 I'll make it a 5 ms limit then, to allow default kernels to work.
 Valid HZ options are 100, 250, 300 and 1000, unless overridden by an
 arch-specific Kconfig file. (AFAICS, only mips does this, offering 48, 100,
 128, 250, 256, 1000 and 1024.)
 
 Not that I really know much at all about this, but how would this change 
 behave with NOHZ kernels?

Apparently resolution is reported as 1 ns regardless of HZ when NO_HZ is 
used:

$ ./hz
cTimeMs: using monotonic clock (resolution is 1 ns)
$ zcat /proc/config.gz | grep _HZ=
CONFIG_NO_HZ=y
CONFIG_HZ=100

[vdr] HD suisse;SRG SSR idee suisse (H.264 under xine)

2007-12-03 Thread Gregoire Favre
Hello,

my country now as an HD channel :
HD suisse;SRG SSR idee 
suisse:12399:hC34:S13.0E:27500:10180+180:0;131=deu,132=fra,133=ita,134=eng:0:0:990:318:8500:0

It's 720p with AC3 for the four audio. I have a quiete strong CPU but
it's barely enough to decode this as vdr/xine seems to only take one
core of it, even if I have set 2/4 for the processing.ffmpeg thread count.

(By the way, should I better set it to 2 as I have only two cores or to
??? )

Anyone know how to use both cores for this channel (like it's done for
BBC 
HD;BSkyB:10847:vC56:S28.2E:22000:12318+2318:2320=NAR;2319=eng:2321:0:6940:0:0:0
?

Thank you very much,

Don't think that there will be much gain by setting it any higher than 2.

 ?

The problem is that HD suisse codes each frame with only a single slice
but FFmpegs multithreaded decoding needs multiple slices per picture.

There are thoughts to add picture based multithreading in addition to
the currently existing slice based multithreading.

Bye.

Oh I see, I would really like this :-)

I'll happily test any patch...

[vdr] softdevice and pass through - don't work

2007-12-03 Thread Sebastian Dellit
Hello VDR readers,

I try to use pass through with softdevice.

When I use the following options I get always the same error after
start a 5.1 file:

# ac3play: sound open: no such file or directory.

I start the vdr with:

-Psoftdevice -vo dummy: -ao 
alsa:ac3=iec958:AES0=0x02,AES1=0x82,AES2=0x00,AES3=0x2#

or with the options in the setup.conf:

softdevice.AC3Mode = 1
softdevice.AlsaAC3Device = iec958:AES0=0x02,AES1=0x82,AES2=0x00,AES3=0x2
softdevice.AlsaDevice = default

When I run a 5.1 file with ac3dec all
works fine.

What must I do to get the pass through?
