i.MX8 support for gstreamer-imx

[yamazaki]

I am trying to use gstreamer with i.MX8mmevk.
When I created yocto image and tried to add gstreamer-imx, the following error occurred and the build failed.

Parsing recipes: 100% |##########################################| Time: 0:05:04
Parsing of 2562 .bb files complete (0 cached, 2562 parsed). 3483 targets, 223 skipped, 8 masked, 0 errors.

ERROR: Required build target 'fsl-image-qt5-validation-imx' has no buildable providers.

So I realize can't build using gstreamer-imx with i.MX8mmevk.

Is there a way to use gstreamer-imx with i.MX8mmevk ?

Also, when will gstreamer1.0-plugins-imx_git.bb be compatible with i.MX8 ?

Hi Tadaharu

>when will gstreamer1.0-plugins-imx_git.bb be compatible with i.MX8 ?

gstreamer-imx is community version of plugins, which is not supported by nxp.

Suggestions for gstreamer-imx may be posted on gstreamer-imx github page

NXP supports imx-gst1.0-plugins from Code Aurora git repositories

Hi, igorpadykov-san.

Sorry.

I certainly understood that it was not what I heard in NXP community.
Again, I will post on gstreamer-imx github page.

I look forward to answering another question.

Hi, igorpadykov-san.

Sorry.

The other is not the same as you hear here, too.

Thank you for answering.
