[mythtv-users] CLE266, lddmpeg: revisited.

[Stuart Felenstein]

Jelle, 
 
Yes, I have already tried it without hw decoding (using Windows).  Now I am in Linux hell (if that place really exists) trying the 2.4.23-epia1.  Well I'm almost out, and ready to test, but first, must understand /proc errors and rhine failure.  Oh my head hurts...

Ehm,
 
Stuart, you don't want to try mythtv with an EPIA without hw decoding... It'll go stuttering if you try to run an MPEG2 at 720x576 @ 6000 . QT is leaning too heavy on the processor to make it all go fluently.
 
the M10000 is strong enough however when you play back with mplayer or xine. Those 2 players are very optimized and have no trouble running mpeg2 at full pal resolution.
 
 
Jelle.

"The obvious question is, "Do I need to use the libddmpeg.so library?" It depends which mainboard you have and what video you want to play. Most EPIA boards require libddmpeg.so to play back DVDs, but the M10000 does not. The M10000 is powerful enough to decode the DVD in software (realkiwi suggests xine -Vxv)"

i'm trying to get my CLE266 working (EPIA-M), but compiling fails because it 
can't find lddmpeg. 

I'm running RedHat 8.0 and have the Via Binary drivers working, and as I 
understand lddmpeg is built into the via binary module - so the compile 
isn't going to find it. 

There is Ivor's lddmpeg which is fairly new (www.ivor.it i think). 

So..is the CLE266 supported using the Via Binary Drivers? If so, what do I 
tell settings.pro ? 

Or is the CLE266 only supported with Ivors lddmpeg ?? 

thanks
martin
