13:47 <hramrach> phh: the preinstalled media player is not capable

13:47 cnxsoft has joined #linux-rockchip

13:48 <hramrach> I can try finding manufacturer provided firmware upgrades if any

13:48 <hramrach> also how do I tell if I have 8bit or 16bit or 32bit or whatever memory?

13:49 <hramrach> often the playback problem stems from lack of memory bandwidth and I heard some tablets save on PCB traces and are capable of playing full hd but not displaying it

14:07 GriefNorth has joined #linux-rockchip

14:18 <cosm> hramrach: dmesg |grep Width

14:20 <cosm> hramrach: 720p videos work even with a 16 bit memory bus width *and* software decoding

14:20 <cosm> something else is wrong

14:25 <cosm> think I've suggested this before, but try another player

16:43 <hramrach> cosm: ok so what player do you try on Android?

16:43 <hramrach> is there like some binary which you can download, put on a SD card and then use ?

16:44 <cosm> hramrach: I just use https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mxtech.videoplayer.ad

16:45 <cosm> AFAIK android has a HAL infrastructure for video acceleration so players don't have to be aware of the platform they're running on

16:53 <hramrach> that's nice.

16:53 <hramrach> so how do you download that?

16:53 <hramrach> there is no download link

16:53 _massi_ has quit [Quit: Leaving]

16:55 <hramrach> ok, you have to go to the developer site

18:59 <hramrach> hmm, so mxplayer works. the video playback does not

19:00 <hramrach> I found I have mxplayer, fnf media player and hd video player

19:00 <hramrach> and neither can play 720p without stuttering :s

19:00 <hramrach> something an a13 tablet can do ..

19:05 <ferric> what device, hramrach?

19:09 <hramrach> http://www.linux-rockchip.info/mw/index.php?title=FNF_iFive_X2

19:10 <hramrach> also there is probably something in the video format that the player does not like

19:10 <hramrach> because a 1080p 10hi video which the a13 tablet would not be able to play at all plays *better*

19:11 <hramrach> maybe the problem is that the 10hi is decoded in software which is sluggish but flawless but the 8bit 720p is decoded in hardware which is broken

19:15 <hramrach> and since IO installed the mxplayer NEON codec and the codec architecture is shared any player should be able to decode in software now ..

19:24 <hramrach> adb does not work :s

19:26 <hramrach> so no dmesg

19:26 GriefNorth has quit [Ping timeout: 252 seconds]

19:29 <ferric> i couldn't get adb to work with my qx2 stick either

19:32 <hramrach> adb is supposed to be usb device 18d1:d001 or 18d1:d002 but I get 2207:0010

20:13 <cosm> ferric, hramrach: try this: http://stackoverflow.com/a/17763886

20:15 <cosm> that works for me

20:15 <cosm> or install a terminal emulator on the device

20:16 <cosm> hramrach: don't you have google play store?

20:22 FreezingCold has joined #linux-rockchip

20:24 <ferric> cosm: that didn't work for me, i tried many times :(

20:24 nighty^ has quit [Ping timeout: 264 seconds]

20:24 RayFlower has joined #linux-rockchip

20:24 <ferric> cosm: put the right vendor/product in adb.ini too

20:24 <cosm> do you have usb debugging enabled?

20:24 <ferric> i was on a chromebook under crouton so maybe that made a difference

20:24 <ferric> cosm: yes

20:24 <ferric> cosm: lsusb showed the device

20:24 <ferric> cosm: adb couldn't find it

20:25 <ferric> i put it in /etc/udev/ etc too

20:26 <cosm> hmm

20:28 <ferric> i should just buy a linux box to do development. :/

20:28 <ferric> or a dual-boot linux/windows box

20:28 <cosm> I don't really know how this android wizardry works

20:28 <cosm> but just permissions + the change in adb.ini were sufficient for me

20:29 <cosm> I get the same vid:pid as hramrach

20:29 <ferric> yeah, i think i just a real machine.

20:29 <ferric> not sure why hramrach's adb isn't working, though.

20:32 <cosm> I found this kernel source with Hudl patches: http://www.tescotechsupport.com/downloads/

20:33 <cosm> it seems to have some lcd drivers I haven't seen in any other trees

20:33 <cosm> maybe some other stuff too

20:34 <cosm> so if anyone feels like checking it out...

20:35 <cosm> I found it useful because it has a board file and an screen file which use SSD2828

20:36 <cosm> by the way, I found the datasheet for SSD2828QN4, the exact mipi bridge used in my tablet

20:37 <cosm> the one we found previously was for SSD2828QL9 which has a different footprint and possibly some other stuff

23:29 <hramrach> obviously it does not work because it's Android

23:30 <hramrach> the damn adb tool docs say nothing about adb.ini

23:30 <hramrach> the damn stackoverflow question says to make an adb.ini but nothing about wth you are supposed to put in it

23:31 <hramrach> so typical for anything related to android

23:41 <hramrach> and it does not work anyway

23:42 <hramrach> maybe the device is supposed to be 1902 and not 10
