The VPU part could be because of missing firmware. Check if the vpu files are present in /lib/firmware. As for MP4, this is a known problem. You are building Chromium, not Chrome. MP4 support is part of the restricted feature set, which is included in Chrome but not Chromium. Try a WebM

As for the decoder itself: I implemented it in the Chromium media framework, in media/ . I simply took the vpx decoder code, copied it, and modified it to use the VPU. I had VP8, MPEG2, MPEG4, and h264 decoding working. It wasnt much code, but unfortunately, the interfaces tend to change

The Vivante libraries can map the physical buffers produced by the VPU directly, so they could do format conversion on their way to the graphics stack if the Chromium bindings have access to that (the single copy I referred to above). in my experience zero-copy really means zero memcpy()

hi everyone. i've cloned fsl-community-bsp-platform and created a master-next branch with the correct repo XML file to use master-next branch for all the meta-fsl-* repos and master for the rest. this makes building and testing master-next from scratch a bit easier. this was pretty trivial to do
