Ryan,

All audio decoders are software-based. There is no audio hardware decoder block on i.mx.

About the missing mfw_aacdecoder, maybe it is license related? Maybe someone at meta-fsl-arm would be in a better position to confirm about the missing plugin.

Re: GStreamer i.MX6 Decoding

Hi Fabio,

At one point I have seen:

aacdec.imx:  mfw_aacdecoder: aac audio decoder

However, I do not see this in the most recent 3.10.17 release on the MCIMX6Q-SDB board.

Can you help clarify why the mfw_aacdecoder is missing, and if this was in fact a hardware decoder?

Thank you,

Ryan

There is no audio hardware decoder on i.mx.

Re: GStreamer i.MX6 Decoding

Hello, is beepdec a hardware decoder? If not, what hardware decoding can I use?

Thank you,

Ryan

Re: GStreamer i.MX6 Decoding

Gautham, what is 'trick play mode'? Can you try seeking using gplay? Does the latter produce the same errros?

Re: GStreamer i.MX6 Decoding

Hello,

Working on iMX6 target.

I am trying to play a video file using gst pipeline "gst-launch playbin2 uri=file://", video and audio is fine until when I try to use trick play mode to seek to stream forward/backward for about xx seconds. What I see in the  vpudec and aiurdemux gstreamer plugin is that some error states like "GST_FLOW_WRONG_STATE" are ignored during trick play handling i.e. in gst_vpudec_chain function and in aiurdemux_push_pad_buffer. Please let me know why these event types are ignored or the reason for it. Thank you.
