@vpeter:
I am still comparing the performance of OE 5.0.2 on my Pi/Pi2 (Raspberry Pi) and on the Matrix. What I found is a menu point in the Pi which limits the update of the overlays during video playback (/settings/video/acceleration/limit GUI updates when playing video). The value is 10 fps for the Pi. If I have a look to the cpu usage during video playback ("O"), the value W_fps (lowest line) is indeed always <10 fps on the Pis and the video reproduction is excellent. The Matrix does not have this menu point and I can see a much more bigger value between 25 and 41 fps, depending on the video. This means that the fps of the overlay update is proportional to the fps of the video! So I would like to ask if this could be the reason for the bad performance of the Matrix on video playback. Your kind answer would be appreciated.
BTW: I have evaluated your last Gotham build from 22.12.2014 again and I'm really wondering that all reproduction issues are gone with that version.

vpeter,
Is this version of openelec compatible with hardware v2.3 ???

Thanks

I don't know - I have only v1.3 and v2.1 revisions. Why don't you try and let us know - I would do the same if had this board

Why people asking me questions about hw I don't have.... like new revisions, pcie cards, sata disks, ...

I just try the 5.0.0 and... it does not work...

The only version i manage to install is
- TBS-MatrixTV-V1.0.1.1-V21

have tryed those from this thread :
- OpenELEC-imx6.arm-4.95.3
- OpenELEC-imx6.arm-4.97.1
- OpenELEC-imx6.arm-5.0.0
but none of the could be installed, they are stopped after partitionning message

and here is he message on mfgtool.log, at the end (5.0.0)

If you have serial console attach it and post log from there.

what does it means ???

MikeDotBe wrote:what does it means

On serial console you see what is executed. Seems you don't have it so just ignore this part.

Seems MfgTool starts to write stuff to eMMC but something is wrong. From what I can get from Google try running MfgTool2-reinstall.bat as Administrator. Maybe this time will work.

run as administrar on the batch file give an error message saying "mfgtools2.exe not found"... i assume this has something to do with the "location" of the CMD.exenot in the same place as mfgtools2.exe

have tryied different solutions, like shorter path (c:/temp/openelec5), "solve problem" by setting the program mfgtool2.exe under "runas" rights, copying cmd.exe to mfgtools directory... none of thoose are working...

maybe if you explain me how to get that serial console... i'll may be of greater help

found this in the log
DLL version: 2.2.3
Friday, February 20, 2015 14:30:22 Start new logging
ModuleID[2] LevelID[1]: Error: Can't find the specified list(SabreSD-eMMC-use-batch-file) in the xml file
ModuleID[2] LevelID[1]: Parse ucl script failed, error code: 12

does it help?

MikeDotBe wrote:does it help?

No. This just means you need to execute .bat file and not mfgtool2.exe directly.
