Android 9.2.3.4 :Missing imx8mn/media_codecs_no_vpu.xml

[mps]

I am trying to build for evk_8mn-userdebug with following flag enabled.

#Enable this to config 1GB ddr on evk_imx8mn
LOW_MEMORY := true

It looks like media_codecs_no_vpu.xml is not present.

Hello Mohit,

You should try the Android 10 that has better support for MX8Mnano, To use SW decoder in 8MM, you just need to update the vendor/etc/media_codecs.xml file to remove HW codecs.

Hi Bio_TCFSL,

     I am trying to build official "Android P9.0.0_2.3.4" release as per "Android_Release_Notes.pdf" 8mn nano is supported. Please see text from the same document below. 

"The i.MX Android TM P9.0.0_2.3.4 is a release for the Android Pie 9.0 (P) on
NXP's i.MX 8M Nano, i.MX 8QuadXPlus b0, and i.MX 8QuadXPlus c0
applications processors."

Are you implying that Android P9.0.0_2.3.4 doesn't support imx8MN and also my question was about 8MN not about 8MM.

cheers,
