This is a Kodi visualization addon.
You can either install this version for ODROID-C2 with Kodi 17, or compile yourself for other platforms that has Kodi 17 installed (see Build instructions).
NOTE: A version for Raspberry Pi 32-bits is available for testing purposes: see Installation of the zip file addon.
Tested on Kodi, from versions v14 to v17.6.
Installed addons in Kodi 17 packages for ODROID-C2 do not contain any visualization addon that shows something on screen. They've been compiled against OpenGL libraries, but in ODROID-C2 only OpenGLESv2 libraries use the Mali Graphics Processor, and the addon cmake ignored GLESv2 if GL is found.
WARNING: This addon has been compiled for ODROID-C2 devices with odroid's Ubuntu 16.04 packaged Kodi v17.6.
WARNING: Do not install the zip file addon on devices different from ODROID-C2 unless you know that the hardware is compatible (linux arm64, GLESv2). Nonetheless, you can compile it to produce your own zip file addon: see the Build instructions.
NOTE: A version for Raspberry Pi 2 32-bits (not tested on RPi 1 or RPi 3) is available for testing purposes: go to the release info for RPi. The addon is stable, but please, note that some shaders may hang the RPi (RAM and GPU are different from those of ODROID-C2): if somebody do the work of deleting these ones from the json, I'd happily patch the zip!.
Tested on Kodi, from versions v14 to v17.6.
- Download the zip file visualization.shadertoy-3.14.zip to your ODROID-C2 device
- Install from your Kodi:
Addons > box icon on top left corner > Install from zip file
If looking for the RPi instructions, please go to the release info for RPi.
More than 50 new shaders (visualizations) have been tested (and modified when needed) to run under the GPU Mali450 (ODROID-C2).
See a complete list of included shaders here, including thumbnails in most cases!
Shaders can be easily added, removed or renamed modifying the json file .kodi/addons/visualization.shadertoy/resources/presets_GLES.json. If you are not using GLESv2, you must modify the file presets.json instead.
Please, note that filename or shader's name cannot exceed 41 chars.
You can search for, compile and test new shaders at shadertoy.com - please, note that your browser will use your PC's GPU capabilities, so if you're gonna use the shader file on another hardware like ODROID-C2 or RPi, you have to later test it there: GLESv2 and GPU's hardware will impose serious computation and language restrictions: take a look at your GPU capabilities and see this quick reference to GLESv2 to start.
This addon is forked from v1.1.5 xbmc/visualization.shadertoy, with additional commits from popcornmix like fixes and the Randomise mode.
Now new shaders can be easily added, removed or renamed modifying the json file .kodi/addons/visualization.shadertoy/resources/presets_GLES.json.
There's a problem with the time precision of Mali450 (13 bits!) that limited time duration of animations to 8 seconds before being restarted. Now there's a setting to raise that limit from 2x to 16x. As the time evolves, the animation can degrade in some shaders, but for shaders like SHAPE the multiplier runs smoothly. The time multiplier can also be set per shader in the json conf file as seventh parameter (by default is 1x, overriden by the global setting, if set).
Some shaders has been changed and other new ones have been added, like Alhambra or Voronoi - distances.
Also, cmake now correctly compile against GLESv2 libraries.
OpenGLESv2 function texture2DLodEXT has been added to main.cpp with #extension GL_EXT_shader_texture_lod : enable.
Notes for RPi version: time multiplier (7th parameter) has been deleted from json file as it is not needed.
