Gstreamer gst-fsl-plugins-good and gst-fsl-plugin-bad compilation steps?

shafi · ‎09-17-2014

Hi

I am working on the IMX6Q platform performing gstreamer applications. For some of the use cases the default demux aiurdemux is not working properly. Could any one give a detailed procedure on how to cross compile gstreamer fsl plugins to be used in the platform. This is required so that I could use the plugins working in PC available in the IMX platform also.Please also share the link where I can find the additional gst-fsl plugins.

I found the system requirement should be ubuntu 9.04 , but Iam using Ubuntu 12.04

Distributor ID: Ubuntu

Description: Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS

Release: 12.04

Codename: precise

Is this creating a problem?

joanxie · ‎09-19-2014

one can install the gstreamer as the attachment mentions, if you have any errors when you build, pls share with me.

Guanqiong Xie thanks for the reply.

I followed the instructions to install ltib for imx6 and I have installed ltib .

After installing ltib , it asked me to select the packages. I have also included the kernel source in /opt/freescale/pkgs folder and it started compiling.

I have also selected the gst plugins in the package selection in ltib, But while compiling there were lot of errors somehwo i fixed each and every thing . Now I am stuck here , Can you please help me.

Pasting the logs while compilation.

And also Iam using this cross compiler

Is it correct?..

joanxie · ‎09-23-2014

before install the ltib, you should install some host package in the ubuntu, I send the document to you, refer to the 1.5 Install Host Packages Needed by LTIB.

# Install packages needed by LTIB

sudo aptitude -y install ccache ncurses-dev zlib1g zlib1g-dev gcc g++ libtool

if aptitude fails, pls use apt-get.

shafi · ‎09-23-2014

Thanks

@Guanqiong Xie

From the section 1.5 I have installed everything and still facing the same problem.

@Yuri

I also ran the script which was attached in the post. But no help, still the zlib is not building.

May be is there way were i can try reinstalling certain packages. ?

Is there other ways like copying compiled gstreamer libraries directly to the filesystem? or any other place i can get??/

Any other ideas?

Yuri · ‎09-24-2014

Have You tried demo images (it makes sense to use the Yocto (Linux 3.10.17) release) ?

Looks like zlib cannot be built - please check host environment ;
refer to the next Community link for recent recommendations
about Linux host setup :

"i.MX Linux BSP Environment Setup"
