13:14 | xtrover | anyone here? |
13:15 | xtrover | Anyone around who is familiar with CSI communication on the hummingboard pro? |
13:49 | Halofreak1990 | Not me. I'm trying to wrap my head around the basic workings of my HummingBoard i2eX as documentation is nearly non-existant |
13:50 | Halofreak1990 | It surprises me there aren't more hobbyist OS developers targeting this device, especially compared to the Raspberry Pi |
13:53 | Zaitzev | word of mouth, etc |
13:55 | vpeter | Halofreak1990: You already mentioned documentation. This is one reason. And the community is much, much bigger. |
14:12 | Halofreak1990 | yeah. Too bad for the HummingBoard that most people are content just running a Linux or Android flavor on it and not hacking something custom onto it, which would've spawned some usable documentation |

14:22 | Halofreak1990 | Currently, I'd like to be able to manipulate the Activity LED, so I can toggle it as my code runs through various stages |
14:23 | Halofreak1990 | but from the wiring diagram and the Freescale SoC docs I can only make out that the Activity LED is connected to the SATA controller and not some GPIO pin or somthing similar |
14:23 | Halofreak1990 | but there's nothing conclusive on that |
14:25 | vpeter | Halofreak1990: which led is that exactly? |
14:33 | thom_ | Hello, i installed Debian Jessie from Igor Pe?ovnik |

23:29 | frewtbag | Hey guys, |
23:29 | frewtbag | finally just got my cubox (a month and a half after ordering) and I've got some questions |
23:29 | frewtbag | if anyone's around |
23:30 | frewtbag | I had it shipped with openelec but at 1080p the UI is a bit laggy |
23:30 | frewtbag | is there a way to clock up the CPU? |
23:37 | frewtbag | ..anyone? |
23:37 | fritsch | frewtbag: it's currently completely reworked |
23:37 | fritsch | frewtbag: the complete hw acceleration |
23:37 | fritsch | but if menu speed is your only issue - keep what you have |
23:37 | frewtbag | Even at 720p 60Hz, my framerate doesn't go past 51. the last time I was in the chatroom someone told me that their UI was a perfect 60fps |
23:37 | frewtbag | if I bump it up to 1920x1080, it drops to 27 fps |
23:38 | fritsch | how do you measure those fps? |
23:38 | fritsch | you look in the system info? |
23:38 | fritsch | that won't render in full speed cause dirty region will optimize that |
23:38 | frewtbag | Well, at first I wasn't, but I noticed that the transitions are much choppier than on my Zotac (ION graphics) |
23:38 | frewtbag | ah |
23:38 | frewtbag | that's where I started to look |
23:38 | fritsch | yeah - don't expect too much |
23:39 | fritsch | was your zotac ion-2 based? |
23:39 | frewtbag | first gen ION |
23:39 | fritsch | yeah, that it can beat |
23:39 | fritsch | :p |
23:39 | fritsch | https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/55728161/OpenELEC-imx6.arm-devel-20150219105821-r20292-gd7ca9a0.tar |
23:39 | fritsch | here ^^ |
23:39 | fritsch | if you have issues with 1080p50 movies |
23:39 | fritsch | or cannot watch live tv 1080i50 |
23:40 | frewtbag | I guess I'm a little bummed out because it took me about 58 days to get it, when it arrived the outer cage was kind of badly scuffed up (wasn't even plastic wrapped), and now I'm finding that it's not nearly as smooth as I was told it would be. |
23:40 | fritsch | and one final hint: the codecs screen (o) is no benchmark |
23:40 | fritsch | who told that? |
23:40 | frewtbag | a few people in here, like way back in the start of January |
23:41 | frewtbag | I specifically asked about the framerate of the UI and I was told it was super smooth, even at 1080 |
23:41 | frewtbag | Even the scrolling RSS ticker at the bottom on 720 is stuttering a bit. |
23:42 | frewtbag | I don't know. I'm just getting the impression that I really shouldn't have spent money on this :/ |
23:42 | frewtbag | It seems to be a step down from my Zotac except for size |
23:43 | fritsch | test the build I gave you |
23:43 | fritsch | (i am not in any way related to the marketing / selling team), but found it nice to hack on that box |
23:43 | frewtbag | Do you think it might be smoother? |
23:43 | fritsch | i exactly know what it can't do - but want to ease your pain |
23:43 | fritsch | yes |
23:44 | fritsch | especially video playback is heavily improved |
23:45 | frewtbag | ahYe |
23:45 | frewtbag | Yeah |
23:45 | frewtbag | I'll give it a shot. |
23:45 | frewtbag | Thank you. |
23:46 | frewtbag | What's the install process for these? For my Zotac I just used the OpenELEC tool to make a bootable USB drive |
23:47 | fritsch | just put the .tar |
23:47 | fritsch | into the update folder |
23:47 | fritsch | via samba share |
23:47 | fritsch | or scp it to /storage/.update/ |
23:47 | frewtbag | Ah |
23:48 | frewtbag | Seems pretty straight forward |
