make install
You can edit Makefile to enable/disable Alsa support.
The default is to autodetect as much as possible.If any issues or bugs arise, please, open an Github issue here:
https://github.com/pesintta/vdr-plugin-vaapidevice/issues
Remember to include your system report into the Github issue by
the included script:
export DISPLAY=:0.0
./generate_system_report.shFollowing is supported:
DISPLAY=:0.0
x11 display name
Only if alsa is configured:
ALSA_DEVICE=default
alsa PCM device name
ALSA_PASSTHROUGH_DEVICE=
alsa pass-though (AC-3,E-AC-3,DTS,...) device name
ALSA_MIXER=default
alsa control device name
ALSA_MIXER_CHANNEL=PCM

+n or -n ms
delay audio or delay video
vaapidevice.AudioPassthrough = 0
0 = none, 1 = PCM, 2 = MPA, 4 = AC-3, 8 = EAC-3, -X disable
for PCM/AC-3/EAC-3 the pass-through device is used and the audio
stream is passed undecoded to the output device.
z.b. 12 = AC-3+EAC-3, 13 = PCM+AC-3+EAC-3
note: MPA/DTS/TrueHD/... aren't supported yet
negative values disable passthrough

0 = none, 1 = downmix
Use ffmpeg/libav downmix of AC-3/EAC-3 audio to stereo.
