Our developers are busy with the Release Candidate so probably quite soon. 
Don’t know anything regarding ‘a’ DVD problem.


Mijn schotel is een T90 met 10 LNB's. Daarnaast voor de fun nog een draaibaar systeem met een Triax TD 78.

Dreamboxen heb ik niet meer echt actief. Verder heb ik ook nog een een VU+ duo2 met 500Gb harddisk + een VU+ Uno, Zero, Solo 4K, Ultimo 4K, Zero 4K, Uno 4Kse. + ook nog een Xtrend ET7x00. Daarnaast heb ik ook nog diverse andere modellen w.o. een Formuler F4, ET8500, ET7500, Mut@nt 2400HD, Xsarius Fusion HD se en verder nog wel het e.e.a. waarmee op verzoek vanalles wordt getest. Iemand moet het tenslotte doen. ;) :)
Los van de eerder genoemde modellen heb ik nog wel een rits aan testsamples als Mut@nt 2400HD, HD60, GB UE4K, GB Trio4K, Maxitec Multibox combo en Twin, Octagon sf8008, sf8008 mini en last but nog least enkele modellen van het Grieks Duitse Edision.

Voor centrale opslag van media gebruik ik een Qnap 219P 
met tweemaal 2 Tb harddisks + een Synology DS414 met 12 Tb Totale opslag.

The DVD 'problem' is lack of driver support. Nothing we can do to fix.

 

And afaik it hasn't been adressed, it is a generic HiSil issue (it doesn't work on any box with a SoC made by HiSilicon).


Currently in use: VU+ Duo 4K (2xFBC S2), VU+ Solo 4K (1xFBC S2), uClan Usytm 4K Ultimate (S2+T2), Octagon SF8008 (S2+T2), Zgemma H9.2H (S2+T2)

Due to my bad health, I will not be very active at times and may be slow to respond. I will not read the forum or PM on a regular basis.

I have reported the DVD playback problem to the driver developer, but no feedback until now.

What exactly is the problem?

At the risk of getting rants again ...
But it should be solved via ffmpeg and the construction.
I can only compare this because of the similarity of the ServiceHisilicon and the construction of the sh4 boxes.
Everything works with the DVD player on sh4.

Afaik the drivers use special ffmpeg version with hw acceleration. So nothing we can fix.

I'm not an expert and I don't know the cause well.
I know that normally with a box mips if you launch a dvd (unpacked iso that is on a hard disk or usb or other) the menu is displayed to choose audio track, chapters, special contents etc.
On new boxes this does not happen, it crashes and you have to restart.
To watch a DVD you must:
1) use bmediacenter;
2) change with the blue button that the DVDs must work them as videos;
3) watch one vob file at a time.

At the moment it is the only way I have found to watch DVDs with the new 4K boxes (amiko viper combo 4k, gigablue trio4k, octagon sf8008 4k)

If it were a codec problem I couldn't even look at them individually.

The problem in my opinion lies in the processing of the video_ts.ifo files

As mentioned several times, it is not a codec problem. DVD's uses old and very established codecs.

 

If I enable libdvd debugging, I get:

libdreamdvd: soft ac3 decoding is not available, liba52.so.0 not found !
libdvdnav: Using dvdnav version 5.0.4
libdvdread: Couldn't find device name.
libdvdnav: Can't read name block. Probably not a DVD-ROM device.
libdvdnav: vm: dvd_read_name failed
libdvdnav: DVD disk reports itself with Region mask 0x00000000. Regions: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
LIBDVD: 000.033: /proc/stb/pcr/pcr_stc_offset: No such file or directory
LIBDVD: 000.033: /proc/stb/vmpeg/0/sync_offset: No such file or directory

which suggests there are some compatibility issues that need adressing. libdvdread and libdvdnav are from the videolan project.

crucial lines are missing ...
Who would have to test locally if this could lead to a solution.
On the other hand, gst, it could also be activated via ServiceHisilicon.

		extensions.push_back("iso");
		extensions.push_back("ifo");

Afaik the DVD isn't played by ServiceHisilicon, it is played by servicedvd in E2, with the help of libdreamdvd and the VideoLAN libraries.

mhh...

 

but they also need the parameters provided by the ffmpeg-built engine and the service hisilicon.
If the info regarding ifo and how to deal with it is missing, then it won't work.

But it's just my logic.
Hold an idea

Why, a DVD is standard MPEG, it is pumped directly into the SoC, there is no external player involved?

 

It more looks like something isn't compatible between HiSil boxes and libdreamdvd, so the environment setup fails, which in turn causes libdvdread and libdvdnav to fail.

You will be right ...

and take a look at the sh4.patch regarding the above error message.
It is quite possible that he can help there too, so restructured for Hisi (arm).

https://code.videola...olan/libdvdread

https://code.videola...eolan/libdvdnav

 

currently seems to be the most current variant.
XBMC Branch is also equipped with develop branch.
It would be worth trying.
If someone wants to try it with such a box and can build it himself.

In develop we build both with AUTOREV, which means using the master HEAD. So we are already testing with the latest version, it doesn't solve anything.

 

I am more inclined to believe that HiSil, like the sh4 platform, requires patching of libdreamdvd, given the error messages I see when I run it in debug mode.
