Multiple Display Support for imx8qxpmek

muhammed_ali — Fri, 28 Dec 2018 12:51:41 GMT

Hi,

We have imx8qxpmek board hear, and we installed fsl-image-qt5-validation-imx(4.9.88_2.2.0_8qxp_beta2) image on that board. We need to display the qt applications on multiple Display. we connected two HDMI Displays connected on LVDS/MIPI ports and getting Xwayland display. we need to run separate Qt application on each display, But we couldn't able to select the display separately. could you please help on this ?.

We have already tried exporting DISPLAY parameter on console and we are able to display Qt sample application on display connected to LVDS1 interface until reboot, we follow the same steps after reboot/power off but we couldn't able to display Qt application on LVDS1 interface as before.

Hi Joan Xie,

We have Two HDMI Displays each of them connected to imx8qxpmek LVDS/DSI Port through ADV7535 bridge(LVDS to HDMI Converter). We did not set any uboot command. We gone through the documents but we couldn't find anything regarding uboot settings for multiple display. If there is any uboot command settings is needed please let us know.

We are using fsl-image-qt5-validation-imx image. we are using fsl-imx8qxp-mek.dtb as the fdt file.

We Could able to get Xwayland display on both the HDMI Display connected on LVDS0 and LVDS1 interfaces as mentioned earlier. the problem we are facing is to display different applications on two different displays. For Example: video playing on one display and qt application running on another display or two different video playing on two different displays

refer to the known issue in the relase note of 4.9.88_2.2.0_8qxp_beta2:

Multi-instance playback and record are not supported.

but I checked L4.14.78-1.0.0_ga, I don't find this issue, so could you test L4.14.78-1.0.0_ga version?

The command line to play two videos on different displays might look like this:
$GSTL $PLAYBIN uri=file:///$file1 playbin uri=file:///$file2 video-sink="overlaysink
display-master=false display-slave=true"
