Having a working VDR, which can handle HDTV (H.264) content, has a touch of academic nature nowadays. The stations, which offer their content via DVB-S2 standard are just a few and what they send doesn’t really attract people. Continue reading ‘At the moment available HDTV channels over satellite’
A little HOWTO on how to make VDR using the new VDPAU hardware acceleration…
[UPDATE]Read here, how to install VDR on Karmic Koala with Binary Packages.[/UPDATE] Like I wrote here, the xine developer team is working on an own implementation of Nvidia’s VDPAU video display driver, which is an H.264 hardware acceleration.
I’ve downloaded (checked out revision #106) the first alpha release here:
mkdir /usr/local/src/
svn co svn://jusst.de/xine-vdpau
First of all, the new thing about it isn’t its size, but its ability to work together with on Atom CPU from Intel. That’s not usual, since there’s been only one chip-set available so far, which is design to work with on Atom CPU, and that’s Intel’s 945GM. Now the GeForce 9400M chip-set will be able to cooperate with Intel’s low power and low buget CPU, the Atom. And you’ve read right. Continue reading ‘Ion – a tiny Media PC from Nvidia’
Currently supported VDPAU GPUs
NVIDIA released on 14th of November 2008 a driver for Linux, which is capable of accelerating H.264 encoded content on hardware. What is called NVIDIA PureVideo and is available for Windows since 2006, is now also available for the UNIX world. This new driver is told to work also on Solaris and BSD. Here’s a list of currently supported NVIDIA GPUs. You won’t find the 7. and former series, as far as I understood it, they’ll never will support PureVideo.
