Did you check if the videos that you're playing are a format supported by your hardware? Hardware video acceleration ASICs don't decode every video format out there past, present and future; they support specific formats, profiles, and level. The HD5000 series was developed in 2009-2010 so they're ...

Playing a 1080p h264 mov file on a X5000/40 with a Radeon HD6970 (Cayman XT) : Also your CPU usage is very high, taking into account you have 4 cores... With 2 cores it would be difficult to run that video decently. When I tested with Ubuntu to turn off the 'Accelerated video output' in VLC 2.2.2, ...

When I saw the famous picture of a Sam460 with AmigaOS4.1running two 4K videos simultaneously, with only 8% CPU usage, I was shocked... If I run in X5000/20 (Ubuntu 16.04) with VLC a 720p (1280x720, 25 fps) MP4 video, the CPU usage is c. 80% per core! So is there something wrong in my system, or is ...

I released the stable kernel 5.5.11 for the X5000 and X1000 today.

Seems to work ok... But DPAA still connects only with the 'replug' method.

I'm looking for a way to run UBoot commands at backround, during normal bootup of X5000. Is there any way for this...? Like some sort of "UBoot startup-sequense" which could be customised?

@nbache Thank you for the tip, Niels! I had totally forgotten it was activated in WBStartup... @Raziel What hardware, how much ram and what resolution do you use? I have X5000/20 with max RAM, Radeon HD 5450 1GB and I use 1280x1024x32. I do not know exactly how long it takes to the blanker to crash ...

I have problems with the AmigaOS 4.1 ScreenBlanker (v. 53.5). It crashes (DSI, Guru 80000003) during the 'blanking'. Also, if I open the ScreenBlanker prefs program, it crashes immediately! So I cannot even try to change it's settings... I can disable and 'remove' it from Commodities exchange, but e...

I believe it is an ATI Radeon R9 270X. How do i get the updated card files to the CD? I'm afraid it is not possible to update the driver directly on the OS 4.1 CD... I tried a few years ago as I had a similar problem as you, but it did not work. I think the simplest way is to ask a new, bootable US...

Ok. So, i have downloaded the cd iso and burnt to cd (at the lowest speed). When booting the x5000 all that happens is a Grey screen and nothing more. Any ideas? Which graphics card do you have in your X5000? The OS4.1 CD has only a rudimentary Radeon driver which does not support the newer cards. ...

Tested RC6... It still has the same issue with DPAA - connection is not created automatically, I have to replug the cable.
