Hi, I'm using ptxdist for a iMx27 based board.
The iMx27 VPU provides hardware accelerators for video coding/decoding. Unfortunatly, with ptxdist, the gstreamer plugin is incomplete : gst-inspect |grep mfw mfw_vpuencoder: mfw_vpuencoder: Freescale: Hardware (VPU) Encoder With Freescale SDK, gst-inspect gives (seen in Freescale documentation): gst-inspect | grep mfw mfw_mp4demuxer: mfw_mp4demuxer: freescale-mp4 demuxer plugin mfw_avidemuxer: mfw_avidemuxer: FSL Avi Demuxer mfw_vpuencoder: mfw_vpuencoder: Freescale: Hardware (VPU) Encoder mfw_vpudecoder: mfw_vpudecoder: Freescale: Hardware (VPU) Decoder mfw_v4lsrc: mfw_v4lsrc: Freescale Video Source plug-in mfw_v4lsink: mfw_v4lsink: v4l_sink It seems that ptxdist use : gst-plugins-fsl-vpu-0.1.0.tar.bz2 And Freescale SDK use : gst-mx27-vpu-video-1.2.tar.gz The freescale SDK can be downloaded for free on their website, you just need to give your email and filter the spam they send ;-) Did someone already done this version change in ptxdist ? It it hard to do ? I'm not really familiar with ptxdist, nor with gstreamer plugins. Regards Stephane -- Stephane List http://slist.lilotux.net -- ptxdist mailing list [email protected]
