05:39 ptl what would be a good book for learning ARM with Linux?
12:25 dbsx tomlohave, are you there
18:06 hybridvs hi
18:06 Morta hi hybridvs
18:07 Morta You have ever played a BD Remux on geexbox ?
18:07 hybridvs third go at compiling the openbricks source
18:07 hybridvs don't know what does that even mean ;)
18:07 Morta you are passioned
18:07 hybridvs stubborn is a more apt description
18:08 Morta So it is the best quality of a Blu Ray Disk Rip
18:08 hybridvs i'll have my rails app working on cubox , no matter the cost xD
18:08 Morta :D
18:09 hybridvs the best quality i tryed i think was an episode of Dexter 1080 full HD. No rips attempted yet
18:10 Morta ah ok
18:10 Morta So i think BD Remux are too big for the cubox
18:11 hybridvs I don't think so.. the hardware specifications looks good enougth to handle it. Not so sure about the software part
18:12 Morta BD Remux has up to 23 MB/s data transfer
18:13 hybridvs seeing the hdmi output data rate , that does not seem that mucho
18:13 hybridvs much
18:15 hybridvs if the eSata interface can handle it , i'm sure the video chip is able to process and render it with little sweat
18:17 Morta i try only over nfs
18:17 hybridvs bad boy
18:17 hybridvs local network or remote?
18:17 Morta local network
18:18 Morta 1 gbit nas to cubox
18:18 hybridvs again , the hardware is capable to deliver , the software , i can be sure
18:18 hybridvs cant
18:18 Morta ok
18:19 Morta but i think xbmc has no problem to play that on quadcore
18:19 hybridvs i do look my tv shows and movies from an old usb memory stick with 8Gb and works fine
18:20 Morta yes all tv shows and normal 1080p are no problem
18:21 hybridvs have you measured the througthput of your cubox connection to the nas ?
18:21 hybridvs not the capacity , but a real test
18:21 Morta nope how i do that?
18:22 Morta i only look the transfer data rate on the web interface of the nas
18:22 Morta and there are a big difference between normal fullhd and remux fullhd
18:23 hybridvs well , there are tools but now i don't know of one readibly accesible for cubox , ...just transfer a file of a known size form one side to the other an check the time , divide sze by seconds and there you are
18:23 Morta so i try from nas to laptop and there is no problem
18:24 hybridvs try diferent files from diferent sizes and type of content and you can plot a chart , take weigthed measures , and you get an idea of how good or bad your conection is from the cubox side of things
18:25 hybridvs repeat the same test from the laptop side to get a baseline to compare
18:26 Morta ok
18:26 Morta i will do this
18:26 Morta first i try over esata
18:27 hybridvs post your results on the forum along with the distribution , and version , let's do a kind of map
18:27 hybridvs i don't have esata , but i can test network and usb
18:27 Morta so there should be no problem, if there already a problem isn't make sens to try over network(nfs)
18:28 hybridvs unless you have a problem elsewhere
18:28 Morta i don't no why. i installed directly over cubox installer
18:29 Morta geexbox the newst issue
18:29 hybridvs i'm using the latest geexbox devel branch and works like charm
18:30 hybridvs but i'm willing to go over the edge just to get that little extra bit ;)
18:30 Morta Linux geexbox 3.5.3 #1 PREEMPT Wed Dec 5 20:01:04 CET 2012 armv7l GNU/Linux
18:30 Morta so i have to cook. i'm hungry. i'll be back later
18:30 hybridvs bon appetit
18:31 hybridvs que aproveche (in spanish)
18:32 Morta you speak french ?
18:33 hybridvs no , just some convenience phrases
18:33 hybridvs but i do speak catalan that has many similarities
18:33 Morta ah ok... i'm from switzerland so i speak french german and little bit english
