Hi,
I just bought one of these units
(http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=5038#ov). The
price was right, and I had the RAM and SSD already.
The first thing I did was install Lubuntu and a mythfrontend. It works
pretty well, but my regular frontend is a quad core AMD with an Nvidia
GT 730. There are definitely quality differences in the video.
vainfo gives me this:
vainfo: VA-API version: 0.38 (libva 1.6.0)
vainfo: Driver version: Intel i965 driver for Intel(R) Bay Trail - 1.6.0
vainfo: Supported profile and entrypoints
VAProfileMPEG2Simple : VAEntrypointVLD
VAProfileMPEG2Simple : VAEntrypointEncSlice
VAProfileMPEG2Main : VAEntrypointVLD
VAProfileMPEG2Main : VAEntrypointEncSlice
VAProfileH264ConstrainedBaseline: VAEntrypointVLD
VAProfileH264ConstrainedBaseline: VAEntrypointEncSlice
VAProfileH264Main : VAEntrypointVLD
VAProfileH264Main : VAEntrypointEncSlice
VAProfileH264High : VAEntrypointVLD
VAProfileH264High : VAEntrypointEncSlice
VAProfileH264StereoHigh : VAEntrypointVLD
VAProfileVC1Simple : VAEntrypointVLD
VAProfileVC1Main : VAEntrypointVLD
VAProfileVC1Advanced : VAEntrypointVLD
VAProfileNone : VAEntrypointVideoProc
VAProfileJPEGBaseline : VAEntrypointVLD
Is there anything I can do to tweak the video? Kodi seems to give me
better quality.
I'd probably be better off with the Brix i3 version and Intel HD 5500
video, but it has a fan and I'm not sure how much noise it generates.
