Preface
Hi !
In my reading of various threads it's become apparent that there are MANY people who passionately
desire a "real FM radio" app. Not all of us live in data dense areas, or can afford the costs of
streaming audio. And not all of us have given up on RF broadcasts, either due to our tastes,
local available programming, lack of commercials or whatever. And many of us very much desire
the ability to transmit on the FM band for various reasons.
I want this thread to deal with TI FM radios on all devices that contain TI chips. My observation is that
there is a great deal of commonality in the TI chips supporting FM in the last 4-6 years.
I don't generally want to deal with the Broadcom FM chips here, but the audio routing issues will be similar.
I also WOULD like to create a list of devices containing the FM chips they use, so people can more quickly
determine their FM chip type.
To non-devs who want FM yesterday: Yes, I know. No need to post about it. I'll do my best to create some
kind of app ASAP, but first some fundamentals need to be figured out. I'd think and hope that others will also
be able to create FM radio apps from the info here and elsewhere.
This thread is in a developer forum, and as such it would be preferable to limit discussion to technical
aspects, preferrably by those who are developers or thereabouts in terms of technical skills. It's hard
work sometimes to slog through near 100 page threads such as the one for the Nexus One FM radio.
If you have simple questions, comments, requests, corrections or additions to this, please consider
PMing me directly and I'll do my best to incorporate that into the thread, giving acknowledgement
if you so desire.
That said, I've posted FM Receiver and FM Transmitter scripts below. If you feel you have a reasonable
capability to try these scripts on your device, please do, and report here or via PM on success or failure
if you might be among the first few to try these on your device/model.
I will try to keep these first posts updated with the latest information, so hopefully you won't need to post
questions about whether or not your device works by referring to the "Devices" post.
---------------------
Introduction
I've enabled the FM radio functions on my HTC Legend. It is also known to work on HTC Tattoo.
Scouring the web looking for the magic incantations to enable FM audio I'm finding myself overwhelmed with all the things I don't know.
Much of the information needed is kept under wraps by TI and their customers. To get TI's information requires signing an NDA,
and perhaps other legal documents. Signing such an NDA limits how much you can say publicly, and I'd prefer to not be under
such constraints. I'm not even sure if an NDA would be sufficient for a person not employed by TI or a TI customer.
Thus this thread, to share with you the information I've found, and to ask for your help in correcting it or adding to it.
If there is any similar thread on any site, that is TI specific, but not device model specific, please let me know.
I've seen and read through a number of mega-threads here and elsewhere that are device specific, but much of the information
contained therein is useful for all devices with TI FM chips.
The chips in question are usually named: WL1271, WL1273, WL1281 and WL1283. The first two have WF + BT + FM and the latter two add GPS.
TI also calls these WiLink or BlueLink 5.0, 6.0 and 7.0, as well as BRF6300, BRF6350 and BL6450.
TI also sells various evaluation boards carrying these chips, and some TI partners produce modules, sometimes with similar numbers.
AFAICT there is no FM functionality in some of the predecessor chips such as the WiLink 4.0 chips: BRF6100 (WL1251) & BRF6150 (WL1253).
Just so you better know my knowledge level:
- I'm new to Android, smartphones and post 1995 PDAs, although I've read some on these subjects over the years.
I'm diving straight in to learn as much as I can as quickly as I can. I'm not currently employed but hope to
transition myself to what appears to be the rapidly expanding Android world.
- I've worked in software development on "semi-embedded" Linux VOIP and security appliances since 1997, with a good bit
of low level kernel/driver stuff. Not much low level stuff recently, mostly daemons and command line utilities.
At home I've recently worked on a home Asterisk VOIP box and MythTv and XBMC based HTPCs. I also manage the 5 Ubuntu
PCs our family uses, as well as one lonely 5 year old HP WinXp tablet.
- My background in electronics and computing goes back to the mid 1970's with 8080 and SCMP. I designed and built a variety
of computer, electronics and even RF devices in those days, and can still wield a mean soldering pencil when needed.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is some information about which chips being discussed here. Note that the terms BlueLink and WiLink can be somewhat confusing as some chips are both.
TI's Wireless Connectivity Solutions page:
http://focus.ti.com/general/docs/wt...lateId=6123&navigationId=12493&contentId=4637
Note at left that GPS (NaviLink), Bluetooth (BlueLink) and Wireless (WiLink) are represented.
FM radio seems to be the neglected "step child" that gets little mention or notice.
It's a small add-on feature that just happens to come along with Bluetooth sometimes, if at all.
Generally, the WiFi, BT, FM and GPS components in these multi-function chips tend to be independent of each other.
They can be powered up or down individually and usually have seperate control paths. They are called "IP"s, eg.
the WiFi IP or BT IP. I haven't yet determined what IP stands for, LOL.
FM is the exception though; it seems to piggyback on the BT IP. To power up FM you must first power up BT
(although some doc implied BT can then be powered down). FM has it's own I2C control path, but that is usually
not used, in favor of sharing the BT HCI interface.
Some docs I've read discourage the use of FM. Perhaps it can cause issues ?
Note that some of these chips may indicate support for Wireless-N, but that doesn't mean the device manufacturer
enabled it in their stack etc. It might be possible to enable N, perhaps with different Wireless firmware or init
scripts. While an interesting prospect, despite the expectation of vastly increased battery consumption, I don't
want to get into the Wireless issues, except as they might impact FM.

Sources
Sources
The source of information I've found include:
- Documents from TI or customers. Usually these contain limited information.
- Source code from TI, TI's customers or other parties, including ROM builders.
- Threads/Posts on forums including this one, as well as TI support forums.
- Miscellaneous random sources such as IRC logs for HTC-Linux.
The most comprehensive and easily useful sources I've found so far are the source codes
for a Linux WL1271 driver being produced by a Nokia employee, and somewhat similar
source codes from TI.
The "Texas Instruments WL1273 FM radio" Linux driver is under development by Matti J. Aaltonen
of Nokia. I believe the Nokia N900 uses a TI chip under Maemo->Meego, and perhaps other Nokia
devices too. Various patches and discussions are underway, and can be googled, and parts of it
are slowly appearing in the latest kernel source. If you want to see the latest, the only easy way
seems to be downloading one of the latest kernels at https://lkml.org/ .
There's an ancient first version from and some discussion from April here:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.video-input-infrastructure/18449
I used http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.37.tar.bz2 and
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/patch-2.6.37.bz2 but I see there's a 2.6.38 RC5
there as well.
Finding and downloading TI code has been a pain, but they have a lot there.
TI WL 128x FM V4L2 driver:
There's a git repository for what appears to be an alternate V4L driver at http://dev.omapzoom.org/pub/scm/manju/L24x-btfm.git
Some discussion: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-media/msg28310.html
I'm not sure why there appear to be two efforts underway to create FM V4L2 drivers, the one by Nokia and the other by TI.
This appears to be source for TI's fmapp test utility and fm_stack library in a form that can be viewed by browser:
http://git.omapzoom.org/?p=platform...2a9dcca2dced00e724a2eb1dec578152f5beb;hb=HEAD
I managed to download the older 0.12 version of fmapp and fm_stack source code from somewhere, but can't recall where.
The "fmapp" utility has a LOT of functionality for testing just about every exposed FM feature, including RDS.
There is also a recently released "Android Froyo DevKit V2" at:
http://software-dl.ti.com/dsps/dsps_public_sw/sdo_tii/TI_Android_DevKit/02_00_00/index_FDS.html
You have to sign in for that but it should be easy to create an account. I already had one via a previous TI adventure.

Devices
List of devices and FM chips. At this time I'd like to limit this to Android devices, but might consider others.
Would be useful to list limitations here. For example, some Motorola Droid owners were understandably disheartened,
after much work, to find they had no Fm Rx antenna connection, and could not make one without opening up the cans, etc.
on the board. So technically they had Fm Rx, practically, they had none.
Also, some boards may have no Tx antenna, but might possibly work within a few inches of an external FM receiver antenna.

FM Apps and APIs
FM Apps and APIs
Many handset manufacturers provide their own proprietary FM radio apps. Some people have managed to get an
FM radio app meant for another device working on theirs. Most, however, have library or other issues with a foreign app.
AFAICT, Google has not released any sanctioned FM radio API, nor do they intend to. I'd guess FM radio likely
won't bring much revenue to Google or the carriers.
In an ideal world, Android apps would use the same API as on Linux: the "Video For Linux version Two" aka V4L2.
This API makes use of a /dev/radioX device. This is somewhat similar to the /dev/videoX devices that some devices
appear to support for cameras.
If the V4L2 API was available on Android, Android FM radio apps could then be ported more easily from Linux.
Alas, there are relatively few Linux radio apps. GnomeRadio hasn't been touched in over 2 years and Gnome
doesn't run on Android anyway of course. Some command line apps could be ported, but that doesn't make for
an Android app.
So thus far, the defacto "API" for FM radio on Android has been vendor specific commands over HCI, the
Bluetooth interface. This is more or less similar to the way it can be done via I2C, but apparently
most FM chips are not wired via 12C; they use the existing HCI UART. Once again, FM radio is the
poor neglected "step-child".
One advantage of using HCI is that no new kernel drivers are needed. A disadvantage is that some mediation
driver would be required to use bluetooth and FM at the same time; the only alternative being drivers for
both smashed together, but that would be an Android specific hack and is not a good idea.
I've noted that one individual created an API spec and an app for Windows devices a few years back.
I believe it was called GFMRadio and XFMRadio or similar. That project was apparently abandoned.
MIUI released a GPL licensed FM app for some phones based on broadcom chips; HTC Desire and Nexus One.
The source code contains the string "/dev/radio", but AFAICT it doesn't appear to actually use V4L API.
It speaks directly to the broadcom FM chip via HCI.
Since MIUI source is GPL and available it could be used as a base for a TI, or TI and broadcom specific app.
In theory patches could be submitted to MIUI but I'm not sure they are open to that and the language barrier
from English to Chinese and back may be difficult.
Some interesting posts on MIUI here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=837691
http://www.miui.com/thread-1687-1-1.html
Using hcitool commands, or similar, one could write a radio app in bash or Perl etc. LOL.
TI has an "fmapp" command line testing utility that relies on libfm_stack.so .
This app won't run on my Legend because it depends on snd_ctl_* APIs in libaudio.
"strings libfm_stack.so" produces lots of interesting detail and embedded BTS scripts.
The source code I've found for TI fmapp, and it's FM stack library does not seem to have all
the functionality I've seen in the binary fmapp I found. So they may have stripped much code
for the publicly released source code.
Audio routing
Audio routing
On HTC phones, FM analog audio routing can be achieved by:
# Default
adb shell 'echo "disable" > /sys/class/htc_accessory/fm/flag'
# Headset
adb shell 'echo "fm_headset" > /sys/class/htc_accessory/fm/flag'
# Speaker
adb shell 'echo "fm_speaker" > /sys/class/htc_accessory/fm/flag'
# View
adb shell cat /sys/class/htc_accessory/fm/flag

Firmware, TI BTS file, HCI and I2S/I2C issues, tools etc.
The Nokia V4L driver loads radio-wl1273-fw.bin, although the code does indicate it may not be necessary.
I can't find this firmware file anywhere. As with many other firmwares, it may simply be a known firmware
file renamed. This has been noted with other firmware files for the TI radio.
Information on firmware for these TI chips seems scattered and incomplete. Same with the BTS Bluetooth script files
which are usually important for accessing the FM functionality.
I think one of the reasons for this lack of information is that most parties do not want us messing with the available functionality.
- Device manufacturers do not want their devices used in violation of FCC or other regulatory body rules.
For example, FM transmission at higher power levels or improper frequencies. Also RDS transmissions with bogus data.
- Device manufacturers and carriers want us to buy newer or more expensive products for additional functionality.
They also would rather we use voice minutes instead of FM "walkie talkies".
- Google and carriers want us to stream music via data rather than pick it up for free from over the air.

I think you are doing an awsome job and I really hope that you'll succeded. But the reason why I'm writing this post is to get this thread on the first page again for a while, so maybe more developers will see it, and can contribute !
Good luck!
EDIT: Perhaps it just needs more outstandig title, maybe Unviersal FM radio for android devices with TI WL chips, or something that would get people to read it.

It's already off the first page, LOL.
My plan has been to post a link to this thread in the various existing threads for different devices using the TI FM chips. I'm sure that will get this thread some notice. I think a lot of devs and dev types stick to the forums for their devices and don't look at this general section.
At least there are so many potentially matching keywords in the first 10 posts that google searches on the subject are likely to link here.
I agonized over the thread title name for some time and "TI FM Radio" is best description I could think of, technically at least. I don't know if I can rename the thread, but it might help to put the names of popular devices with TI chips in the title.
As I posted on the Legend thread, I now have an App Inventor app up and running with functionality to tune, scan, change volume and see signal strength. The audio routing is the last major piece of the puzzle, but it may be different on different devices.
I'll spend a few more days at most to try and get audio routing working, and then, whether working or not, I'll post in a few threads looking for further info and people who want to try the app I'm building.
Would be nice to see the RDS and transmitter working soon too.
Regarding merging the bluetooth and FM drivers, TI's solution appears to be what they call a shared transport line discipline driver. The way this should work, each driver has what appears to it to be dedicated access to it's respective core, and the line discipline driver takes care of any queueing or delaying of commands & such that has to happen to keep them from stepping on each others toes.
Oh, and "IP" is "Intellectual Property" in this case. So the core, generally you'd say the WL127x has a wifi core, bluetooth core, etc. and 128x has a gps core as well. An IP core uses a description language (it used to be VHDL) to describe the layout of the core, so for instance if a company wants to build wifi onto their own chip, they can buy use of the IP core from TI instead of having to buy a phyiscal chip and interface to it.
I've got a debian install wedged onto my Droid 2 Global, I'm going to look into the "ti-st" V4L2 FM drivers, and see if I can get a module that will insert. The kernel can't be replaced on D2G yet, but as far as I know if I get a 2.6.32.9 kernel tree, and get ti-st driver to compile under it, I don't see why it shouldn't insert as a module just fine. Also, I'll look REAL closely to see if I can discern how it gets audio out, so I might have an hcitool command or two to add if that pans out.

Thanks for the info hwertz .
OK I understand "IP" now; never heard it used in that way to designate blocks on a chip.
Yes I read something about the line discipline. Some block diagrams: http://omappedia.org/wiki/Wilink_ST
If you know of any HCI commands dealing with audio routing, please post or pm whatever info you can share.
So I'd guess your opinion is that the v4l2 api is the best route to support FM radios on Android ? That was among my first thoughts until I saw that there is currently virtually no such support on any Android ROM I've heard of. HCI seems to work fine, but it requires chip specific commands of course.
Clearly though, at least Nokia and TI both are working on efforts to bring V4L2 apis for the TI chip in the embedded linux or Android environments.
I'm not sure how audio routing would be configured on Android when using v4l2 apis. The PC environment requires moving digital data from source to destination. But SOC devices often can move digital or analog data directly and without software support.
FM Transmitting Radius
So I hope this question is not too basic for this forum, but I'm new to it and wonder how large the FM transmitting radius of such a chip might be. I basically just need to get an idea, but of course I'd also be thankful if you can refer me to all sorts of literature, specs, overviews, etc.
Thanks!

This thread is over 2 years old now. The original purpose was to try and find others interested in sharing the undocumented secrets of TI's FM chip.
But after my info dump, nobody showed up to share with me, and likely nobody will, so I will close it after this post.
Any further discussion about FM can move to the Spirit FM thread in my sig.
These chips put out tiny amounts of power in transmit mode, maybe 10-30 milliwatts or so. The only phones I have that transmit have to have their headset cable antenna wrapped around the receiver antenna to get anything resembling decent quality.
So I'd call the transmit radius a few centimetres at most. Little wonder then, perhaps, why so few Android devices support transmit.

debugger
Debugger - debugging tool due to lack of log. You can view the result in ONLINE. You can "ON THE FLY" ... take snapshots directly from the cab.
Debugger You can use one or all of three ways at once.
*#
Call in the right place at the right time ... and save the data
If the variable Global - transferred to the "name", or simply herself. The number of input parameters is not limited.
Example
var1 = "hello"
local var2 = 8
t = {2,5, { "Bonnie Parker", "Clyde Barrow"}}
VW_Debugger ( "-------------------------------",
"Hex (var1)", - var1 must be GLOBAL
var1, var2, "t", "-------------------------------")
The result in the ... / lm_DebugToList.txt:
Variable # 1 = -------------------------------
Variable # 2 = 68 | 65 | 6C | 6C | 6F |
Variable # 2 = h | e | l | l | o |
Variable # 3 = hello
Variable # 4 = 8
t = {
[1] = 2,
[2] = 5,
Table # 3 = {
[1] = Bonnie Parker,
[2] = Clyde Barrow,
}
.
}
Variable # 6 = -------------------------------
*#
Enter code snippet ONLINE
Enter the line of code as you write in the body of the program.
Example
return hex (Help)
The results are on the screen and a file.
*#
Complex. But requires some setup allows to get a snapshot at any time
For this purpose has already been declared a global table VW_Debugger_Table and the following structure is used:
Example:
hook_DebugSnapshot: register (function ()
****UX_Name = "<name of your utilities>" --osoboe attention. Utility field
****VW_Debugger_Table.v_integer = v_integer - your variable
****VW_Debugger_Table.v_char = v_char --Your variable
****VW_Debugger_Table.v_table = v_table --Your variable
end)
It is desirable to place at the end of your utility body.
In other words - you need to put in your section (lua chunk) here such fragments, which will ensure the filling of the table
you desired variables. The process you manage yourself using SnapShot keys
I note that the third method does not require cleaning after the source code debugging. This tool can be left in the body of the program.
It can be activated at any time by pressing the button or VW_Debugger_Get_Snapshot () of the body of the program and does not interfere with the functionality of standard code.
All results are displayed on the screen and are available in /save/profile/01/userlist/lm_DebugToList.txt ... unless of course you do not erase.

Hi there. working igo 8 would be interested. samsung s8 phone. I would like a link. Thanks
All credits go to:
Hentacler for making Sparkle
Meefik for making Linux Deploy
Now on to the tutorial!
Requirements:
Sparkle
Linux Deploy
Termux
Now you have all those apps installed lets continue
Open Termux then enter:
Code:
su
Once in root mode enter:
Code:
setenforce 0
Then exit:
Code:
exit
Open Linux Deploy and configure it to your likings
My configuration:
Code:
Distribution: Debian
Architecture: arm64
Distribution Suite: ubstable
-
Installation type: File
-
Image size: 32GB
Then set your username and password, for this tutorial I set my username to:
Code:
android
And im not gonna tell you my password
After you've set up your configuration scroll down and configure init, mounts and ssh
INIT:
Code:
Enable: On
Init system: run-parts
Init settings:
- Init path: /etc/rc.local
- Init user: android
- Async: Disabled
MOUNTS:
Code:
Enable: On
Mount points:
- /data/data/com.sion.sparkle/files - /sparkle
SSH:
Code:
Enable: On
SSH settings:
- Port: 22
- SSH options:
Now you've set this all up go back to the main overview screen of Linux Deploy, hit the tripple dot menu and install!
After the install is done, hit START
Now open Termux and install SSH:
Code:
pkg install openssh
then connect to linux via SSH: (username is the username set in Linux Deploy)
Code:
ssh [email protected]
Now you've connected you need to install some packages:
Code:
sudo apt install weston
sudo apt install xwayland
sudo apt install nano
sudo apt install dbus-x11
Also install your desktop environment of choice, for this tutorial im going with KDE:
Code:
sudo apt install kde-full
Once everything is done installing you need to configure some scripts:
Code:
nano sparkle.sh
Now paste this: (make sure to change "startplasma-x11" to your preferred DE, if you're also using KDE then you don't need to change anything)
Code:
#!/bin/bash
set -e
sudo chmod 777 /sparkle
sudo chmod 777 /sparkle/wayland-0
XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/sparkle Xwayland &
sleep 1
export DISPLAY=:0
startplasma-x11
Now open Sparkle and click "edit user.sh" and delete everything then hit "save", Go back to the main screen of Sparkle and hit "Start", you should see a notification appear in your status bar
Now to start everything go back to Termux and assuming you're still SSH'ed into Linux type:
Code:
sh sparkle.sh
and enjoy!
Bonus step:
If you want everything to automatically start when pressing "START" in Linux Deploy than you can configure this
Open Termux and connect to Linux via SSH and change the permissions/edit the rc.local file: (edit username to the username set in Linux Deploy)
Code:
sudo chmod +x /etc/rc.local
sudo chmod +x /home/username/sparkle.sh
sudo nano /etc/rc.local
In nano paste: (once again change username to the username in Linux Deploy
Code:
#!/bin/sh -e
#
# rc.local
#
# This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel.
# Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other
# value on error.
#
# In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution
# bits.
#
# By default this script does nothing.
/home/username/sparkle.sh
exit 0
Now every time you want to use Linux just open Sparkle, hit "Start", then go to Linux Deploy and start linux and your DE will automatically load up on your screen without entering a single command!
Unfortunately, this method doesn't give hardware 3d acceleration. Just very slow software emulation. It is much harder or even not possible to achieve true acceleration on android handhelds.
Hi
What version of Sparkle did you use? I've tried this tutorial here but received an error of wayland-0 not found when I try to run my linux installation on my device
I've looked in the folder /data/data/com.sion.sparkle/files and this folder is empty
Thanks for the tutorial!
Got any images or a video you can share?
It works
I managed to use it, but with xfce KDE had a black screen, and I couldn't use the audio even though I made the alsa plugin, and it doesn't rotate the screen, but it's very good.
I have One Plus 8 pro.
So my results with this software 3D acceleration are that the performance really suck but its amazing for now because you need this basic aceleration in almost everything i can now render videos on my phone in kdenlive and the phone has kinda good cpu performace so there is no problem basicly i can now run in this chroot everything that can be runned on raspi and i am also messing around with BOX86 which is a hardware translation of arm to x86 architectures so far i can run x86 apps for linux inside the chroot and now with this little tool i can maybe get wine x86 runnig which means windows apps support on android yeeey of course with this low performace of a gpu i could at best try games before year 2000 and maybe if they start up have some good fps but i highly doubt that because raspi has problem runnig (in twister os) even unreal tournament and raspi has 5 to 6 times higher performance than this software accel.
Benchmarks i did were glxgears i got anywere from 200 to 270 fps which is not really much
Also I used 2 desktop config started the one thats build in vnc from the app and then started sparkle connected to it and had second desktop start up using lxde on my phone on phone the screen really sucks to to work with so i used scrcpy to mirror the screen of phone to pc so basicaly a have full control remotly i hope that this will have future version development to improve on code so that we could get more performace out of this.

I am using LXDE with Sparkle. I would like a lower screen resolution, all things look so small. I can do that with XSDL, how in Sparkle?
@HolyChickenGuy
Thanks for the well done tutorial ! I followed it and it worked out of the box.
However, two issues I came accross to which I did not find the solution, yet:
1. Is there a way to rotate the screen ?
2. How can I bring the X-window to the second screen connected via USB->HDMI adapter ? I tried to set DISPLAY:1 but 1 was not found and :0 is the devices screen.
Cheers mate and keep up the good work.
You can Also use Termux Desktop
Termux desktop is much faster and easier to use and you can experience a complete Linux GUI with termux, and it Is also lightwight.

The described way basically is using Termux the way you propose. However it adds the 3D acceleration by using sparkle which is definitely a plus.

Okay, rotating the screen is done by rotating Termux BEFORE you start the windowmanager.
But - for bringing it up on the external monitor I haven't not found the trick, yet
lower resolution in Sparkle app? relative mouse is possible?
but what if i want to install LXQt on my device
#!/bin/bash
set -e
sudo chmod 777 /sparkle
sudo chmod 777 /sparkle/wayland-0
XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/sparkle Xwayland &
sleep 1
export DISPLAY=:0
startplasma-x11
what should i change in the script??????
sorry for the probably dumb question but Xsdl seems to work work quite well in my use cases (like watching youtube videos in 360p on my Samsung Tab S5e) ...
... so I am wondering : what are the advantages of Sparkle/Wayland over Xsdl ?? ... will my youtube videos be smoother ??
... does Sparkle/Wayland has better touch support than Xsdl ?? ... for example can you scroll a web browser window by touching inside the window (not the scrollbar) with your finger ??

you sure can get 1080 on a tab s5e with xsdl...
sparkle app is for sure more lightweight but in some situatons xsdl is better, at least with some games, at least with my experience
did you compile and use the android-shmem library?

wow 1080 ! that would be awesome ! thanks for the info !!
actually 360p is not so smooth on my S5e without android-shmem library ...
if I understand correctly I just have to compile that in my chroot and then the shared memory feature is already supported in the Xserver xsdl that I installed from the playstore ??
thanks again !!

android-shmem library can give you a performance boost if the application you are running can use the x server MIT-SHM extension
For video playback in a web browser, firefox-esr for example, the android-shm library will not give you any performance gain...
Since there is no hardware acceleration in xsdl, In order to put the minimum possible load on the cpu you should match the screen resolution of the xserver with the target max resolution of the videos you are planning to playback.
My tab s6 has 2560x1600 native resolution, i run the xserver at 1920x1200 so I keep the aspect ratio of the screen but match the clip (tube video) native resolution (so that no rescaling will happen)
I can get acceptable youtube video playback also on my old pixelc c, that has a quadcore a57
well I don't know what I did wrong previously ... my youtube videos seem to play nice on 1080 in Xserver xsdl with arm64 vivaldi in my chroot (Tab S5e) with or without
