So would it make more sense compiling it iwth 64bit?

got it. ubuntu is using a different path for the drivers. however, X stops with a backtrace. I added spu_fbdev into the xorg device section: Section "Device" Identifier "Generic Video Card" Driver "spu_fbdev" Option "UseFBDev" "true" EndSection start...

Hi unsolo,

I got the driver compiled but if I'm adding it as spu_fbdev_drv into the xorg.conf X can't start.
Could you post me your device section of your xorg.conf?
Thanks.

@unsolo: yes, the vo is working and upscaling to 1080p. The only thing to mention is that the mplayer output is being shown directly below the picture but I can suppress this by redirecting the output to /dev/null. Would you mind if I am spreading an Ubuntu Howto (including some .debs) to a wider co...

Yep,
I did install the ubuntu spu packages and mplayer plays my videos.
The only remaining issue is that I can't stop mplayer. The whole framebuffer gets messed up when hitting ESC and I have to change the runlevel.

@unsolo: I reinstalled my system with the latest ubuntu release and trying to compile the spu-medialib with make no-spu. That worked a few days ago on my gentoo installation; now I'm getting the error: /usr/bin/ld: powerpc:common64 architecture of input file `../spu/cesof/spu_yuv2argb_scaler_csf.o' ...

One step further: Used the wrong mount point. Now I have: none on /spu type spufs (rw,gid=spu) When starting the video now I get the following: [vo_ps3] config: Set vo_screen(width/heigh) to 0x0, forced direct rendering, & double buffering [vo_ps3] config: src_buf_siz=276480, src_stride[]={640,3...

ok, I was too fast. Changing the ps3videomode to v 3 showed the right picture. But all the time I forgot to enable the -vo ps3 ;) That means even with a mounted spufs I get: AVI file format detected. [aviheader] Video stream found, -vid 0 [aviheader] Audio stream found, -aid 1 VIDEO: [XVID] 640x288 ...

Ah,

got it working (nearly) by modprobing spufs and then manually mounting
mount -t spufs none /spufs
after creating /spufs.
when playing a movie now my framebuffer is splitted in two parts.
In the upper half the video is shown 3 times.
Any ideas?

having none /spu spufs gid=spu 0 0 in my /etc/fstab I am getting a mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on none, missing codepage or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so is there a module I have to load? I searched through the forum but couldn...

Hi guys, thanks for the ps3 vo module. I just the installation guide and the compilation did work without any issues. However, when trying to play whatever format Mplayer crashes with the following message: AVI file format detected. [aviheader] Video stream found, -vid 0 [aviheader] Audio stream fou...

take a look into this dicsussion: http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/270856 Upgraded this morning (fairly recent svn backend). A few initial observations:- - PS3 seems to lose its connection to the mythtv server if you stop browsing recordings etc and then go back in. Need to reboot ...

regarding MythTv I've found the following statement: UPnP-clients server/hardware that are not (yet) compatible with MythTV: . . Sony PS3 - Firmware 1.80 added the ability to stream music, pictures and video from DLNA-compatible devices. At this point, it does not detect MythTV (v 0.20) as a streami...

no, it doesn't:( but for Windows you can try tversity: http://tversity.com/home. I'd be more than happy if mythtv could transcode on the fly or even better if Sony adds some of the important codecs to the PS3. Update: Ups, I was a little bit to fast: http://mythstreamtv.sourceforge.net/ ... but it i...

I'm also using Gentoo only ebuilds. So far I only tried livetv and this is using ffmpeg afaik. Mplayer itself is running fine but is not scaling. Will try to get directfb running.

My PS3 now uses gdm to auto-login and fire up MythTV which, after some fiddling with mplayer settings, works quite nicely. Displaying 1080i video seems to take around 50% cpu. adavidm Adavidm, how did you configure your mplayer for Mythtv? I just installed it using the defaults (only the frontend) ...
