"VPU blocking: timeout" with 5MP h264 compression using gstreamer

[Selea]

We are using sabrelite with ov5640 mipi sensors.

is working fine (it takes snapshot at full resolution.)

If i try to capture a movie at fulHd resolution 30 fps it produce ok, but if i try to make a movie at full resolution (5Mp) at 15 fps. I have the following error:

mxc_vpu 2040000.vpu: VPU blocking:timeout.

mxc_vpu 2040000.vpu: VPU blocking:timeout.

mxc_vpu 2040000.vpu: VPU blocking:timeout.

mxc_vpu 2040000.vpu: VPU blocking:timeout.

mxc_vpu 2040000.vpu: VPU blocking:timeout.

...

after a while

...

mxc_vpu 2040000.vpu: fatal error: can't gate/power off when VPU is busy

imx-ipuv3 2400000.ipu: IPU Warning - IPU_INT_STAT_10 = 0x00000001

and then the vpu seems to be blocked i have to reboot the system to have the control again.

I'm using the fsl-image-test as "image"

it does the same even with mpeg4 compression.

here the pipelines used:

this one is working (mode=5 mean fullHD)

gst-launch mfw_v4lsrc capture-mode=5 fps-n=30 ! queue ! vpuenc codec=6 ! matroskamux ! filesink location=/mnt/nfs/home/test_1080p.mkv

this one is not:

gst-launch mfw_v4lsrc capture-mode=6 fps-n=15 ! queue ! vpuenc codec=6 ! matroskamux ! filesink location=/mnt/nfs/home/test_5mpix.mkv

could you tell me what mode do you use? for mx6 IPU can support up to 3.2MP camera, 15fps, yuv422 format, 8 bit interface, and vpu supports up to 1080@30fps.
