CedarTrail support, ION2 successors and Zotacs new devices
Written by JonNext Generation Platforms: CedarTrail D2700 + Nvidia GT520M - We are optimized already!
We are happy to announce OpenELEC runs on the nextgen CedarTrail + Nvidia GT520M plattforms.
The development version of OpenELEC now includes work from the libaacs project on videolan.org
Progress on the Fusion project - XVBA support
Written by Stephan RaueIn our latest development builds we have included some patches which should improve our Fusion builds but will also affect all other builds. We have included the latest work from FernetMenta and others.
To start the good news, we have accomplished buying a Zotac AD02 box for FernetMenta, which is already in use by him and the first effects are already showing off by some of you.
We are really proud of all users that helped with donating!! Thank you very much. Please do not stop donating, as further development and research on new hardware is still needed.
I think everybody have heard and seen the news ATI have released a new APU called Fusion. It is a relatively cheap solution to combine a CPU and a GPU together in one processor, while still having the power to do some nice tasks. But I'm not paid by AMD, so I'll leave the sales-talk to them.
We are running Linux Kernel 3.0 now and Happy Birthday Linux!!!
Written by Stephan RaueSome hours after releasing kernel 3.0 we have added kernel 3.0 to our builds. We already used prereleases of Kernel 3.0 for some weeks now in our devel builds and many users have tested this Kernel.
Working VAAPI (XVBA) for AMD Fusion devices added
Written by Stephan RaueGood news for all Fusion users!
Today we have added VAAPI support to our Fusion builds.
First tests on our development board an ASUS E35M1-I-Deluxe give a very impressive result and less framedrops than an ION2 system! Still there has to be done a lot of work (like bugfixes and some adjustments), but we're trying to release the first official Fusion RC with the release of OpenELEC RC6.
As most of you have noticed, it's now been a little while since our last release, but there's a lot coming around the corner.
We’re planning to add support for Acer Revo RL100 (which combines an AMD Athlon II Neo K325 CPU with NVIDIA’s ION GPU solution). This device is the next-gen in home entertainment with an built-in TV, combined with WiFi, support for total of 4 GB RAM, combined Blu-ray/DVD drive and up to 500 GB storage.
This would be the perfect combination in support with OpenELEC, the AMD Athlon II Neo K325 in combination with NVIDA’s ION is more powerful then the usual combination of Atom and ION.
Features:
- Model: Acer REVO RL100
- CPU: AMD Athlon II Neo K325 Dual-Core (2 MB L2 Cache, 1.30GHz, 12W)
- Chipset: nVidia MCP61D
- GPU: NVIDIA ION Video Card: Nvidia ION2 GT218
- Memory: 2 or 4 GB DDR3-1333
- HDD: 250GB or 500GB S-ATA (5.400rpm)
- Optical Drive: 8x DVD-Super Multi Double Layer and Blu-ray Disc ™ ROM with DVD SuperMulti (DL)
- Connections: HDMI, 2 x USB, RJ45, S / PDIF optical
- Other Features: High Definition Audio, Multi-in-1 Card Reader, Hybrid TV-Tuner (DVB-T, analog) with remote control Bluetooth Magic Pad (replacing mouse and keyboard with touch-control)
- Wireless LAN: 802.11 b/g/n
The AMD Athlon II Neo K325 Dual-Core gets a score of 772 with PassMark CPU, while a ATOM D525 only scores 718 and leaving the ATOM D510 far behind with only 667 points. (http://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu_lookup.php?cpu=AMD+Athlon+II+Neo+K325+Dual-Core)
Before we’re able to support this device (and other devices with above specifications), we need such a device. Currently we don’t have the amount of money to buy it our self, so we’re kindly asking you to help us with a donation for it.
