Hi again,

Mine: RockChip 2918, Open Vivante GPU GC800
electronico and curious: TI OMAP 4430, PowerVR SGX540
alexdon: NovaThor U8500, Mali 400 single
kymh: Allwinner A10, Mali 400

4 different chips, 4 different GPUs, all not working. But:

kymh: Nvidia Tegra 2 T20, ULP GeForce
and other usng BSPlayer with no problems....working.

The post I mentioned isn't only about this compatibility problem (Mali 400 GPU). I mentioned it because they talk about the Rockchip RK3066 (that morpheo asked about in this thread). There're other SoCs metioned too, many of them with the same Mali GPU that don't work with hardware acceleration.

Surely there're other SoCs with other GPUs (other than Mali 400) that also are incompatible with BS.Player. But my request in this thread is specifically about Mali 400, I don't know or have information about the other SoCs/GPUs.

Thanks!
