Hi Jerry, Here is what you need: 1). DSP tool chain (available via purchasing DVSDK ($6995) or a license of CCS ($3600)) 2). DSPLink kernel module source (provided with DVEVM S/W) 3). CMEM kernel module (provided with DVEVM S/W) 4). Codec Engine (provided with DVEVM S/W) 5). Libraries for the codecs that you want to use The memory mapping in the DSPLink kernel modules needs to be modified and so the kernel module needs to be rebuilt. The DSPLink source is provided with the DVEVM S/W (you should have a dsplink_1_30_08_02 directory where you install the DVEVM S/W). The trickiest part of what you need to do, is getting the codec libraries so you can rebuild the codec servers. We do not provide these libraries with the DVSDK kit, just the prebuilt codec servers. Your best option here would be to get 60-day evaluation version of the libraries that you are interested in via our ASP (authorised software provider) network. Note that if you are planning to use any of these codecs you would eventually need to license them through one of our ASP. There are several ASPs available and you can view the ASPs on the following site, plus see which are available in your region: http://focus.ti.com/dsp/docs/dspsupporto.tsp?sectionId=3&tabId=1459 Also, if you go to the DVEVM-Update site there is information here on requesting evaluation versions of the codecs: https://www-a.ti.com/extranet/cm/product/dvevmsw/dspswext/general/homepa ge.shtml Jon _______________________________________________ Davinci-linux-open-source mailing list [email protected] http://linux.davincidsp.com/mailman/listinfo/davinci-linux-open-source
