h.264 decoding + VPU

[tibowcc]

Hi guys,

I'm able to compile and run the test program mxc_vpu_test on an iMX53 with the following type of videos:

- MPEG sequence, v4, video, simple @ L3

- JVT NAL sequence, H.264 video, baseline @ L 32

But with those formats, I can't:

- ISO Media, MPEG v4 system, version 2

- ISO Media, MPEG v4 system, version 1

The program returns the error RETCODE_FAILURE = -1

So first of all, is it possible to decode those type of videos with the VPU ? And if yes, how can I modify the test program in order to do so.

Any help will be appreciated! Thanks.

Hi,

thanks for your reply!

So, what would be the way to read files with containers? I saw a Freescale plugin for gstreamer, but it's for Linux (I'm using Android).

I also spent the whole day trying to connect FFMpeg to the VPU, but no luck so far...

Thanks in advance for your help

Hi, Tibo

    For gstreamer, there is one aiurdemux plugin,

    For android, you can refer to fsl_parser component in OpenMAXIL part.

Hi, tibo

    vpu unit test program 'mxc_vpu_test' only support video raw data, includes h.264/mpeg4/mpeg2/h.263/...

    and it doesn't support files with container info (such as ISO Media, MPEG v4 system, version 1/2).
