i have no issue with 25 seconds, neither i must reboot to got the ambilight to work. 1080p work now, but as drdemin said, on 1080p the horizontally stripes look like sqeezed/shifted.
Btw: 4k isn’t working (dmesg output: ge2d: ge2d timeout). Only the left side work. (But that was just a note, 1080p is way more important. )
One thing I am seeing is that after a while of using Hyperion the performance of the led updates completely craps out, e.g. drops to like 1fps on led updates.
The system then becomes very unstable and will hard lock randomly.
This bad performance and random crashing then continued after reboots which makes me think that whatever is going on is causing some component to potentially be overheating and crapping out.
After one reboot my Ethernet just stopped working (switch showed cable unplugged), rebooted again, still not working, after about 2-3 minutes of doing nothing it just came back up by itself.
Incidentally after leaving the system for 5-10 mins and starting Hyperion again, the led update speed is back to normal which is what makes me think that it might be to do with a component overheating.
After a few hours of leaving it alone I’m back to the same situation as you now.
Only left hand side is working again And I’m now seeing ge2d timeout in dmesg.
Edit ok I’m stupid, after updating the Hyperion add-on I forgot that it enables it.
I was essentially spinning up two instances of Hyperion which was causing my 25 seconds dropout issue.
So with @Portisch build the ge2d errors are gone for me 1080p and 4k h265 capture is working but 1080 content Is only displaying to LEDs at about 1-3 fps
Hello,
I receive the notification when an update is available, but it is not done automatically. Yet, “auto update” is enabled. What’s new in this version of the day?
For my part, once this little audio bug and the standby problem solved, I can say that for my use (multimedia UHD), Kodi N2 is the most powerful combo at all levels. Thanks guys.
Can you try before starting to play a video: echo 1 > /sys/module/amvdec_h264/parameters/enable_switch_fense
And use the CE image I posted before. For me it is working with the Avengers 1080p trailer without any problem.
And also for h265: echo 3 | tee /sys/module/amvdec_h265/parameters/double_write_mode
When I turn projector on first and then N2 later, 60hz option is missing (both GUI and whitelist). Sometimes it even set 576p as default resolution. Dispinfo
When I turn N2 on first and then projector later, 60hz option is available. Dispinfo
What would have been the problem?
I don’t have this issue with my TV, no matter which get powered on first.
Thanks but it made little to no difference, about 3-5 updates per second.
I already use 3 for double write mode in h265. I let people know of that value back on odroid c1 if I remember rightly.
It’s not only in h264, also behaves the same in vc-1.
H265 both 1080 and 4k is fine
Thank you for trying to find a decision. But enable_switch_fense with your image is not working for me. I have the same result as before. Good way to test is this video from youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wqFH-NZUfQ4 in 1080p mode.
When N2 goes to sleep, it does not always wake up with the TV. I have to turn off the TV / amp 3 to 4 times so that the N2 finally wakes up. So, for now, I do not use the day before; N2 all the time on. The system is on an SD Card; as soon as I have received my eMMC, I will try.
When switching to a 4k channel in liveTV I see only 1/4 of the screen showing the 4k image. I deleted the resolutions branch from the guisettings.xml. However, after restarting the box the resolutions are restored again. What do I miss? I’m on the 0511 nightly.
