Tim,

We have tested gstreamer pipelines from the video source to the frame buffer sink without enconding/decoding on the middle and the latency is unnoticeable. You can probably modify the encode/decode demo to do not perform the encoding/decoding part and will get a lower latency.

Depending on the product requirements you can achieve zero-copy behavior by modifying the V4L2 driver to capture the CCD data straight to the memory address of the frame buffer, but that may complicate things for the recording process.

I am showing a viewing a live camera through the EncodeDecode demo and there seems to be ~1/3 second latency between live movement and screen display. This will be annoying to the user for my product. Has anyone found a way to reduce the perceived latency by displaying the incoming video directly without having to encode and decode it first, while still having overlay function?
