Hangout video call with Freescale HW Codec

Hi,

Is there any way to make sure Freescale HW video codec is used for Hangout / WebRTC during video call?

Hangout video call with HD resolution on IMX boards is slow and has significant video delay and this could be due to SW codec is used for video calls.

It seems from the example code, Hangout has added HW codec support for only Nvidia, Qualcomm and Samsung HW codecs.

Hi Mohammed

you can look at GStreamer 1.0 plugins for Freescale's i.MX

platform with  video en/decoding using VPU engine.

Freescale/gstreamer-imx · GitHub

OpenWebRTC

Hi Igor,

Thanks for your reply but GStreamer 1.0 plugins is not applicable in our case.

I am using Android JB 4.2 on IMX custom board and I want Hangout or WebRTC or any third party video call application should always use Freescale HW codecs.

Is OpenWebRTC uses Freescale HW codecs?

Regards,

Hasan

Hi Mohammed

no WebRTC is not supported in official releases.

You may look below what is supported

L3.10.17_1.0.0_LINUX_DOCS

i.MX6Q|i.MX 6Quad Processors|Quad Core|Freescale

Also I would recommend to post this to meta-fsl-arm mailing list, so that someone familiar

with WebRTC could try to assist you.
