kraqh3d you are funny. Tyson777 is spammer I think. He speaks just to advertise 'postcards'.

LOL I didn't even noticed that!

Thanks a lot, jarods git compiles and seems to work well with those patches applied - only the previously mentioned error message appears on my ATV 1:

Code:

Does the unhandled command message mean anything? or is it safe to ignore it?

I doubled checked the logs in my setup and I dont have any "unhandled command" message. Which firmware are you using, i.e. Jarod's git or some other?

i didn't do anything about the firmware, so i guess, yes, Jarod's git. With 8 dma rings I still get the insufficient memory for RX error for 1080p (h.264 L4.1) material btw, is there anything else i could try? 720p seems to work fine.

Thats extremely weird, I dont see any reason why you should see those errors unless there is some mismatch between the library version and the kernel driver version or the firmware.

Do you mean the "unhandled command" or the "insufficient memory for rx" errors? I don't think there's a mismatch anywhere, but to be sure i'll post the commands i use to compile and install the library and the driver:

Code:

git clone git://linuxtv.org/jarod/crystalhd.git
cd crystalhd
wget https://raw.github.com/bharath23/xbmc-atv-packaging/master/crystalhd/debian/patches/dma-ring.patch
patch -p1 < dma-ring.patch
wget https://raw.github.com/bharath23/xbmc-atv-packaging/master/crystalhd/debian/patches/threshold.patch
patch -p1 < threshold.patch
cd linux_lib/libcrystalhd
make
sudo make install
cd ../../driver/linux
autoconf
./configure
make
sudo make install
sudo modprobe crystalhd

I didn't do anything to xbmc though, just installed xbmc-live from the ubuntu precise repos - a custom build of xbmc shouldn't be necessary, right?

About the firmware, do i have to install it or will it be installed along with either the driver or the library?
