Do you have stable working MPEG4 decoder for any of android version for OMAP3530?

Do you have plan to make MPEG2 Decoder for Android (OMAP3530)?

    Android native ARM MPEG4 codecs works on any android version on OMAP3530. In addition OMAP3530 also has DSP accelerated MPEG4 decoder (SP, up to 480P resolution) on Froyo. But there is no plan to add MPEG2 decoder on OMAP3530 Android.


    If you want MPEG4 ASP or H.264 MP/HP 720P decoder on Gingerbread, you might consider DM3730 EVM. (No MPEG2 decoder either though.)

    Thanks Liu,

     

    Our Video source is , DVB-S over IP , that means its MPEG2 but i can convert it using some application(gstream or ffmpeg)  to MPEG4 (480P)  on source device, I hope. 480 P is enough for us.

     

    Do you have any information that we consider on ,  i will be apriciated.

     

    Thanks

    Please read Juan's response in thread http://e2e.ti.com/support/embedded/f/509/t/105443.aspx - OMAP3530 DSP acceleration is no longer supported since Gingerbread. I would consider DM3730 because of that.

    Rowboat project supports lots TI devices, including DM3730 (OMAP3530 too), The wiki http://code.google.com/p/rowboat/wiki/DSP is the instruction how to build Rowboat with DSP multimedia accelerated.

    Based on Rowboat, TI has Devkit releases for many devices, this is the latest Gingerbread Devkit-1.0 release: http://software-dl.ti.com/dsps/dsps_public_sw/sdo_tii/TI_Android_DevKit/TI_Android_GingerBread_2_3_DevKit_1_0/index_FDS.html.


    Hope those info is useful.

    In general, the support of older version will be stopped sooner than the newer version, so use Gingerbread will get longer support from TI and community, comparing to Froyo.

    In addition Gingerbread provides better multimedia experience (such as better A/V sync, low latency seeking) than Froyo. Stagefright vs. OpenCORE.
