't build ffmpeg correctly ?

14:21 pauljw has quit [Quit: Paging Jeff Dunham, Please pickup your dummy at the Whitehouse...]

14:25 <adema> I used the ffmpeg provided by my distribution

14:25 <adema> Is there a way to try with ffplay that the hw decoding works?

14:34 volki57 has joined #libreelec

14:42 <adema> I am using ffmpeg 4.4.1 and kodi 19.0.0 if that helps to narrow down the issue

15:03 <LEBot> [slack] <chewitt> adema: multiple things are needed

15:04 <LEBot> [slack] <chewitt> a) use my 5.17.y kernel branch for kernel

15:04 <LEBot> [slack] <chewitt> b) use this ffmpeg branch https://github.com/jc-kynesim/rpi-ffmpeg/commits/dev/4.4/rpi_import_1

15:04 <LEBot> [slack] <chewitt> c) standard Kodi, built to use external ffmpeg so it uses ^ that source

15:05 <LEBot> [slack] <chewitt> I’m not sure how mpv runs (never used it myself) but if it depends on system ffmpeg/libav then it probably won’t work (or work well)

15:07 <LEBot> [slack] <chewitt> this image has everything inside (for testing) https://chewitt.libreelec.tv/testing/LibreELEC-AMLGX.arm-10.85.0-lepotato.img.gz

15:12 <adema> thanks for the input

15:13 <adema> mpv plays HEVC 10bit using hevc_v4l2m2m fine with the LibreELEC kernel patches

15:13 <adema> i'll try the custom ffmpeg

15:19 <LEBot> [slack] <chewitt> GXL devices internally process 10-bit video but output everything as 8-bit .. hardware limitation

15:19 <LEBot> [slack] <chewitt> GXM should output 10-bit natively IIRC

15:20 <LEBot> [slack] <chewitt> the ffmpeg patches are needed for ‘seeking’ support, which works well for H264 and VP9 and less well for HEVC (still experimental driver)
