Failed to build VPU (encoder/decoder) gstreamer plugins on IMX8

RobbieJiang — Mon, 14 Sep 2020 07:08:34 GMT

I'm trying to build rootfs with imx-gst1.0-plugins with VPU encoder/decoder support on MX8 / Yocto.

"bitbake imx-image-multimedia" cmd complete successfully,

but no vpu encoder / decoder plugins got built.

root@imx8qmmek:~# gst-inspect-1.0 | grep imx

Even with 'bitbake imx-gst1.0-plugin' cmd, still failed to get VPU encdoer / decoder built.

From the 'config.log' in 'tmp/work/aarch64-mx8-poky-linux/imx-gst1.0-plugin/4.5.1-r0/build',

it seems that some header files are missing...::

...

Am I missing any dependency library?

How to fix this problem and get VPU encoder / decoder plugins built?

what imx8 board and bsp version do you use?

Hi,

I'm experiencing the same issue with an Apalis IMX8 based board.

Is it supposed to work ?

Thanks.

Hi zyend,

Just make sure your kernel is configured with VPU (encoder/decoder) support.
