Qtopia Qt Extended, formerly known as Qtopia until September 30, 2008, is an application platform for Embedded Linux-based mobile computing devices such as personal digital assistants, mobile phones, and web pads. It is being developed by Qt Software, a subsidiary of Nokia. [Source: http://en.wikipedia.org] Qt Software discontinues Qt Extended March 3, 2009 — Oslo, Norway — Qt Software today announced that the product, Qt Extended, will be discontinued as a stand-alone product. Instead, selected features will be migrated into the Qt framework which will result in Qt becoming an even richer, cross-platform application framework. The final release of Qt Extended will be version 4.4.3, which will is planned for release on March 5, 2009. Qt Extended will be maintained for one year from that date. Qt Software will honor all existing support agreements, and for customers who need continued access to support beyond the term of their current agreement, Qt Software is offering the possibility of purchasing supplemental support. [Source: http://www.qtsoftware.com/about/news/qt-software-discontinues-qt-extended] Compiling Qtopia Crosscompiling Qtopia for i.MX processors requires some packages to be installed on host (PC). For more details click on your host PC Linux distribution below: All Boards Qtopia All Boards Qtopia on Ubuntu It's possible to compile Qtopia (version 2 or 4) by selecting Qtopia on package list or simply selecting Qtopia profile on Ltib configuration. Starting Qtopia Touchscreen setup When the system starts up, TSLIB_TSDEVICE environment variable must be set and ts_calibration application must be called to calibrate the touchscreen. $export TSLIB_TSDEVICE=/dev/input/event1 /dev/input/event1 is the usual touchscreen device. Some systems can address the touchscreen device to other names. It's possible to check what's the touchscreen device by typing: $cat /dev/input/<supposed device> After the command above, when touchscreen is pressed, some characters will be showed indicating that the <supposed device> device is the touchscreen device and it's working properly. $ts_calibrate Calibrate screen will appear. After touchscreen calibration, Qtopia can be executed by calling the following script: $/etc/rc.d/init.d/qtopia start Qtopia will be started.

1. Enable QtMultimedia 1) In “source/meta-qt5/recipes-qt/qt5/qtmultimedia_git.bb”, add “gstreamer” at the end of “PACKAGECONFIG ??=” .      For example on  L3.14.52  bsp, build  x11  backend: PACKAGECONFIG ??= "${@bb.utils.contains('DISTRO_FEATURES', 'alsa', 'alsa', '', d)} \                    ${@bb.utils.contains('DISTRO_FEATURES', 'pulseaudio', 'pulseaudio', '', d)} \                    gstreamer" 2) Build qtmultimedia:  bitbake qtmultimedia 3) Copy the built package to target file system.      For example : cp  -a ./build-x11/tmp/work/cortexa9hf-vfp-neon-poky-linux-gnueabi/qtmultimedia/5.5.0+gitAUTOINC+46a83d5b86-r0/image/usr/   /usr   export  DISPLAY=:0 Video example application located at : /usr/share/qt5/examples/multimedia/video/qmlvideo 2. Enable Qt Logging Info export  QT_LOGGING_RULES=<category>[.type]=ture|false      For example: Turn on all debug logging:      export QT_LOGGING_RULES=*.debug=true Turn on all logging level of all multimedia module:      export QT_LOGGING_RULES=qt.multimedia.*=true 3. Performance Checking Gstreamer: overlaysink fps=51.585      gst-launch-1.0 playbin uri=file:///H264_AVC_1080p_30fps_27Mbps_mp3.avi  video-sink=”overlaysink sync=false” Gstreamer: glimagesink fps=43.850      gst-launch-1.0 playbin uri=file:///H264_AVC_1080p_30fps_27Mbps_mp3.avi video-sink="glimagesink sync=false" Qtmultimedia: fps=45.201      ./qmlvideo  -url file:///H264_AVC_1080p_30fps_27Mbps_mp3.avi -hide-perf Current qt5 multimedia has a special video node for imx6 at     "/src/plugins/videonode/imx6" which uses GPU DirectVIV to accelerate the video rendering. So  the rendering performance is almost same as the glimagesink. For check the free run frame rate, the qt multimedia source need change a little bit to set sink sync as false and calculate the real video rendering rate. Set sync as false: In "/src/plugins/gstreamer/mediaplayer/qgstreamerplayersession.cpp" QGstreamerPlayerSession::playbinNotifySource(): -       g_object_set(G_OBJECT(self->m_videoSink), "sync", !self->m_isLiveSource, NULL); +       g_object_set(G_OBJECT(self->m_videoSink), "sync", false/!self->m_isLiveSource/, NULL); Get fps: In "/src/gsttools/qgstvideorenderersink.cpp" +#include <QTime> +gint g_frame_showed; +QTime g_time; + bool QVideoSurfaceGstDelegate::start(GstCaps *caps) … +   g_frame_showed = 0; +   g_time.restart(); … void QVideoSurfaceGstDelegate::stop() … +   printf(">>>>> fps=%f:\n", (gdouble)g_frame_showed*1000/g_time.elapsed()); … bool  QVideoSurfaceGstDelegate::handleEvent(QMutexLocker *locker) …             const bool rendered = m_activeRenderer->present(m_surface, buffer); +   g_frame_showed++; … Or use the attached patch: qtmultimedia_fps_check.diff 4. Streaming Playing:  HTTP RTP RTSP HTTP: ./qmlvideo -url http://10.192.225.205/streaming/http/H264_HP13_1280x720_29_2850_AAC_LC_44_64_NobodyMTV.mp4 RTSP: ./qmlvideo -url rtsp://10.192.225.205/MPEG4_SP1_720x576_30fps_282_AMRNB_TVC.mp4 RTP: QT mediaplayer use gstreamer playbin as the backend, playbin don’t support rtp address as uri. So QT mediaplayer can’t support RTP playing directly. 5. Audio Recording /usr/share/qt5/examples/multimedia/audiorecorder/audiorecorder This is a widget application, not a QML application. It use QAudioRecorder as its background worker. By default it will use pulsesrc and lamemp3enc to recorder audio as mkv file at user home folder with name of clip_0001.mkv, clip_0002.mkv, and so on. If need special pipeline for recording, example use imxmp3enc to record mp3 files, we need change the function GstElement *QGstreamerCaptureSession::buildEncodeBin in  “src/plugins/gstreamer/mediacapture/qgstreamercapturesession.cpp” as well as QGstreamerMediaContainerControl(QObject *parent) in “src/plugins/gstreamer/mediacapture/qgstreamermediacontainercontrol.cpp” 6. Camera Widgets Application: “/usr/share/qt5/examples/multimediawidgets/camera/camera” QML Application: “/usr/share/qt5/examples/multimedia/declarative-camera/declarative-camera” Qt Multimedia has some bugs on L3.14.52 with QCamera for recording. Use the attached patches: 0001-gstreamer-fix-camerabin-not-negotiated-error.patch 0001-QCamera-can-t-set-recording-container-format-video-a.patch 0002-QtCamera-change-default-encoding-parameters-to-use-N.patch If you want use overlaysink as the preview sink, then use following patch: 0003-use-overlaysink-as-the-preview-sink.patch Both applications need to set environment variable QT_GSTREAMER_CAMERABIN_VIDEOSRC to use imxv4l2src If camera device is other than /dev/video0, set environment variable QT_GSTREAMER_CAMERABIN_VIDEOSRC_DEVICE to the right camera device, such as "/dev/video1" ,  for example: export QT_GSTREAMER_CAMERABIN_VIDEOSRC=imxv4l2src export DISPLAY=:0 export QT_GSTREAMER_CAMERABIN_VIDEOSRC_DEVICE="/dev/video1" By default, the “post-preview” feature of camerabin was disabled by the patches provided, since the imxv4l2src can’t work with “post-preview” internal “videoconvert” element. To enable “post-preview”  feature, one need uncomment following line //g_object_set(G_OBJECT(m_camerabin), POST_PREVIEWS_PROPERTY, TRUE, NULL); in “/qtmultimedia/src/plugins/gstreamer/camerabin/camerabinsession.cpp”, Function: CameraBinSession::CameraBinSession(GstElementFactory *sourceFactory, QObject *parent) And Change “videoconvert” to “imxvideoconvert_g2d” or “imxvideoconvert_ipu” or “imxvideoconvert_pxp” in line : csp = gst_element_factory_make ("videoconvert", "preview-vconv"); of  file “/gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad/gst-libs/gst/basecamerabinsrc/gstcamerabinpreview.c”  function: GstCameraBinPreviewPipelineData *gst_camerabin_create_preview_pipeline (GstElement * element,   GstElement * filter)

This doc show: on i.MX6Q SabreSD board, configure ov5640 sensor(parallel or MIPI) output 5MP(2592x1944) RAW(Bayer) data at 15fps,and i.MX6Q IPU capture RAW RGB data, and i.MX6Q GPU debayer RAW data then display image. HW: i.MX6Q-SabreSD board, ov5640 sensor. SW: Linux 4.14.98_2.0.0 BSP, and patches in this doc. Configure at camera sensor side A Bayer filter is a color filter array (CFA) for arranging RGB color filters on a square grid of photosensors. The filter pattern is 50% green, 25% red and 25% blue, hence is also called BGGR, RGBG ,GRGB, or RGGB. The ov5640 has an image array capable of operating at up to 15 fps in 5 megapixel (2592x1944) resolution. OV5640 support output formats: RAW(Bayer), RGB565/555/444,CCIR656, YUV422/420, YCbCr422, and compression. To make ov5640 output 5MP RAW data at 15fps, check my patch imx6_ov5640_dvp_mipi_raw_capture_driver-4.14.98_2.0.0.diff which apply on i.MX Linux 4.14.98_2.0.0 BSP kernel code: Parallel interface ov5640, use ov5640_raw_setting[] array of drivers/media/platform/mxc/capture/ov5640.c. This register setting is come from ov5640 software application note and data sheet. MIPI interface ov5640, use ov5640_mipi_raw_setting[] array of drivers/media/platform/mxc/capture/ov5640_mipi.c. This register setting is combine setting of original code (remove ISP register setting), plus PLL register setting for MIPI interface, plus some data format register setting. Configure at i.MX6Q side The i.MX6Q IPU camera port(CSI-2 module) support data format include Raw(Bayer), RGB, YUV 4:4:4, YUV 4:2:2 and grayscale, up to 16 bits per value. Below is camera data routing for i.MX6Q:    Below is i.MX6Q IPU block daigram: The CSI-2 of IPU which is responsible for synchronizing and packing the video (or generic data) and sending it to other blocks. The video data received by CSI-2, could be sent to three other blocks: SMFC, VDI, IC. For RAW (Bayer) data capture, should go through path like this: CSI-2-->SMFC-->IDMAC-->DDR memory It means RAW data is received as generic data, see IPU_PIX_FMT_GENERIC in my patch, and IPU cannot process this kind data, it is just received to DDR memory. For MIPI interface camera, need note is i.MX6 side MIPI D-PHY clock must be calibrated to the actual clock range of the camera sensor’s D-PHY clock and the calibrated value must be equal to or greater than the camera sensor clock, detail see  AN5305. Take MIPI ov5640 as example: Pixel clock = 2592x1944x15fpsx(1/2 cycle/pixel)x1.35 blank interval = 51MHZ MIPI data rate = 51MHZ x 16 bit = 816Mb/s so 816/2/2*2 is 408MHZ is i.MX6 side D-PHY clock. Here due to one bayer pixel is 8bit, and i.MX6 MIPI data bus is 16 bit, so above use 1/2 cycle/pixel. And check ov5640_mipi_raw_setting[], you will got the sensor side D-PHY clock is about 672/2 = 336MHZ. And check AN5305, register MIPI_CSI2_PHY_TST_CTRL1 of i.MX6 need set as 0xC, but here i still keep it as default BSP value 0x14.   3.Capture test code I changed unit test mxc_v4l2_capture.c to capture the RAW data and save it to file. Check my patch imx6_ov5640_raw_captupre_test_4.14.98_2.0.0_ga.diff which apply on i.MX  Linux 4.14.98_2.0.0 BSP unit test code. Note the usage is: ./cap.out -c 1 -i 1 -fr 15 -m 6 -iw 2592 -ih 1944 -ow 2592 -oh 1944 -f BA81 -d /dev/video1 savefile.dmp parameter -i 1 means use CSI to MEM mode /dev/video1 is MIPI ov5640, /dev/video0 is parallel ov5640   4.Display RAW data The RAW data cannot be displayed directly, debayer process is needed to get complete red, green, blue color for each pixel. The debayer process if run on CPU, will cost much CPU time. To save CPU time, debayer could done by GPU. The method is, captured RAW data upload to GPU as texture , then GPU will do the debayer, then full color of each pixel will be got, then display it. To upload RAW camera data to GPU with zero memory copy, i will use i.MX6Q GPU extension GL_VIV_direct_texture. It create a texture with direct access support. API glTexDirectVIVMap,  which support mapping a user space memory or a physical address into the texture surface. The API glTexDirectVIVMap need logic and physical address of data buffer, so i will allocate data buffer from /dev/mxc_ipu, it is dma-buffer also get logic/physical address of buffer, then queue it as USERPTR to ipu v4l2 capture driver, after dequeue got RAW camera data, pass it to GPU for debayer. GPU side, I will use OpenGL shader code from "Efficient, High-Quality Bayer Demosaic Filtering on GPUs". Check my patch imx6-5640-debayer-testcode-gpusdk-5.2.0.diff which apply on i.MX GPU SDK 5.2.0 code. Note, here i only do is debayer, no extra process.   Known issue One thing is ov5640 output 5MP at 15fps, compare with output 5MP at 5fps, there are more noise of camera data at 15fps case. My debug found is , this noise seems come from ov5640 itself.   Reference: a>https://www.nxp.com/webapp/Download?colCode=IMX6DQRM b>https://www.nxp.com/webapp/Download?colCode=L4.14.98_2.0.0_MX6QDLSOLOX&appType=license c>https://github.com/NXPmicro/gtec-demo-framework d>https://www.nxp.com/docs/en/application-note/AN5305.pdf e>ov5640 data sheet f>ov5640 software application note g>Efficient, High-Quality Bayer Demosaic Filtering on GPUs https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/Efficient%2C-High-Quality-Bayer-Demosaic-Filtering-on-McGuire/088a2f47b7ab99c78d41623bdfaf4acdb02358fb

If someone wants to use the OpenGL ES 2.0 extension "GL_OES_vertex_array_object", the macro "GL_GLEXT_PROTOTYPES" must be defined in his program first. Then he can get the extension program location by calling the API eglGetProcAddress.  Here is an example to use this extension. #define GL_GLEXT_PROTOTYPES PFNGLGENVERTEXARRAYSOESPROC glGenVertexArraysOESv; PFNGLBINDVERTEXARRAYOESPROC glBindVertexArrayOESv; PFNGLDELETEVERTEXARRAYSOESPROC glDeleteVertexArraysOESv; glGenVertexArraysOESv = (PFNGLGENVERTEXARRAYSOESPROC)eglGetProcAddress ( "glGenVertexArraysOES" ); glBindVertexArrayOESv = (PFNGLBINDVERTEXARRAYOESPROC)eglGetProcAddress ( "glBindVertexArrayOES" ); glDeleteVertexArraysOESv = (PFNGLDELETEVERTEXARRAYSOESPROC)eglGetProcAddress ( "glDeleteVertexArraysOES" ); After these steps, the new alias glGenVertexArraysOESv, glBindVertexArrayOESv, glDeleteVertexArraysOESv can be use to call the VAO operation function in OpenGL ES 2.0 extensions.

Question: Is it true ture that MX6 VPU is capable of encoding dual H.264 streams that are 1024x600 at 60fps?  There are slides that claim three 720p30 streams or two 1080p30 streams simultaneously. There is little guidance as to what the VPU limits in resolution, frame rate and bit rate are for other resoluitons and frame rates. Is there any information that can be used to decide if  the VPU can encode an arbitrary video stream or multiple arbitrary video streams?  Since memory bandwidth will enter into this decision at some point has anyone quantified the memory bandwidth requirements verses video resolution and frame rate? Answer: Maximum supported trhoughput,  is 72,576,000 pixels /s @ VPU frecuency of 266 mhz 2 x  1024 x 600 x 60hz = 73,728,000 So this is not supported. If framerate is lower i.e.  30hz  then it will be supported.
