Why not use Android for Kodi. It worked for me on the pine with Android Wink

BTW. fb turbo works quiet good. Compared to normal fbdev driver, fb turbo makes desktop very usable. Compilation and installation from github sources is trivial, and it works out of the box, after following instruction.

Still, I am hoping proper mali driver could be installed somehow eventually. What kernel versions does binary driver support? Any hope they can provide something for 4.0+ kernels maybe?


RE: Help with HW Acceleration - lenny.raposo-pine64.pro - 04-26-2016

they will be sending us the binaries soon and if I am not mistaken the binary should work on any kernel. ssvb at SunXI Linux is the best person to ask as he has extensive knowledge on this matter Wink

Any updates on this?

Yes and no fishmech.

Allwinner is working on something but end of May is when we will see something

but good news is I have managed to get kodi running and watching movies on the Debian side of things but in windowed mode with sd and 720p videos. It's slow using the ui but you can watch things Wink

I'm very excited and hopeful for this as well. I think a lot of people's projects are pending the Mali driver release.
