No Support for H.264 Encoder and MJPEG(Encoder & Decoder) in IMX multimedia Codec Library

adityanagal — Mon, 26 Dec 2016 11:21:19 GMT

Hi ,

I am working on the IMX6 solo based platform and using IMX Multimedia Codec library (imx-codec-4.0.9) , but it seems this library does not support H.264 encoding and MJPEG encoding & decoding. API document for H.264 encoding and MJPEG encoding & decoding is missing in the docs folder . Does this library supports these codecs , otherwise

how to implement encoder for H.264 and encoder and decoder for MJPEG.

Regards,

Aditya Nagal

Hi Aditya,

Have you tried the VPU unit test? In images generated by NXP BSP, the VPU unit test is located at /unit_tests/mxc_vpu_test.out. It can encode and decode the formats you need. If you have problems, please let me know.

Best regards,

Rogerio

Hi Aditya

please check attached Release Notes sect.6.5 Multimedia feature matrix, included in each bsp documentation

package from below link

http://www.nxp.com/products/microcontrollers-and-processors/arm-processors/i.mx-applications-processors/i.mx-6-processors/i.mx6qp/i.mx-6-series-software-and-development-tool-resources:IMX6_SW

Note, not all i.MX processors have vpu so one needs to check chip full part number.

Best regards
