Hoping to find someone here to help guide me through enabling h.265 playback on my Raspberry pi.
With which video player ?
Would like to to encode/decode vlc & playback kodi
You only have to install kodi and vlc, and play
kodi has audio / no video when playing h.265 streams
v4l2-ctl --list-formats-out -d 10
returns
ioctl: VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT Type: Video Output Multiplanar [0]: 'H264' (H.264, compressed) [1]: 'MJPG' (Motion-JPEG, compressed)
I have so many changes trying to achieve this I’m dizzy in conf.txt I have
#enable vc4
#dtoverlay=vc4=kms-v3d,cma=512
#dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d,cma-384
dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d
dtoverlay=rpivid-v4l2
Is this ok?
Read post #1 here:
I’ll give it a go
thanks
So if I login from lock screen with Kodi selected would this be appropriate?
I tried this with current configuration it did not help but I’m flashing a fresh install of manjaro kde as we speak
Which branch of manjaro should i be using? Stable, Testing, or Unstable?
have you tried mpv
Have not tried mpv
h265 HW decoding will only be available via kodi which is now in the testing and unstable branch per the link I gave above. Vlc and mpv will play with software decoding if the bitrate is not too fast. You may have to install x265 for vlc to play seems like it.
Switching to testing is done by
sudo pacman-mirrors --api --set-branch testing
?
Then do a sudo pacman -Syy to update the pacman database.
I still am unable to playback h.265 in kodi unfortunately
