Did you mean OMAP5 interface? The last I looked, OMAP5 support wasn¹t complete and as you know I¹ve been pushing for RPMSG/REMOTEPROC support on this processor and the only feedback I received was that support wasn¹t going to happened anytime soon. To me, RPMSG/REMOTEPROC and SGX should be on TI¹s high priority list or as Maxim said, this processor will end up just like the DM3730; great processor without any ability to use all the features. BTW, I believe IPC3.x is SYSLINK3 which is RPMSG. Once we have RPMSG/REMOTEPROC, all the video encoding/decoding together with codecs etc should pretty simple for TI to add and that would make this a fantastic product.
