How to rotate a mp4 video with gstreamer in i.mx6 SABRE Lite

[wilsonmak]

I am trying to rotate a video clockwise with gplay command line.

But it got errors:

[Playing  ][Vol=01][00:00:05/00:02:22][fps:29]t

Set rotation between 0, 90, 180, 270: 90

fsl_player_rotate(): AutVideoSinko=videosink : ActualVideoSink=videosink-actual-sink-mfw_v4l

rotate_value = 90

rotate = 90update_mfw_v4lsink_parameter(): Update mfw_v4lsink successfully!

fsl_player_rotate(): After rotate_value == 90

mxc_v4l2_output mxc_v4l2_output.0: vout check task failed

full screen size:1920x1080

Failed to initalize the dispmxc_ipu mxc_ipu: ERR: no-0x0,ipu_queue_task err:-22

lay

mxc_v4l2_output mxc_v4l2_output.0: display work fail ret = -22

But it's fine to rotate 180, but 90 and 270.

And I try the following to rotate by 90:

gst-launch filesrc location=/data/No5.mp4 typefind=true ! videoflip method=clockwise ! aiurdemux ! vpudec ! mfw_v4lsink

Errors again:

MFW_GST_V4LSINK_PLUGIN 3.0.7 build on Nov 11 2013 00:17:51.

WARNING: erroneous pipeline: could not link videoflip0 to aiurdemux0

What is the best way to rotate a video in i.mx6 and how?

Thanks,

Wilson

1) Rotation of 180 is fine

gst-launch filesrc location=/home/media/bbb_short_1080p.avi typefind=true ! ai

P.S.  There is no video shown on the screen.

Hi Wilson

I'm facing the same issue on a i.MX6D board. It seems related to the IPU setting. No 90 or 270 rotation for a video play back. Audio is OK. No video shown but the Penguin logo still in place.

Using  echo 1 > /sys/class/graphics/fb0/rotate is not working while echo 2  will rotate the whole display 180 degrees.

Also tried the latest FSL gst libs, results are the same.

Any workaround found?

Thanks,  X Wang

Hi X Wing,

You can resize the width and height first and then rotate the video by 90 or 270.

But still I have problem showing the portrait video 720x1280.

For example,

> gplay abc.mp4

> z 0 0 720 1280

> t = 90 (rotate by 90)

However, with these settings, the video can't be shown in FULL SCREEN after rotation. 

Thanks,

Wilson

Hi Wilson,

Which BSP are you using?

Best Regards

Hi Dan,

I am using Timesys BSP.

The kernel is 3.0.35-ts-armv7l.

Thanks,

There is a property (rotate) on the mfw_v4lsink element, can you try it?
