Hello,
I am trying to show an image overlay over the video stream.
The video is taken from the external USB based camera.
To enable the image overlaying using the gstreamer, i have tried using the gst-launch command along with the pngdec decoder. This doesn't work, as the pngdec is unavailable on the board.
I have verified this by running gst-inspect | grep png. This resulted in giving the below.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
root@freescale /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10$ gst-inspect | grep png
typefindfunctions: image/png: png
ffmpeg: ffenc_png: FFMPEG PNG image encoder
ffmpeg: ffdec_png: FFMPEG PNG image decoder
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
When I use this ffenc_png with the gst-launch command, I get this below error.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Pipeline is PREROLLING ...
ERROR: from element /GstPipeline:pipeline0/ffdec_png:ffdec_png0: Internal GStreamer error: negotiation problem. Please file a bug at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=GStreamer.
Additional debug info:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
I would like to know how to enable the pngdec so that i can use it along with the gst-launch to display the image.
Were any body successfully able to use the pngdec to show the images on the display with the use of gstreamer on any i.mx platform??

Gopi

The pngdec and jpegdec are not implemented by Freescale, they are open source plug in, you can reference it to https://community.freescale.com/thread/307296.
