it will not work on RPi, at least while X11 will not have hardware accelerated drivers there...
@RSATom although WebChimera.js VLC
won't work because of the lack of hardware acceleration, I think WebChimera.js GStreamer might, as stated on this wiki page:
gstreamer-1.0 features gst-omx, a module which can do hardware-accelerated video decoding on the Raspberry Pi.
@creativefull but the api for WebChimera.js GStreamer
is too different from WebChimera.js VLC
, so wcjs-player
won't work with it..
@creativefull If you want to test this theory though, you'd need to enable hardware acceleration in NW.js
too (as rendering the video uses WebGL), from what I've read here: https://github.com/nwjs/nw.js/issues/1151#issuecomment-120854731
It seems that people did manage to get hardware acceleration working in NW.js
on the RPI before.
I think there are more reasons use QML based players on RPi. I'm working on porting https://github.com/RSATom/WebChimera-desktop to RPi right now.
@RSATom but isn't it still based on VLC, I thought VLC had an issue with hardware acceleration on RPI..
it's only the part of the problem, second part - missing hardware acceleration of frames display on RPi. It could not be fixed only by using GStreamer (which could use hardware decoder) - it require hardware accelerated renderer too.
meaning i must be install GStreamer first, ?
yes my RPI did'nt have hardware acceleration ,. just software only ,.
meaning i must be install GStreamer first, ?
no, we mean you have no any easy way to get it working.
do yo have any solution ?
No, I don't. And please read this: https://github.com/RSATom/WebChimera.js/wiki/Limitations-%28Read-this-for-Android-|-Raspberry-Pi-|-performance-issues%29
Ok thnks :)
hi jaruba,. I get an error when I run in raspberry 3. or maybe I need a WebGL?
