first of all many thanks to the Corelec Team! The device works really, really good, stable and fast.
Unfortunally i have a problem with my Hyperion ambilight related with resolution 1080p and higher.
When i watch a video under 1080p the Ambilight works really good, but 1080p and above, the Leds’s doesn’t work properly. Only the left side is working (partially).
The dmesg output shows often: “ge2d: ge2d timeout!!!”
Under 1080p, everything is fine and the ambilight works properly (also in the Kodi menu). I’ve tested the Ambilight with other devices like my Rpi and Dreambox and there it works fine. The problem seems to be the Odroid N2
Here you can see that only the left side works. The other Leds show undefined colors or are black/off.
I think it is possible to test this without connected Led’s. Install the Hyperion Addon, then over the Web Interface: “Configuration -> Controller Type -> (debug) file” and in the Led Layout Tab for example ~300 Leds…
When you play a video, you can see in the Led Visualisation the adressed Led.
We do it differently than Hardkernel. Herdkernel makes emmc the default and their uboot is running on emmc. If you have CE on emmc and SD it will boot from SD.
morning @Ray i see the 7th may image is still suffering with the live tv dvb-t2 slowdown issue (not rebooted box recently so havent checked latest nightly yet), is there any movement on a resolution for this, other than to disable deinterlace (assuming thats what the line below does). The command below does ‘fix’ the issue, im just not sure if this is THE solution or simply a workaround for now?, one thing i can say is that it does fix the slowdown issue when watching hd live tv.
If it is a workaround only then im happy to do some debug for you if it helps identify a better solution.
Ok cool, thanks Ray, can I assume then that the bypass_all hack will make it into a nightly release or do I need to keep that in the autostart.sh for the foreseeable?
No it won’t because it is personal taste. I do not care about interlaced video. Imo it is something useless from the past. Everyone can decide for themselves what looks better.
i understand what you are saying about personal taste, but for hd live tv it is broken without this fix, so its a bit more than personal taste in regards to deinterlace capability, at least this is true for people who need hd live tv, i accept that is probably a minority of the user base.
in any case, im happy with the workaround, and appreciate the reply ray, i shall carry on with the entry in my autostart.sh
