Robert Mader<p>If any sw-decoder people (<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/dav1d" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dav1d</span></a>, <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ffmpeg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ffmpeg</span></a>, <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/vpx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>vpx</span></a> etc.) read this, do you know how feasible it would be to make decoders:<br>1. support output formats common for hw-decoders, like NV12, P010 etc.? Do some already do, do the <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/gstreamer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gstreamer</span></a> implementions just miss something? Do I miss something?<br>2. support externally allocated buffers, crucially ones with stride != width?</p><p>Both points could help make things more performant - and together they could even allow zero-copy playback with common display engines.</p>
Roy Greenhilt<p>In other hobby news - my <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/virtualpinball" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>virtualpinball</span></a> setup is giving me some hassles. I really want to get Addams Family to work correctly (other tables are working great), but holy crap these graphics look like ass. I wonder what i'm doing wrong.</p><p><a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/vpx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>vpx</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/pinball" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pinball</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/games" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>games</span></a></p>
Roy Greenhilt<p>3d printed a front panel and mounted the basic buttons. About ready to go to the next step on this one and install the new buttons and panel into the big cabinet. </p><p><a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/virtualpinball" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>virtualpinball</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/vpx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>vpx</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/pinball" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pinball</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/gaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gaming</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/3dprinting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>3dprinting</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/maker" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>maker</span></a></p>
Roy Greenhilt<p>I'm having WAY too much fun with this build. This is a VirtualPinball table, currently running GOONIES. I've gotten the playsurface, backglass, and dot matrix display working, controls are currently on the keyboard, but i have the parts for the rest of the box. </p><p>I think I'm going to scale up the monitor from 27" to 32" before building out the actual cabinet. But holy cats this is fun.</p><p><a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/virtualpinball" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>virtualpinball</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/vpx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>vpx</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/goonies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>goonies</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/gaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gaming</span></a></p>

Jason Bergman<p>Sunday morning pinball on the cabinet: played a bit of the stellar new Total Nuclear Annihilation for VPX, as well as the new remastered Fantastic Four in Pinball FX (my favorite FX3 table!).</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/virtualpinball" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>virtualpinball</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/vpx" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>vpx</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/pinballfx" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>pinballfx</span></a></p>
Jason Bergman<p>The release of VPW&#39;s Big Bang Bar got me to finally go through the long and arduous process of getting everything to work with VPX 64-bit. </p><p>Hoooo boy did it work though. The physics on this thing are mind blowing. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/virtualpinball" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>virtualpinball</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/pinball" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>pinball</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/vpx" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>vpx</span></a></p>
Jason Bergman<p>I was sure we&#39;d seen the last major VPW release before the end of the year, but then they dropped a Christmas present in the form of Game of Thrones. </p><p>And what a table this is! Deep, complex rules, worthy of the source material. Yet another killer VPW release. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/pinball" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>pinball</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/virtualpinball" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>virtualpinball</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/VPX" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>VPX</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/VPW" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>VPW</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/gameofthrones" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>gameofthrones</span></a></p>
Jason Bergman<p>I know I&#39;ve said this like ten times this year, but man, VPW is killing it with their VPX releases. The latest is a recreation of Stern&#39;s X-Men, and it&#39;s just awesome. </p><p>Gorgeous graphics, fantastic physics, and some of the best uses of DOF effects I&#39;ve ever seen. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/virtualpinball" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>virtualpinball</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/vpx" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>vpx</span></a></p>
