gst-fsl-plugin 3.0.8 and Ltib

[ieio]

Hi all,

I found here (FSL Community BSP Release Notes 1.5 documentation) that gst-fsl-plugin latest version is 3.0.8.

I am using ltib 3.0.35 and I am wondering if (updating properly the specs) I could use gst-fsl-plugin 3.0.8 and where I can find it.

Thanks in advance.

Yes, if you update the spec files properly, and you download manually the tarball you can get it running in LTIB, I think. You may face some toolchain issue, but I think you probably can get it working.

And, only for testing, you can download a pre-built image in order to see what´s the latest MM looks like at Public images - fsl-community-bsp/daisy/12/x11/imx28evk

Download this file: fsl-image-machine-test-imx28evk-20140523-12.rootfs.sdcard

And you copy it to an sdcard with:

$ sudo dd if= fsl-image-machine-test-imx28evk-20140523-12.rootfs.sdcard  of=/dev/sdX

(in the image I sent to you, the MM version is 3.0.10)

Many thanks,

I guess I could try imx6 images (Public images - fsl-community-bsp/daisy/12/directfb/imx6solosabresd) as well.

Just a stupid question, where I can manually download a gst-fsl-plugin > 3.0.8 tarball from? Should I build a Yocto image to get the tarball?

it´s not a stupid question. In fact, you cannot download only the package itself, because it´s part of a release, and you would need to install the imx6 release, and ....

but, take a look at this line of code: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-fsl-arm/tree/conf/layer.conf#n14

why did I think you had been using imx28? I don´t know....

Thanks....

it sounds strange that gst-fsl-plugins-3.08 actually is gst-fsl-plugins-3.5.7-1.0.0 (see [meta-fsl-arm,06/15] gst-fsl-plugin: Update to 3.0.8 release - Patchwork).

Anyway, manually, downloading gst-fsl-plugins-3.5.7-1.0.0 and changing properly the spec, it compiles in LTIB.

well, i´m not the one who determinate the names of the packages! I agree with you it´s weird. And I´m happy you got it :smileygrin:

You know we are now at 3.0.11, right? http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-fsl-arm/tree/recipes-multimedia/gstreamer/gst-fsl-plu...

Only double checking....

[ieio]

I didn't know.

Thanks for that. I found it on FSL_MIRROR, and this time it seems that the recipe name matches the package name. I will try to build it with LTIB. I noticed there several changes comparing with gst-fsl-plugins-3.5.7-1.0.0.

I was not able to find release notes inside the pkg, I was used to read the pdf files in docs directory, but now there is just eula.txt there, any hints about where to look for?

hummmmm

there is, for most MM releases, a MM release notes you can download from freescale.com/imx page.

But, please, don´t ask more regarding this topic. There is only one answer: all the work is already done in yocto. And I don´t want to say to you what rootfs builder to use.
