My name is Stavros Markou and the company i am working for uses currently imx515 . I have seen the web page of your company and i 've seen that you advertise the imx515 capabilities for hw accelerated graphics and of course for hw video decoding. As i have seen you are have android distros and linux (ubuntu) as well. I have some questions :
- Have you implemented a gstreamer media class for qt-embedded (instead of using phonon)?
- Have you implemented a opengl plugin driver for qt-embedded (from the above message i assume that you did) ? Is there a beta release for this plugin driver (as .so of course) that you can send us in order to do some evaluation ?
Would you like to send you a beta release of our qt based media player that has replaced phonon with our own gstreamer media playing classes ?
Do you think that we can find a common ground in order to cooperate at some level to make qt-embedded to fully use the imx515 capabilities ?
Best Regards,
Stavros Markou.
i have not implemented gstreamer without phonon , yet. But it shoudn't be that hard to do it.
>>> It seems that you cannot use Xoverlay feature of GStreamer if you are using qt-embedded and not QT/X11, and if you don't use Xoverlay then there are some complexities that you have to deal with. I presume that for the moment
a user of your netbook apart from using totem as a media player in order to take advantage of the vpu cannot build a QT application that runs on top of fsl plugins. Am i wrong ?
GL is fully supported , rendering to windows is supported including rendering inside 2d widgets. Howver the 2d bart is driven by the raster driver.
>>> That's very good to know. My company and i are really interested on evaluating this plugin driver.
There is a video here in the video archive, I cannot link it right now (writing from iPad) but it is easy to find.
>>> Is there a link, that i can use ?
I will foward your request to try it out. You might have to sign a NDA.
>>> I shall also discuss this with my colleagues.
