Hi,

Thanks for the information. To give more memory in the bootargs, I
tried to use less memory for the cmem pools. I want to know the exact
number of pools for my application (I use the h264 decoder). I see
that the cmem buffers needed by the decoder are described in SPRS544
in Table 7. It describes the sizes of the buffers, but not the amount.
How were the number of buffers for the default loadmodules.sh that
ships with the board determined?

Thanks,
Ramiro Polla
