How to use a Sigma Designs Hollywood Plus and/or a Creative DXR3 by David Holm
|
|
==============================================================================
|
|
|
|
Thanks goes out to Daniel Bell for the donation of a brand new 20GB IBM
|
|
harddisk.
|
|
|
|
1. Requirements
|
|
|
|
* First of all you will need the DXR3/H+ drivers properly installed.
|
|
Version 0.12.0 or later. You can find it at
|
|
http://dxr3.sourceforge.net/
|
|
(you only need to run "make install devices" in em8300-x.y.z/modules
|
|
not in the root dir)
|
|
|
|
* Run <mplayerdir>/configure and make sure that DXR3/H+ support = yes
|
|
if you want to play files other than mpeg libmp1e should be = yes as well
|
|
|
|
From here on compilation (of at least my code ;) should go without any
|
|
problems.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Usage
|
|
-vo dxr3:<noprebuf>:<codec>:<device>Where noprebuf specifies to turn off
|
|
prebuffering. This is done automatically
|
|
on athlons. If playback is out of sync
|
|
try disabling prebuffering. If noprebuf
|
|
is left out prebuffering is enabled
|
|
(except on athlons).
|
|
|
|
<codec> = fame/avcodec, avcodec produces
|
|
better quality output, but fame is
|
|
faster for those of you with slow
|
|
machines. The default is to use
|
|
libavcodec. Note that you need
|
|
libavcodec properly installed (read
|
|
DOCS/codecs.html)
|
|
|
|
<device> = device number to use in case
|
|
you have more than one em8300 card
|
|
|
|
Any of these options may be left out,
|
|
but they must be specified in this order
|
|
i.e. dxr3:fame works, dxr3:1 works but
|
|
dxr3:1:avcodec will not.
|
|
These new features were added by XorA,
|
|
he usually hangs out in #dxr3 on
|
|
irc.openprojects.net, let him know
|
|
you like it...
|
|
-ao oss:/dev/em8300_ma-X For audio output, where X is the device
|
|
number (0 if one card)
|
|
-ac hwac3 For digital audio output instead of
|
|
analog
|
|
-vc mpegpes For hardware accelerated mpeg playback
|
|
-aop list=resample:fout=48000 If samplerate is below 44100Hz
|
|
This does not work with digital audio
|
|
output (-ac hwac3)
|
|
|
|
MPEG-1, MPEG-2, VCD and DVD Notes
|
|
There are some important notes to take into account here for optimum playback.
|
|
MPlayer currently does not autodetect that the dxr3 can playback mpegs. So for
|
|
mpeg files, dvd's and vcd's you have to add -vc mpegpes to tell mplayer that
|
|
you are using a hardware accelerator. Otherwise mplayer will decode the movie
|
|
in software, which is much slower.
|
|
Note that you cannot use -vc mpegpes with movies that aren't mpeg 1 or 2 or
|
|
you will get an error message saying "Can't find codec for video format...".
