I'm looking for a resolution for "Build failed" issue and how to configure it and compile it correctly?

Hi Erik

in general for gstreamer-imx with ubuntu one can look at BD resources

i.MX6 Video acceleration on Ubuntu Raring (and Debian) - Boundary Devices

There are 2 separate plugin's : community gstreamer-imx plugins and
nxp gstreamer plugins (fsl-gst-plugin package). First supported by community, may be posted

on meta-fsl-arm mailing list, so that someone familiar with that version could try to assist you

https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/meta-freescale

Nxp gstreamer plugins are described in nxp bsp documentation:

http://www.nxp.com/webapp/Download?colCode=L4.1.15_1.2.0_LINUX_DOCS&Parent_nodeId=1337699481071706174845&Parent_pageType…

Also may be useful to check other gstreamer-imx usage links:
