Re: Raspberry Pi 2

SVP is currently Windows-only.

If you want to run SVP natively without streaming from another PC, your best bet would be the future Linux version.

Just note that SVP is quite CPU-intensive.  Even if the Pi 2's CPU has IPC better than a Core 2 Duo, you're still going to have to use moderately reduced settings even for 720p 30fps video (even if said video is decoded in hardware - somewhat relevant link).

cool. thanks for your prompt reply. cheers.

Re: Raspberry Pi 2

SVP 4 Linux will work with mpv.
Still we have no plans to make ARM version now.

Re: Raspberry Pi 2

Is MPV the only player Linux will support? 

Also, I hate to be that guy but could you at least provide a small update for the status of Linux?  I understand you've already stated in another thread that you don't want to give a release date as you don't want to lie (despite the initial date already being off : P), but a small description/estimate of how much work is left to be done would be extremely appreciated.  Thanks.
