Dear i.MX experts!
Does i.MX6S supports h.264 1080p encoding? Freescale documentation so controversal...
Hello Dmitry,
Guess the confusion is coming from the fact VPU (video encoder and decoder bloc) is an option, according to http://www.freescale.com/webapp/sps/site/prod_summary.jsp?code=i.MX6S&tab=Buy_Parametric_Tab&fromSea... not available on S1 and S4, please check automotive datasheet for complete list of option : http://www.freescale.com/files/32bit/doc/data_sheet/IMX6SDLAEC.pdf?fpsp=1&WT_TYPE=Data Sheets&WT_VENDOR=FREESCALE&WT_FILE_FORMAT=pdf&WT_ASSET=Documentation (or consumer and industrial but VPU is on all of those).
You could encode in software (make sure you use neon) but for that resolution at a very low frame rate, better use the VPU enabled part numbers.
Best regards, Philippe.
Thanks, Philippe!
Now everything is clear. Yes, I need hardware acceleration, so I will use part with VPU.
