OK.. I know that the dual-scan LCD and slow K6-2 make this somewhat of a lost cause... but :
Has anyone got video playback working on the IA-1, preferably with midori linux ?
I tried running video in a remote x-window but the speed was unusably slow. I tried realplayer 8 but it was poor at full size and the sound was bad. I compiled and static linked mplayer and have tolerable playback in fullscreen vesa-console mode if the codec can handle frame dropping. X11 playback is similar but won't go fullscreen. Xv and DGA are not supported by the X-server. Frame buffer works in X11 but won't go fullscreen and messes up the display. In console mode, the vesa support works better than framebuffer.
I hacked an existing xvidix driver for cyberblade/I1 to get acceleration under X11 but the image is scattered and broken all over the screen. Must be some significant differences between the cyberblade/I1 and the IA-1's cyberblade/I7d.
Has anyone tried to get xvidix working on the cyberblade/I7d chip?
I got the static linked mplayer to less than 3MB (less that 1.5MB compressed) -- it works on most mpeg and many avi videos. Have'nt got the win32, qt, or realplayer codecs working yet. I'll post the static linked mplayer somewhere if anyone is interested.
happy new year!
