I was not aware that the ad hoc hackery was even in CM7. Could it be related to the wifi cycling issues? I seem to recall it creating some kind of problem for some stock Eclair users but do not remember the details.

In any case, I'm glad to see it removed, even if temporarily, so that can be tested.
[Nook Color Android Development] MACLUIS1:
I installed Dalingrin's test build and video was working at a slow rate as expected, but then I installed the nighly v.21 (I know DSP is not working on this version) and lost bluetooth. Reverted to v. 19 and also lost bluetooth. Does it have anything to do with installing Dalingrins latest kernel(3/16/2011) or should I have wiped my cache. I am definitely not wiping data. Any ideas?.
[Nook Color Android Development] barrist:
did you reboot after installing the new builds? i've heard BT works after a reboot after re-flashing rom.

i always wipe cache partition before flashing
[Nook Color Android Development] MACLUIS1:
Will try when I get back home, Thanks.
[Nook Color Android Development] rulevoid:
Power cycle by holding power button. No other way for me will get Bluetooth working again after flashing new roms
[Nook Color Android Development] Kendr1ck:
From ROM Manager, run "Fix Permissions", then hard power cycle the Nook. (Hold down the Power button for 8ish seconds and let the Nook power off. DON'T CLICK SHUTDOWN WHEN IT POPS UP).

This has worked for me everytime I've flashed a new nightly or kernel. I don't know why exactly it keeps happening, but this process restores bluetooth for me without fail.
[Nook Color Android Development] rulevoid:
I got 1470 on stock CM7 overclocked to 950 with ondemand governor on DSP test build...

I hit 2100 in HoneyComb preview.
[Nook Color Android Development] MACLUIS1:
Is it me or are you always asking somebody else to do something?. I don't even know why dalingrin wastes his time answering your annoying criticsm.

And excuse my rudeness!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Nook Color Android Development] djhotpocket:
Changes that are still in review: (these will not make it into the nightly)

-DSP firmware added

-Rotary lock screen fixed

-Wifi adhoc removed

Is the WiFi ad hoc going to be permanently removed or is it just going to be removed temporarily for testing? I use wireless tether on my rooted Droid 1 while I'm at work, which uses the ad hoc, so this would hurt. Does anyone know?
[Nook Color Android Development] rulevoid:
Do you have the latest version from the android wifi tether Google code site? Thought almost all devices now supported infrastructure mode.

Edit - after doing some reading looks like they never got infrastructure mode going on OG Droid. Have you tried wifi tether version 3.0 pre11 and just use Bluetooth?
[Nook Color Android Development] djhotpocket:
Im currently using version 2.0.7 (downloaded from the market). I will try the new version you mentioned and see if it works. Thanks :)

I am still wondering if the ad hoc support will be a permanent removal though.
[Nook Color Android Development] hootyburra:
Running build 21 w latest oc kernel and I can't get the screen to rotate to landscape.
[Nook Color Android Development] tominabox1:
Downloaded 3.0 pre 11 on my phone and it runs ok....haven't tried to tether with my Nook yet since I'm at work but woudl love to know if the latest dev build (without Ad-Hoc) works with the wifi tether (though if worst comes to worst we can all just use bluetooth)
[Nook Color Android Development] elwood1229:
I have a Droid OG, wifi tether version 3.0 pre11, and a Nook Running the 3/15 video build test. I am not able to wifi tether, but Blue Tooth is running (it says it pairs with the Droid OG but never connects). Can you explain or point me towards directions on how to tether using BT? I am unable to figure that out and would very much like to have some way to tether my NC to my Droid. Thank you.
[Nook Color Android Development] Paul22000:
For those running the latest test build with DSP, can you test if Need For Speed Shift works? :)
[Nook Color Android Development] gifferjesus:
I've no intention of moving past 19 for now if adhoc isn't coming back, I used it frequently.
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
I don't even see it in the market.
[Nook Color Android Development] Canadoc:
I agree with you that adoc is important so I copied the wifi folder before updating . Figure I could add it back if need be.

Not sure if this will work but worth a try .

From 1.1 Nook Color with 1.1 ghz overclock
[Nook Color Android Development] dalingrin:
First make sure you are truely using adhoc and not a softap(infrastructure) mode. For instance, I tether to my cell phone with infastructure mode rather than adhoc. If you are using adhoc then turning adhoc back on is very simple. Easiest way would be to use Root Explorer.

-Navigate to /system/etc/wifi

-Hit the "mount R/W" button

-Open tiwlan.ini by long pressing and select "Open in Text Editor"

-Scroll about halfway down the text document and change "WifiAdhoc" to 1
[Nook Color Android Development] Irish Cream:
Just want to thank you a million times for your work on this... video works pretty darn good considering its the first build with it.

Should we expect a nightly tonight?
[Nook Color Android Development] AWiseMonkey:
It worked prior to the DSP stuff, but it didnt scale to full screen, was limited to the 4" screen that I had on my captivate. Not sure if it was because I did a Ti back and restore to my nook, or if that is just a limitation of the game. I noticed they are going to release a tablet version. You wont find it in the market, i think because of the version of android (2.3.3) isnt supported by NFS.

[Nook Color Android Development] gifferjesus:
Ah, I see. Well, I understand the move then. Thank you.
[Nook Color Android Development] sebanoel:
With test kernel, OC patch from Daligrim and moboplayer, i can watch a full screen movie. Our IPS LCD screen is really amazing. I just don't know if decoding is software or hardware. It's running fine.

Thank you.

Thanks also for the correction of the lock screen. I disabled "autounlock".

Wifi is ok for me. I do not use BT so i cannot comment it.

One weird thing:

When i connect usb charger, touch screen is completely miscalibrated. Even when using "touchrecalibrate". If i disconnect usb, everything is acting normally.
[Nook Color Android Development] faceman66:
-wiped cache /dalvik

-flashed test build 31511

-flashed oc kernel 31611

Sorry so late to the party, but wanted to throw in my experience as well.
[Nook Color Android Development] computercarl:
Known issue. I've seen it on more than a few that I've rooted.
[Nook Color Android Development] brashmadcap:
DSP

I remember on some other ROMS that I had for phones the 3D acceleration was arbitrarily limited to 15 fps. Now, I am not a developer but: might something similar be going on here? The same solution possibly? Total shot in the dark but thanks for reading.
[Nook Color Android Development] motitas:
Yeah, I used to have that issue only when plugged to the wall. Ever since dalingrin added deeper blue's touch conf to the kernels it went away! Maybe you should try some of the newer kernels.
[Nook Color Android Development] altimax98:
went ahead and flashed the most recent.. here are a few finds...

runs really well. I personally dont think its as fast as v2 of HC, but the lack of all running apps on HC build stinks.

When i installed v21 over v17 my Titanium backup and Gmail required a uninstall and reinstall to get working.. No biggie..

Otherwise so far is pretty slick

** Youtube works, but like stated in the first post its choppy... Youve got to crawl before you can walk :) cant wait for fully working youtube and roms :)
[Nook Color Android Development] bonobomidwest:
I had the same misgivings. HOWEVER if youbdownload the experimental release of wifi tether from the website then it creates an infrastructure network, even on my poor old stock HTC hero. You gotta love this program btw with the Mac address filtering...

Works great for the latest nightlies and kernel... so no worries... I have no idea if similar solutions exist on other phone os
[Nook Color Android Development] jayjay7411:
So cm7 nightlies now include the dsp also????
[Nook Color Android Development] altimax98:
I don't understand why everyone is so upset over the ad-hoc change. I tether from my Droid 1and push the WPA_supplicant file in another thread in this section and it works like a charm. No issues on adhoc or infrustructure.

As to the other question for me... I misspoke. The test build had dsp built in, not the nightly as of last night. But The test build runs pretty flawlessly except a few apps i needed to reinstall which was weird.

Edit: looks like a nightly 22 was released this morning early. I don't know if it includes dsp I'm at work and can't flash it

I'm running nightly v22 with DSP rolled in and dalingrin's OC kernel. Noyceness. :)

[Nook Color Android Development] Clom801:
Quick question about nightlies: I have been running the nightlies from Rom Manager. Is there a danger to this? I'm a noob when it comes to the nook tab and I keep hearing about burning an image to the sd. The reason I am asking this on this thread rather than q and a is because that use I know koush is a part of team douche. Thanks in advance for your answers.
[Nook Color Android Development] Eddog4DROID:
Just go directly to the "Team Douche" site from the first post. Wipe Cache Partition. Install Nightly Zip. Install Kernel. Call it a day. No need to mess with ROM Manager when it is as easy to do it yourself.

Next question, how does one get a working market that shows all of your downloaded apps in the newest nighties? Is this possible? I cleared market caches but it is not showing all of my apps as downloaded....?
[Nook Color Android Development] Eddog4DROID:
15 fps = choppy
[Nook Color Android Development] jayjay7411:
So as of nightly 22 dsp is in built in like the test build here? Just wanted to know cause I flash almost all nightlies just dontbwanna get off this test build and lose dsp.
[Nook Color Android Development] barrist:
i asked the same question

nightly22 and the test build is the same.
[Nook Color Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:
Dsp is hardware acceleration, correct? So we now have the TV off animation correct?
[Nook Color Android Development] tominabox1:
no, the animation still does not work.
[Nook Color Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:
That sucks
[Nook Color Android Development] mrkrabs:
Really?? The test build rotary lockscreen was fixed but now its not formatted correctly again in N22??
[Nook Color Android Development] aludal:
The correct verbiage is "GPU (SGX) + DSP (IVA2) combo is meant to offer hardware acceleration." The realization of it is under way, as we speak. That is to say, some, or even many animations, Flash games, movies, animations, other animations may or may not work, at will.

Some pieces of discussion on NC hardware acceleration capabilities can be found in my blog.
[Nook Color Android Development] TheTodFather:
Hey Dalingrin,

Earlier today i thought i had flashed your kernel and was doing some benchmarking and for the first time I hit 1400 on quadrant. I usually never make it past 1000. Obviously I was never really able to test since dsp didn't work. However when I did notice I hadn't flashed your OC Kernel, I flashed then set the cpu to 1100 and then set the gov to interactive. So when I did the quadrant test again with the OC Kernel set like I had just explained it wouldn't get past 1000. I also notice the frames per second had dropped as well. Just wanted to let you know. Maybe that might help you in your quest. I was usuing Quadrant to see the test the frame rates but what I had found was not expected and like I said previously just wanted you to know hoping that might help in some way. Thanks in full.

1st test at score was 1400 with stock cm7 kernel nightly 22.

2nd test score was 999 with your newest Kernel and gov set at interactive and clock at 1.1Ghz.
[Nook Color Android Development] woot1524:
Interesting, I was just about to mention this.

With Nookie Froyo I was seeing 1400-1700

With HC 2nd ED. I was getting 1700-2100

Now with CM7 R22 and the latest OC kernel, I can't break 1000.

So, pretty much the same thing that TheTodFather said.

TBH I don't really see this as an issue, These are alpha roms and kernels. I kind of expect everything to not work perfectly. I just wanted to second this observation. If it becomes pertinent to know my exact setup, I'll edit this post.
[Nook Color Android Development] mtm88001:

Well add me to the list of people having the issue of turning on Bluetooth build 22. When I try to turn. It on it acts like it is turning on, but still ends up off.
[Nook Color Android Development] krweby:
Video works well if I off load the sound to my laptop through the bluetooth. Just thought I would throw that out there. :D

If you need the bluetooth peripheral driver this worked for me.

[Nook Color Android Development] lafester:
did you turn the nook off then back on again?

just did this to test and it worked fine.

must use the power button to power off... not using any software or reboot options.
[Nook Color Android Development] j4mm3r:
Thats a good find! there is a marked difference in the video FPS when using a bluetooth headset, so I'm thinking that all this time we've been targeting the wrong subsystem for the choppy video.

Need to look into this more closely. Thanks anyways.
[Nook Color Android Development] aludal:
That is very interesting! A "regular" fps was 10-15, what is the estimate for it when the audio is "offloaded"? (max for YouTubeHQ was 40-59 at Eclair level).

Now, after watching video for 5+ minutes, are there any A/V (lipsync, and the like) problems? Yeah, maybe we are barking on a wrong tree: lots of frames are dropped, but the frames themselves are well (HW assisted) rendered up to 1080p now trying to sync with the audio which is somehow not using IVA2, hence frames are dropped.

nightly 23 is out.

TIA

[Nook Color Android Development] pgwipeout:
Verified this as well, Video is smooth as butter as long as the Nook is pushing audio over Bluetooth. As I moved the Nook away from my Computer, the audio became choppy and the framerate dropped to exactly the same speed as the choppy audio.

Looks like audio sync could be the cause of our issues with DSP.
[Nook Color Android Development] Narfx:
I hope this is related to the annoying audio sync issue in scummvm when playing in the nook color and both get fixed at the same time...
[Nook Color Android Development] fattire:
Refreshing hardware/alsa_sound to latest....

~/android/system/$ cd hardware; rm -rf alsa_sound ; \
git clone git://git.omapzoom.org/platform/hardware/alsa_sound.git ; croot
~/android/system/$ brunch encore

It builds and sound still works. Nothing else seems to be different.

To be more up to date, someone might check out rebasing alsa_lib (CM uses 1.0.23, latest is 1.0.24.1 ) and alsa_utils (1.0.23 / 1.0.24.2).

Probably does nothing helpful. But then again maybe it does fix some things (the encore is an OMAP system-on-a-chip). Either way, it can't hurt to be current.

And then there's this:

* ASoC: Add build infrastructure for WL1273

I guess that's FM radio support too. But the encore doesn't have the antenna or so I hear.
[Nook Color Android Development] dalamchops:
that's a huge breakthrough just to actually pinpoint the source of the problem!
[Nook Color Android Development] barrist:
Nice to hear that the source of the DSP issue may be found!
[Nook Color Android Development] timekeeper:
Wow, found the same result! I turned on bluetooth, paired my A2DP adapter, wifi, and the HQ videos played super-smooth. Sound and video are perfectly in sync.

The video I shot (because I had nothing better to do) shows it playing in portrait with Bluetooth and Wifi icons on -- running Nightly23 with dalingrin's 3/16 OC kernel at 1.1ghz on the interactive governor.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kOY8NTzPsLI

Please excuse the lousy quality, it was recorded off my Blackberry 9100. I have another vid of me turning it sideways for fullscreen, which also plays just as smooth, which I'll up if people want to see it. Good find!
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
Is this the same antenna that would work for bluetooth? I can solder tiny stuff if I could find the pad/leg which needed to be soldered. Could use some coated wire as an antenna and cut it to length. (zomg ham radio finally paying off?)

Lol im a ham too

BT headset

I managed to get BTGPS running. What is needed to get audio out to the BT headset? I tried the media player but can't get music out to the headset. Thanks.
[Nook Color Android Development] :
Smooth FPS with bluetooth audio

Just to confirm (like everyone else :P) When audio is outputted through my netbook, the video is very smooth (as in smooth like it should be). Regardless of clock speed. Have been doing back to back videos (same video, different audio ouput) and have been getting the same thing. Smooth with audio on netbook, 10-15 fps with audio on NC.

I hope darlington reads this stuff ;)

Well, I guess the other devs can kick some butt then! :D Anyone know who the other devs are? I'd like to thank them/donate to the beer fund.
[Nook Color Android Development] :
I was wondering, is there any easy way to disable audio on the NC (not mute; disable the driver) and see what that does? Or is it tied is pretty tightly?
[Nook Color Android Development] Divine_Madcat:
Given all the amazing work he has been doing, i think he has a right to take a well earned vacation. ;)

Any way to route audio to the mono bt headset?

Tried even with an app called mono bt but the audio still comes through the speaker.

From 1.1 Nook Color with 1.1 ghz overclock
[Nook Color Android Development] newellj79:
I'd like to know if anyone has tried audio thru a bt headset and if the video is smooth as if pumping it thru a bt connected PC. I don't have a headset to test on but if confirmed I'm going to pick one up. Thanx guys.
[Nook Color Android Development] :
I believe if you read a page or two earlier, someone did (although I may be wrong). Also, currently I do not believe you can use a device that is not a2dp compatible (I could be wrong?).
[Nook Color Android Development] dalingrin:
Its good to see that I wasn't crazy for thinking the DSP and codecs were working fine.

I will be away for the next week on a business trip to Germany and France so I will be almost completely out of touch. If another developer hasn't fixed the audio by then, I will work on it when I get back.
[Nook Color Android Development] Divine_Madcat:
Hope the trip goes well for you; we cannot thank you enough for your amazing work.
[Nook Color Android Development] aludal:
Thank you for your valuable effort, Mr. fattire! Sure, one day we will have FM radio on NC, why not?

However, in the absence of dalingrin we have a much more pressing problem: an extremely low FPS in video with the frames themselves being of hardware rendering quality (="HQ", or you may call it "HD"), there's too much droppage. As krweby here has shown here, a very probable culprit is ineffective (software?) audio decoding, then syncing the output with video causes severe video frames droppage.

There might be also nothing wrong with corresponding audio libs, and overall DSP audio code, it could be just some faulty init/config/HWstagefright code that just fell through and out of TI OMAP git.

As any indication of a "correct" audio-in-sync-with-video tuning is good old Eclair with YouTubeHQ, everything was fine there.
[Nook Color Android Development] newellj79:
I'm not familiar with a2dp. Could you please enlighten me. I have used the bt to my laptop for music, using the preinstalled software on my laptop.
[Nook Color Android Development] :
Sure: Here.

Also: Here.

From above:

I have very limited understanding of bluetooth, but I am under the impression (correct me!) that most headsets do not use the A2DP protocol since it is (stereo?) and there is no need. If you are using a wireless stereo headset, then try moving it closer. I also had more luck in pairing and using when I disabled wifi, then reenabled it after pairing.
[Nook Color Android Development] aludal:
We really want to see another clip, yes:

-- in landscape, full screen;

-- less shaky, can you use a tripod or something. I know, the excitement is huge, but still...;

-- in YouTube, please type in Search something like "HD movie", or "IMAX", or "1080p", find a clip, movie trailer with large, fast panoramas, lots of action, whatever your fancy (but not a gameplay, please!), try doing these;

-- if possible, try to record the audio coming out of your BT laptop/whatever, to see if lipsync is there.

TIA

Really timekeeper - don't waste your time with aludal's request - the video you posted is just fine and shows the issue. aludal is on this wierd quest, constantly doing on about DSP this and DSP that, and it is just silly now. Obviously, the issue lies elsewhere, and should be examined as such.
