ADV7180 driver for IMX6

Hi,


I am trying to use gstreamer with hardware acceleration from IMX core with phyflex-imx6-4 and a proprietary board.

The camera I use is the KPC-HD30MB.

I built yocto yogurt distribution with the following meta:

  • meta-poky
  • meta-openelbedded/meta-oe
  • meta-openelbedded/meta-networking
  • meta-openelbedded/meta-multimedia
  • meta-gstreamer1.0
  • meta-freescale
  • meta-phytec
  • meta-yogurt
  • meta-rauc


I used CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL to add some packages into the distribution:

  • imx-codec
  • imx-vpu
  • imx-vpuwrap
  • libimxvpuapi
  • imx-parser
  • gstreamer1.0 + libav, bad, good, ugly, base, imx

Do I need firmware-imx or imx-gst1.0-plugin (which I have not managed to install) ?

  • adv7180 driver is well probed and the I2C address is correctly detected.
  • ipu2_csi1 is used

There is an extract of my dts:
    adv7180@20 {
        compatible = "adv,adv7180";
        reg = <0x20>;
        pinctrl-names = "default";
        pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_ipu2_2>;
        clocks = <&clks IMX6QDL_CLK_CKO>;
        clock-names = "csi_mclk";
        ipu_id = <1>;
        csi_id = <1>;
        mclk = <24000000>;
        mclk_source = <0>;
        cvbs = <1>;
    };
pinctrl_ipu2_2: ipu2grp-2 { /* IPU2_CSI1: 8-bit input */
    fsl,pins = <
    MX6QDL_PAD_EIM_DA1__IPU2_CSI1_DATA08    0x80000000

    MX6QDL_PAD_EIM_A22__IPU2_CSI1_DATA17    0x80000000

    MX6QDL_PAD_EIM_DA12__IPU2_CSI1_VSYNC    0x80000000
    >;
};

The gstreamer pipeline works with a test video with the following command:
> gst-launch-1.0 -v videotestsrc ! video/x-raw ! x264enc ! filesink location=/home/root/capture.mkv

When using "imxv4l2videosrc" with device=/dev/video7 instead of "videotestsrc", the pipeline crashes:
> gst-launch-1.0 -v imxv4l2videosrc device=/dev/video7 num-buffers=1 ! video/x-raw ! x264enc ! filesink location=/home/root/pal_capture.mkv

It also crashes with "v4l2src" source:

Do you know which driver I need to use besides the adv7180 driver ?

Do you know any test I can run to verify /dev/video7 is the right source (I am not sure of anything anymore) ?

Is there a way to set the video channels ipu2_csi1_xxx easily ?

Thank you in advance,

Quentin.

Hi Quentin

"imxv4l2videosrc" plugin is part of gstreamer-imx plugins,

issue may be posted on Issues · Freescale/gstreamer-imx · GitHub 

For "v4l2src" one can try nxp linux from source.codeaurora.org/external/imx/linux-imx repository

linux-imx - i.MX Linux kernel 

and follow sect.7.3.9 Recording the TV-in source attached Linux Guide.

More documentation canbe found on

i.MX Software | NXP 

Best regards
igor
