[RPi2]mkv codec-HEVC (H.265) wont play - moacir.ferreira - 18th Feb, 2015 03:19 AM
Hi,
I have just installed a new raspberry pi 2 with the licences and I did an upgrade. When trying to play a mkv file, on the first try xbian go back to the initial profile page. On the second try I get the video sound but not the video. In attach you can find the logs.
Can someone help?

It plays on VLC (Windows 7, 64 bits). I have converted the mkv to mp4 using VLC and deleted the original file. However, I am having the very same problem with another mkv file. You can find the VLC information about this file it in attach.
I don't know how to do it but if you tell so I can get the file info from xbian.

You can't play HEVC (H.265) files on the Pi 2.

That partial log is completely useless.
RE: mkv codec - rikardo1979 - 18th Feb, 2015 05:50 AM
but no log is needed anyway as @f1vefour pinpointed

So, is it there any hardware (device) out there, HDMI CEC enabled, that I can use and still also play HEVC?
Thanks,

yes, computers. the best with HW decoding capabilities for HEVC (H.265), preferably with Intel i7 CPU or equivalent
regarding CEC, you can use adaptor from pulse eight

didn't we had this discussion before? Mods should put a sticky about Xbian and HEVC playback...
