sudo archlinux-java set java-10-openjdk

should work, then install again, it will continue from where it failed

Compiletime about three hours
works fine !
option -noconfirm stopps removal of kodi-matrix-mpp-git
Thanks for your help
Uli

yeah it take some time because it build every binary addon,
but the next update will be 15mins max. only the first build takes time.

by the way, i found some bugs in agr tool. so you need to update the tool with

python -m pip install https://github.com/hbiyik/agr/archive/master.zip --break-system-packages --force-reinstall

when updated, the tool can self update itself with below command, so you dont need to issue above command anymore once updated.

agr update --agr

Uli_Beling · February 5, 2024, 6:22pm

Just a question,
will there an update for a newer version of repo 7ji
chromium-mpp-git be.
Regards
Uli

boogiepop · February 5, 2024, 7:05pm

we are discussing here:

both him and myself are a little bit tired by maintaining those, from my pov, maintaining the binary distribution is also another pain, but we will see.

boogiepop · February 6, 2024, 10:18am

UPDATE:

kodi-nexus-mpp-git and and kodi-binary-addons-git packages are now completely separated.

Now first time building of kodi takes 45mins, update build takes about 5 minutes
first time building of kodi-binary-addons-git takes 2.5 hours, update build takes around 10 mins.
@Uli_Beling i think you are the only one, if you have previous built kodi, you need uninstall pacman -R kodi-nexus-mpp-git and reinstall with kodi-nexus-mpp-git to get updates, because the package names are changed a bit.

removed moonlight-qt-git package since the fix for ffmpeg-rockchipis merged to upstream moonlight. You can use AUR to install moonlight-qt-git package instead of agr

to update agr:

agr update --agr

to update the system

agr update

Mangled · February 8, 2024, 2:46am

It also won’t let me build kodi from AGR even after clearing all my previous builds. I will try the Java fix you mentioned earlier.

::Java fix worked and kodi installed successfully

boogiepop · February 8, 2024, 10:18am

good, i am working on an update to agr which will provide at least 5x speed improvement. currently it is meant to just work, now i need to make it faster

Uli_Beling · February 11, 2024, 12:57pm

Does anyone of you guys know a working image with kernel 6.x and hdmi output ?
Radxa , Armbian , Bredos , ARCH ?

Is there a fix for Firefox? Its the only browser I noticed that freezes/crashes. Librewolf is the alternative I use for now

boogiepop · February 11, 2024, 9:35pm

With the new ffmpeg-rockchip support for firefox is dropped.
Also firefox is getting really slow lately so i kinda lost my appetite to make it work.

But

There is below hack i managed to work out only for h264, but this is ugly and not covering all formats, and ff is slow.

I might work on it i also have some other ideas but, currently you can just use chromium-mpp

meadows · February 12, 2024, 3:34pm

There seems to be some issue with hardware decoding not working with ffmpeg-rockchip when playing videos from youtube using mpv+yt-dlp. Local files do work and mpv+yt-dlp hardware decoding works with ffmpeg-mpp.

boogiepop · February 12, 2024, 4:32pm

Did you check the wiki? You need to do flag mpv to use rkmpp qith new ffmpeg-rockchip. It should be few posts above.

nyanmisaka · February 12, 2024, 4:45pm

Maybe consider adding a section on how to modify mpv.conf. Many users have become accustomed to the fact that rkmpp has higher priority than software decoder, but they don’t know that this is actually a hack.

boogiepop · February 12, 2024, 5:08pm

i was just expecting someone from the community to come up with mpv.conf

meadows · February 12, 2024, 5:52pm

Yes, I have put the hwdec=rkmpp etc. flags to mpv.conf. The decoding just fails if trying to play youtube videos. And when using ffmpeg-mpp I have actually deprioritized the hardware codecs from ffmpeg-mpp source because they were giving problems with firefox, and using vd=h264_rkmpp_decoder… parameter to force their use with mpv, as for some reason using hwdec=rkmpp then with ffmpeg-mpp causes mpv to freeze at the end of the video, requiring killing it.

Could you send the whole command of mpv so that i can try to reproduce?

[ffmpeg/video] h264_rkmpp: Format nv12 chosen by get_format().

This looks suspicous, should have been drm prime

meadows · February 12, 2024, 7:11pm

It seems that the problem only appears with live streams (and maybe recently ended live streams before the standard formats become available).

For example:

mpv --config=no --hwdec=rkmpp --vd-lavc-o=afbc=on --vf=scale_rkrga=force_yuv=8bit --ytdl-format=95/94 “https://youtu.be/BJ3Yv572V1A”

boogiepop · February 12, 2024, 8:18pm

thanks for the feedback, reproduced the error, i think this might be related to recent update of mpp, let me work on it if there is an easy fix.

https://github.com/rockchip-linux/mpp/commit/5cb29df8d369e0d0b42797a7132d365820fd4046 is the culprit.
