Qt6 Application Testing

[Paul Smedley]

I'll double check the flags which are set in the gn build file for ffmpeg this evening.

OK,  so I forgot I built ffmpeg separately as DLLs.

I configured with:
dash ./configure --arch=pentium4 --disable-avx2 --disable-avx512 --enable-bzlib --disable-crystalhd --enable-fontconfig --enable-gnutls --enable-libfreetype --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libopenjpeg --enable-libopus --disable-decoder=opus --disable-encoder=opus --enable-libtheora --enable-libvorbis --enable-libvpx --enable-libwebp --enable-libx264 --enable-libxvid --enable-avfilter --enable-postproc --disable-static --enable-shared --enable-gpl --disable-debug --disable-stripping --cpu=pentium4 --enable-runtime-cpudetect

adding --disable-avx to this now, and will rebuild with GCC 14.

 Tried Remy's REXX script and it helped tremendously! Now I can play videos embedded on websites with no trouble (yet to try youtube) -thanks Remy! I am using the HDA driver in VirtualBox, with Paul's latest UNIAud build.

Regards,

EDIT: Even YouTube is usable - no silent exit!

[Remy]

Remy's cmd seems to work fairly well, on the 2nd try youtube works as expected for a while then the UI gets kind of stuck needing to close Dooble.

Hi Dave,
How is it responding when you do not move the mouse and than, when you move it a lot during youtube play ?

Hi Paul,
is there a reason to enable, disable:

--enable-libopus --disable-decoder=opus --disable-encoder=opus

Is --enable-avresample parm supported ?

Regards 

[David McKenna]

Remy.

  I haven't noticed any strange mouse movement during video play, but will pay attention. I have had Dooble eventually hang during playback, but usually (about 4 out of 5 times) can still use the WPS, but it is not killable so have to reboot.

Regards,

[Remy]

I wonder if it's the change in priority or the QTWEBENGINE_CHROMIUM_FLAGS that makes the difference? If it's priority, we could consider setting this in dooble.

Hi Paul,
Do you think about something like -webengine-proprietary-codecs ?

[G. M. Anchieri]

Hi Paul,
I'm testing your last QT6 release with the last of DOOBLE QT6, all of site visited function almost as espected
but can you visit this site in OS/2-eCS-ArcaOS General New :
   -  ARCAOS NLV (National Language Version) POLL
if you enter and then push the button to show result, DOOBLE close immediately, no exceptq in C:\VAR\LOG\APPS.

Thank you for your work to mantain our OS/2.

G.M. Anchieri

Same here,

https://www.os2world.com/cms/index.php/past-news/79-news/general/23815-arcaos-nlv-national-language-version-poll
Opening the strawpoll link and then show result (dooble closes)

 ------------------------------------------------

I tried an other setting of the priority which seems good too or a little better

SysSetPriority(3,8) instead of  SysSetPriority(1,3)

Changing Time-critical priority instead of Idle-time priority
By curiosity, is it possible to have priority set on the ffmpeg part only instead of all the process ?

I'm able to open a new tab while playing youtube but the requested newlink will not display and may stuck dooble after several seconds

Kill Dooble and close the prompt window from which dooble was started.

Hi Paul!

will ffmpeg be usable if adding --enable-pthreads option ?

From memory, I copied these configure parameters from the bww ffmpeg builds. I've attached the full list of supported configure parameters (this is from the ffmpeg embedded in the qtwebengine codebase). looks like --enable-avresample isn't supported

Hi Paul,

This is already enabled when building qtwebengine:

Code: [Select]

dash /qt6-6.2.x/bin/qt-configure-module .. -webengine-proprietary-codecs 2>&1 | tee configure.log

Hi Paul!

will ffmpeg be usable if adding --enable-pthreads option ?

We already use the os2threads code in https://github.com/psmedley/qt6-webengine-os2/blob/main/src/3rdparty/chromium/third_party/ffmpeg/compat/os2threads.h

[Dave Yeo]

Hi Paul!
ill ffmpeg be usable if adding --enable-pthreads option ?

FFmpeg will automatically enable os2threads, less over head then pthreads.
