It has been some days I'm using this custom image. The Xserver has DRI2 using glamor and wayland, so it is able to draw window and videos with nice performance but it could be better from my point of view. I did not post tutorial yet because there is one drawback by building this custom image : I don't have the wifi and bluetooth running anymore... I cannot make it working again by compiling it or copying the previous module ![]() VLC, Kodi etc are running with hardware acceleration but youtube is not. The videos are almost played smoothly but they can be extremely choppy when a lot of details are moving. I suspect there is still an issue with the 2D acceleration. It will probably better when they implement their RGA in the system (https://github.com/rockchip-linux/rk-rootfs-build) It is not that difficult to build this custom system and does not require any kernel building knowledge as the kernel configuration is already provided on the repo with "miniarm" configuration. Will try to find some time eventually to write something about the steps.

Hello, For chromium, as I know the official image only enable 2D acceleration but did not enable hw video decoding... could you show how to enable hw video decoding in chromium? thanks a lot.

I did about:gpu and not good. Could you write the steps how to do this? (03-03-2017, 09:51 PM)gooze74 Wrote: Finally working !! It was really worth it guys !! I have hardware video decoding with 2D acceleration yeehhaaa !! I got a kernel panic. Don't try this one. I don't have a dev mmcblk0p7. It only goes to mmcblk0p2 ![]()

To flash it you will need to unmount it with this commands: (main idea: you can't repair/configure an engine while it is running, therefore you need to turn it off) umount /dev/mmcblk0p1 (mmcblk0 is most likely your sdcard, can be different though) umount /dev/mmcblk0p2 (mmcblk0p1 is partition1, p2 is partition2 umount both) important: write umount NOT unmount (happenend to me) Next is the flashing: sudo dd bs=32M if=yourTinkerOS.img of=/dev/mmcblk0 && sync Now you will have to wait for a while. Depending on the size of the img file it can be seconds up to 9 minutes(16GB). No there is no status bar on default, be patient. If it is done it looks like this: 50 + 1 records in 50 + 1 records out 1702690816 bytes (1,7GB) copied, 96465s 17,7 MB/s MOST IMPORTANT: if you are not careful you can ruin your computer Software with this command. dd is nicknamed disc destroyer for a reason!! also important: you have to open the terminal inside the folder in which the img is. Otherwise you need to specify the whole path to it like: if=/home/yourFolder/yourTinkerOS.img If you are successfull you should use a tool like gparted to resize the SD Card to its full size. Otherwise your memory device has the size of the image that you have burned to it. Example: if you have a 16 GB sd card and you flash it with a 1 GB .img File the size of the sd card will be 1GB if you do not resize it. Everytime you want to store new files on it, it may soon error like "not enough space left", which is obviously wrong. bs=32M means blocksize 32MB which defines how fast it will be written(higher blocksize higher speed). I didn't do experiments with this, I personally stick to 32M. If I did forget something important, just comment.
