6251 | 1 How to use a Sigma Designs Hollywood Plus and/or a Creative DXR3 (by David Holm) |
2 ================================================================================ | |
2646 | 3 |
4478 | 4 Thanks goes out to Daniel Bell for the donation of a brand new 20GB IBM |
5 harddisk. | |
6 | |
4096 | 7 1. Requirements |
2646 | 8 |
6251 | 9 * First of all you will need properly installed DXR3/H+ drivers, version |
10 0.12.0 or later. You can find them at | |
4096 | 11 http://dxr3.sourceforge.net/ |
6251 | 12 (You only need to run "make install devices" in em8300-x.y.z/modules, |
13 not in the root directory.) | |
2646 | 14 |
6251 | 15 * Run <mplayerdir>/configure and make sure that DXR3/H+ support = yes. |
16 If you want to play files other than MPEG I highly recommend you install | |
5426 | 17 libavcodec as well (Read DOCS/codecs.html for more info). |
2646 | 18 |
6251 | 19 From here on compilation (at least of my code ;)) should go without any |
2646 | 20 problems. |

6251 | 25 |
26 -vo dxr3:<noprebuf>:<codec>:<device> Where noprebuf specifies turning off | |
27 prebuffering. This is done automatically | |
28 on Athlons. If playback is out of sync | |

6251 | 52 |
53 -ao oss:/dev/em8300_ma-X For audio output, where X is the device | |
54 number (0 if one card). | |
55 | |
56 -ac hwac3 For digital instead of analog audio | |
57 output. | |
58 | |
59 -vc mpegpes Force hardware acceleration, only works | |
60 with MPEG1/2. | |
61 | |
62 -aop list=resample:fout=xxxxx If sample rate is below 44100Hz, select | |
63 either 44100Hz or 48000Hz depending on | |
5426 | 64 which which one matches closest. I.e. |
6251 | 65 if the movie uses 22050Hz use 44100Hz as |
66 44100 / 2 = 22050, if it is 24000Hz use | |
67 48000Hz as 48000 / 2 = 24000 and so on. | |

6116 | 72 Overlay |
6251 | 73 |
74 To get overlay run dxr3view that comes with the em8300 package before starting | |
75 MPlayer. You can set various options in dxr3view by pressing T while holding | |
6116 | 76 the mouse cursor above the window. |

2770 | 79 MPEG-1, MPEG-2, VCD and DVD Notes |
6251 | 80 |
81 MPEG 1/2 content should now automatically be detected by MPlayer and it will | |
5426 | 82 use the hardware acceleration of the DXR3 to play it. If not, you can force |
6251 | 83 it to hardware acceleration with '-vc mpegpes'. Also, if you plan to use any |
84 postprocessing filters you must use '-vc mpeg12'. | |
85 | |
86 In some instances, subtitles may not appear properly in sync with the A/V stream | |
87 when using hardware decoding ('-vc mpegpes'). This is a known bug. The em8300 | |
88 will also improperly handle subtitles that are too big, and may hang for a second | |
89 or two. At this time, the only workaround is to use '-vc mpeg12' when viewing | |
90 DVDs with subtitles. | |
