[Q] hardware acceleration support on p500 - Optimus One, P500, V General

Hello all,
Excuse my ignorance but I have a question . I am using O1 and I just learned that CyanogenMod7 Rom does not support hw which I am running the lasted version of Rom with the latest franco kernel. Now the question is , is there a way to enable hw acceleration by modifying something or installing script. If not which currently roms that available in O1 that support hw acceleration? cause I am having trouble playing videos with mp4 and avi.
btw ..... i am still a noob
Thank you for your help

[Resolved][Q]About that little thing called hardware video acceleration.

I understand due to the lack of driver source code that Hardware acceleration will not work on our tabs past 2.2(froyo). But I am currently running Calkulin+Clemsyn 1.5ghz Froyo Combo VERSION 6: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1024120 and I have tried at least 20 diff videos and diff formats using hardware codec and not one video played. I know you can use apps to play videos with software codecs but when you start going into 720p and 1080p videos the video slows way down. So is there something I'm missing? I thought the tegra 2 could handle 1080p decoding? If there is another ROM that can do HD decoding better please let me know cause video playback is what I use my tab the most for. Thanks for any help and sorry for the wall of txt lol.
Will punch the thanks button!!!
Edit: Ok after several trial and error's on trying pershoot's kernel I decided to go ahead and re-encode my videos using Freemake video converter. It works and the quality actually looks better! This program is free and it has Android presets for our tablets so that you get the best video quality at our resolution! Now I would still like to use pershoot's kernal but I can't find any froyo roms that has his/her's kernel already packed into the rom. If some one could please help me with finding one that would be super! Thanks soooo much!!!

Hmmm....well I guess I'm gonna have to choose between video acceleration or a stable ROM? :/ lol is there a custom rom with hardware acceleration? Thanks so much for the answer
I used Calkulin's ROM along with whatever current kernel Pershoot had and I never had any issues with and HD videos. You might want to give one of Pershoot's kernels a shot.

Why not re-encode to a lower resolution? The GTab can't even play 720p without resizing, which is what's killing you.
1024x600 - that's the screen size. Re-encode your HD video to be under that. It will play like butter. And be considerably smaller.

Why would they say you can play up to 1080p video, if you really cant? lol Also does it matter if its 600x1024 or 1024x600? The reason I ask is because I see it different all the time lol And one more thing, What program would you suggest to re-encode? Thanks so much for everything!
Edit: Ok so I tried pershoot's newest kernel out and I love it! I get some video acceleration back and it also fixed some sound issues I was having. The only problem is that after I install the kernel it boot's up fine but if I reboot, it gets stuck in a boot loop. If I do a factory reset it will boot back up again. but if I reboot then it gets stuck in a boot loop again. So with that said I don't think this kernel is meant for this ROM. What is the best froyo ROM that includes pershoot's kernel? Thanks for everything!!!!

[FIX] Hardware Video Decoder Lag Fix [2.3 / xRecovery]

If you watch videos encoded in high quality resolutions above 854x480, H.264 or MPEG4 and a pretty high bitrate, you might notice that video playback is laggy and not fluid with custom ROMs. This flashable zip package is supposed to fix that.
Tested
Stable - Any ROM based on stock 2.3.3 (Wolfs TW Gingerbread, Blue Sparks, Ultima GB etc.)
Stable - Most xRecovery-based CM7 ROMs (ZMOD, SpaarcMOD, FreeXperia Sony UI Achotjan etc.)
Stuck on boot - MIUI ROMs
Untested
FXP CM7 (won't work anyways since it uses CWM)
Special thanks to
zdzihu
EDIT: I've uploaded a test video to check whether video decoder lag is present or not.
http://puu.sh/5j8h/SmoothnessTest.mp4 (854x480, H.264, 5 mbit/s)
If it stutters during playback, that's an indication that the video is lagging.
This fix will not eliminate the problem but will reduce the lag by a huge margin.
I noticed this while watching videos with camera panning, they looked very juddery.
Anyone tried this? Just wondering what the original problem was.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
So, this should enable me (us) to play 720p Youtube vids?
never notist a problem and if there whas a problem, Z would have notist and came with the solution.
I think i would not flash this before making a back up.

Guys, please play the video in the OP on your phone and see whether it lags or not.

Why do you feel like discouraging people who try to offer something to the community?
On the one hand, there are tons of threads in General section
whining about people moving on from the X10 and development stalling,
and then there are post like yours... It's just not right.
Anyway, @OP, I played the test video and noticed no lags.
Could you explain what is it that you changed in the .so libraries please?
And why some people have the issue and others don't?
Thank you very much!
Okay. Downloaded the files. Tested the video. It does stutter a little.
Tested with scary gov. Running video twice... 22sec at 128mhz. And none over 500mhz! So its not decoding over cpu
P.s. Yes, also did with performance. Same problem.
Now gonna make backup. And then flash file.
Noticed the lag myself. So maybe it's missing a video codec, so it's not using hardware rendering.
I'll flash the fix and see if it works.

It depends.
On modded stock ROMs, if the dev included z's audio lag fix, this problem will surface.
On custom ROMs (CM7 for example), the issue is already there.
This zip simply replaces the libs with those from stock ROM.
PS: It was one of the reasons why I didn't use Froyo custom ROMs.

So, it will give us back the audio lag while listening to music then?

You could have also said this in first Post, right?
flashed it and saw no big difference. I'm on WB4.0.4
Maybe he already included it.
P.s. Your test video is not realy high res ^^ does 1080p work on our phone? Depens on bitrate i guess.

Technically, yes. Personally, I rarely get any audio lags while listening to music except when there's CPU heavy stuff going on like installing a large app from the Market.

But I got terrible audiolag before Z's fix when listening to music, even when this was the only thing I did (no other tasks running, screen off).

It may be because I'm running a custom kernel. Barely any audio lag.
Is it possible to play the pps.tv with h.264?

Not really. We play HQ YT vids aka 480p
Try DL-ing a 720p or even a 1080p vid and play it... see what happens. Not to mention HD divx/xvid content
P.S. regarding audio lag. I still experience it while underclocking to 128MHz. It's doesn't happen while the sleep FQ is at 245, though

[HELP] me about playing HD Videos..

I need to play HD videos on my gTab. I have Vegan Tab gingeredition 2.3.5. I installed Kensed Player or something like that, it opened .mkv video but there was a lot of lag.
Can I play HD videos on 2.3.5 without lag?

Try VEGenTAB 7.1, It is the ROM that allows me to play H.264 stream smoothly. Seems like the gingerbread ROMs are better on video playback IMO. Btw OC to 1.5 will be fine. Good luck.

thanks for advice.
can you give me link of vegentab 7.1? and give me advise about kernel, which kernel is best?
I'm not sure if this will help, but you could try Summer Player. They keep changing the name of it but the version I have that is most stable is called best video player aka summer player. Its free.
This gave me the best video playback on my G2 running gingerbread. so maybe it will work for you.
Also plays 5.1 audio correctly.
update: I installed it on the Flashback 10.0 alpha rom (Honeycomb 3.1) annnnd it starts to play video then goes back to the file selection menu.

Here you go.
http://vegantab.gojimi.com/
You can use Pershoot's (1.4) or Clemsyn's OC (1.6) kernel for gingerbread.
Pershoot's 1.4 use as is.
Clemsyn's 1.6 you should undervolt it by .50mv for all speed above 1Ghz.
Use setcpu to manage the OC.
Good luck.

I'm going crazy ! Please help about photon 4g

Stock ROM is best for the n00bs
Sent from my MB853 using XDA
Be more specific... And honestly he's right. Stock rom is fine for a whole lot of people. You seem to be in that category. And as far as the wma files, you just need a music player that supports that format. Search the market.. Mortplayer will do it as its folder based and supports a wide variety of media formats.

[Q] video lag after installing cm10 rom

I installed cm10 rom on my tab 10.1 its great and smooth but when I come to playing videos it is very bad, the youtube video lag too much on the app and the browser ... and the downloaded videos from youtube (720p) lag also on the video player ... I did a quaderant benchmark and I noticed somthing, the 2D result is too too low its about 55 and the bar is almost invisible ... so if anyone have the same problem or know the way to fix it please advise me .... THANK YOU
Oh my god !!! .... xda developeers where are you ??? Please help.
that's how the p7500 handles CM10 ICS or JB.
I'd advise to stick to stock ICS for smooth video, that's the only solution I found

I was on CM10, it crashed and died, had to flash Stock 4.0.4 and, as far as I remember, I could watch YT HD videos quite comfortably, with minor hiccups when some intensive scenes like water ripples, sea were rendered. I then flashed tryptosylls 4.1.2 AOKP and video lags a hell lot now!
Thanks .. I think I have to flash the stock rom .... i've alrady overclocked but the same problem stills.
Can someone link me to a good rom for the galaxy tab 10.1 ??
Look in the development section. You can do it!
I'm asking cause i need rom without this problem ..... I won't try every rom in the section !!!
I see the same issue in my phone as well. But this happens because of poor hardware acceleration support. U can fix this by adding a line to build.prop file. What u need to do is change or add video.acceleration.hw = 0. 0 means disable and 1 means enable. After changing this, I did not face issues while palying videos on youtube.
Anyway, very hq videos plays good with hw accelation. But still u can try ur luck.
Hit thanks if I help u.
