S/W encoding H.264 with i.MX7D

[ScottKerstein]

Hello,

Looking to encode H.264 from a 1080p30fps imager on the i.MX7D using GStreamer.  Is there a way to determine the CPU utilization and if a Cortex-A7 running at 1.2GHz is enough to do this task?  This is the only task.  

Thanks, in advance.

Scott

Hi Scott

nxp linux video performance without vpu is described in attached Release Notes

Table 31. Video codec specification for hardware without VPU acceleration.

More details about VPU versus non-VPU analysis  can be obtained creating service request

Thanks, Igor.  Looks like it will be limited to just JPEG in software.
