Support for NVDEC / NVIDIA VIDEO CODEC for the Jetson Nano

I was able to get Kodi HW acceleration working for Jetson Nano. We have active testing going on Kodi forum.
We got Docker container which contains V19 Matrix Kodi build (Docker Hub) also source code is hosted here (still under development, so bear with me)

hi @hashtag
Thanks for your work. I tried the docker version and its playing the 1080p videos well with hw acceleration. The 720p videos have scaling as well.
But if I use the mouse to move the player seeking forward I get some issues. The interface hangs and does not respond.

In the log I see the line being printed :

NVMEDIA: NvMMLiteNVMEDIADecDoWork: 2244: NVMMLITE_NVMEDIA: This condition is not possible !!!

hi @rreddy78

Thanks for giving it a try. I am glad you was able to boot it up and get HW rendering working. Issue with seeking was also reported on Kodi Forum. I am still looking into it. It is very depends on source file, some plays fine, other hang, and some fall to green screen with nasty memory allocation issues.

Any updates on plex support?
