Hi Juanito. Folks pointed out 1001 ways to fix the problem, many of which are equally good.

I think the patch in Reply #18 is the most straight-forward. Would you like me to use that patch and submit patched wbar.tcz extensions for TCL15 x86 and x86_64?

Did we come to a conclusion on this?

TCB Talk / Re: Smooth video playback on rpi 1
« Last post by Juanito on November 04, 2024, 03:44:52 AM »
I played around with hardware acceleration on an RPi0 a while back - it was quite slow.

The vlc in the repo should use hw acceleration if available, those vlc instructions referenced above are using the old closed source omx and neon - I'm not sure neon is available on RPi0 and RPi1.

You could try ffplay:
Code: [Select]
ffplay -i /mnt/mmcblk0p2/media/video/jellyfish-3-mbps-hd-h264.mkv [I think this would use hw acceleration]
or
ffplay -codec:v h264_v4l2m2m -i /mnt/mmcblk0p2/media/video/jellyfish-3-mbps-hd-h264.mkv

Note that you may need dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d and dtoverlay=rpivid-v4l2, check that /dev/video* exist.

Is vlc compiled with hw acceleration.
So not only use framebuffer and uses the gpu and av instructions on the cpu.

And you could install omxplayer that support the gpu, to accelerate the picture and video.

Wasn't that a 700 Mhz armv6 cpu? That's equivalent to something like a Pentium 2. Would your videos play fine on a P2? (those cpus were not able to play DVDs, for reference).

Hello, we have few devices on picore 14 and vlc was used to display videos/images. The problem is that on rpi 1 it's very slow and stuttering, any suggestions ?

when I checked with 'locale' in terminal, it is LOCALE=C
Hi lizrdidi. That's most likely the main problem. I think you'll have success if you follow these steps:

1. Load the extensions you need:
   tce-load -wi getlocale
   and either  tce-load -wi unifont  or  tce-load -wi fireflysung
   (note: I use TCL15 x86_64, which does not have fireflysung in the repo. Presumably your TCL version has it)
2. When prompted by getlocale, select your desired locale (zh_CN.UTF-8)
3. When getlocale is done, make sure it created /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/optional/mylocale.tcz
4. Make sure /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/onboot.lst contains this line (if this line does not exist in the file, add it):
Code: [Select]
mylocale.tcz5. If you see getlocale.tcz in /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/onboot.lst, it's okay to remove it
6. Add G_FILENAME_ENCODING=@locale to ~/.profile
7. Your bootloader entry for TCL has a linux line and an initrd line. The to the linux line you should add lang=zh_CN.UTF-8
My bootloader's TCL entry has this linux line, for example (UUID show below was edited for privacy):
Code: [Select]
linux /boot/vmlinuz64 tce=UUID="e473b991-b711-4ad0-bf79-d6aaaaabbbbb" opt=UUID="e473b991-b711-4ad0-bf79-d6aaaaabbbbb" tz=EST+5EDT,M3.2.0/2,M11.1.0/2 syslog lang=en_US.UTF-8 user=bruno
I think after all the above is in place, things will work as you expect after you reboot.

TCE Tips & Tricks / Re: config for labwc
« Last post by GNUser on November 03, 2024, 07:04:12 AM »
Looks nice! Yes, all labwc configuration/customization happens in those four files.

I think TCL and labwc go well together. Both do only what the user tells them to, without any surprises or complications.
