Hi,

I am also having similar issue when two incoming video calls comes.

Here is the log:

E/vpu-lib ( 4259): VPU mutex couldn't be locked,ret = 16

E/OMX H263( 4259): Error opening encoder, ret code -2147479543

Setup:

Android JB 4.2.2.1.1.0 build

Custom board based on FSL IMX6 Sabresd

Codec used: H263.

Multiple calls works well with H264 codec with multiple VPU instances for each stream (tried with 4 streams).

Please let us know the solution to fix this issue.

Best regards,

Hasan

Hi Hasan,

This issue is not fixed yet. We are still waiting for Freescale's update.

Re: [Android] vpu-lib error while playing two videos

JianLi Mar 16, 2014 6:42 PM (in response to Karina Valencia Aguilar)

please provide us how to reproduce it.

VPU has the capability to run two video simultaneously.

[danielhung]

Hi Karina,

Here is our reproduce steps.

1. Install the attached APK. (SignageUptmateTwoVideo.apk)

2. Prepare two H.264 BP 1080p@ 30fps video files, and change the names to "video1.mp4" & "video2.mp4" respectively.

3. Put the video files into /data/ folder.

    You also need to add the READ permission for these two video files.

4. Executes the APK, you should be able to see two video playback on screen at the same time.

5. Continue the test for a long while. In our experience, the issue may happen after one day.

    When the issue occurs, display screen will be blocked. No video playback is going.

    You can double check the logs to see if it's the same problem as ours.

Jian Li can you continue with the follow up?

[JianLi]

eaglezhou, can you help check this issue?

[karina_valencia]

eaglezhou do you have an update?

Hi,

   We fixed some mulit-instance issues in vpu lib 5.4.15

   Please try the the vpu lib 5.4.15 package plus related kernel patch(mxc_vpu.c).

   Thanks.

Hi,

I try the vpu lib 5.4.15 package and kernel patch ,but it will compile error

Hi, charles

     Please add below definition in arch/arm/plat-mxc/include/mach/mxc_vpu.h

     #define VPU_IOC_LOCK_DEV       _IO(VPU_IOC_MAGIC, 16)

[charleshuang]

Hi

I found "LOCAL_MODULE_TAGS := eng" in Android.mk

which means that if we build user version ,then we don't have vpu-lib?

Is that correct?

[eaglezhou]

Hi, Charles

     I am not sure if vpu-lib can be build in user version.

     If not, you can try to modify it to 'optional'

Peng,

     I have a customer that is trying to use this patch to fix the same issue with playing multiple video files.   They are using JellyBean 4.2.2.  Their Linux kernel is 3.0.35.   They say they need a libg2d.so that contains the v0.6 interface (or later) that incorporates whatever fixes are in the v0.2 library that were posted in this community thread.  The other parts of the VPU fix are supplied in source form so they can patch those ourselves, but the libg2d.so part of the fix is  closed source.

Can you update the patch with a newer version of the Libg2d.so file?

[charleshuang]

Hi,

It still compile error, there is no  "g2d.h" file

.

Install: out/target/product/rom_7420/system/lib/lib_omx_udps_pipe_arm11_elinux.so

[Android] vpu-lib error while playing two videos

[eaglezhou]

Hi, charles

     Sorry for convience, the g2d library is involved between 5.4.12(jb4.2.2_1.0.0) and 5.4.15
     (1) Please put g2d.h into device/fsl-proprietary/include

          put libg2d.so into device/fsl-proprietary/gpu-viv/lib

     (2) modify vpu_io.c:

          g2d_alloc(bytes, 0)  ==>  g2d_alloc(bytes)

      Please try and let me know the result.

      If it can't work, we have to remove g2d dependency from 5.4.15 patch separately.

Hi

Thanks for your help, it can build correctly.

But I just have another question  about "LOCAL_MODULE_TAGS := eng" in external/linux-lib/vpu/Android.mk

Thanks.
