[SOLVED] Install Problem on Raspberry Pi 4 (Aarch64)

business_kid · 01-06-2023, 08:52 AM

I have a Razpi 4 w/4G and tried manjaro. Manjaro is distributed as a binary image which you dd to an sdcard. The card has two partitions, / & boot, as all boot systems are different on Arm sbcs. Manjaro do an install image for the RazPi and I installed that one, gave the / a little elbow room with parted, and tidied the ext4 filesystem and booted.

I was specifically looking for good video performance. All Seemed fine until I played a video.

Code:

[dec@SparrowFart Videos]$ sudo mpv The_Queens_Gambit_S01E03.mkv

That's a pretty comprehensive failure. Has anyone tried Manjaro on a RazPi? any ideas for me?

The older RasPi needed a license installed to enable hardware accelerated video playback, but the 4 seems different.

if I need to guess it is caused by sudo (XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is not set). Why do you use sudo to play a video?

I tried sudo on mpv that time in case it somehow needed sudo. I tried it without sudo before. I was seeing "Permission denied" errors. I'm still seeing them.

Manjaro also does a 'flat-on-face' error for smplayer with no sudo.

Code:

dec@SparrowFart /]$ smplayer /home/dec/Videos/The_Queens_Gambit_S01E03.mkv
Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 key
qt.qpa.xcb: could not connect to display :0.0
qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found.
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

Available platform plugins are: eglfs, linuxfb, minimal, minimalegl, offscreen, vnc, xcb.

Aborted (core dumped)

From experience with other images, these should stand up & run, so I'm surprised to find these sort of things, and pretty clueless about sorting them.

An old, but an interesting thread, nevertheless. All the GPU gobbledygook is a bit over my head, but I gather the RPi VPU firmware is involved. What's interesting to me is that the thread has posts from March/April 2020. I have Debian's 64bit RPi image from 2020-05-27 and the video rocks. So they obviously sorted themselves out. But if I let Debian update, (32 or 64 bit) the sound goes

One thing I did gather is that firmware plays a bigger role in that VPU than you would expect.

I'm marking this solved because I can't say it's not hardware. So it probably was/is.

I apparently have 2 sdcards and one usb key as casualties in the last week. I'll post again if Manjaro acts up on reliable install media.

I got Manjaro tried on my RazPi and had no permissions errors. I have a large sdcard working in a USB adapter. So the errors were a hardware issue.

I did play my test section of video, an awkward mkv passage which is giving the following results:

Debian plays smoothly at 60%-70% cpu average(excluding peaks). But when you update, the sound goes.
Slarm64 plays @250%-OTT% and drags slightly. It plays worse in vlc because cpu load distribution is worse. Mpv plays it but it drags slightly.
Manjaro played in slow motion at 375%-OTT% but only in slow motion. Sound goes out of sync and there's notices about dropped frames.
Ubuntu supplied no working video player, puked over installing vlc (error 139 installing libc-bin?)and froze the frame. From what I've seen, I won't pursue that. Ubuntu is definitely not for me.
