DM36x H.264 encoder error 0x8010 at relatively high bitrates+low resolutions

John,

Can you please check if the issue exists when sliceMode is set to 0.

We will also check the issue at our end and get back

Adithya,

Thanks for your support.

I have indeed seen the issue with sliceMode 0 as well.

In fact I first noticed the issue in sliceMode 0.

Here are the parameters for sliceMode 0 (VGA resolution at 9 Mbits/sec, H.264 encode v2.20.00.05):

Hi John,

We are not able to reproduce the issue at our end. We tried with 352x288 at 10Mbps on 02.30.00.01, process call is not  returning any error.

Can you please try to run using codec debug library and send us the log? Please try to run on standalone testapp provided with the package.

Thanks,

Veeranna

OK.

Could you send your parameters?

I will convert my clip to raw YUV so I can use the testapp.

Hi,Adithya,

   In the process of encoding，find the issue that IH264VENC_ERR_PROCESS_CALL(0x8010)

   ERROR  (encode.c | Video_EncRun | 1165):
        Video_EncRun() failed with error (status：-1 outArgs.extendedError: 0x8010)

   how to slove this issue?

   my configuration as below:my configuration should use the slicemode)

   Thank you！

I am seeing a problem which may be very similar to this, but I don't quite understand what the solution was to this thread?
