error when make media-controller-utils, How to fix the problem?

Eric Mao

I use ezsdk_dm816x-evm_5_01_01_80. and want to run the decode demo on my evm board. When I make the "firmware_loader", the following message display in the terminal windows.

We have a newer EZSDK release v 5.02 which supports a much easier way of building firmware_loader and other components which are included.

All you would have to do is at <EZSDK_ROOT>

$make media-controller-utils

Firmware-loader will get built here.

You can find the latest EZSDK here.

Thank you for you reply!

I've installed the newer EZSDK version v5.02.02.60, but it doesn't have a folder named lib under the SYSLINK_INSTALL_DIR/packages/ti/syslink. I use a old version syslink/lib and get the firmware_loader.

Can you tell me the cause of the compile error in the old EZSDK version.

Eric,

multimedia utils needs syslink to be built before as you have said.

So the complete list of make commands required to build media-controller-utils

$make linux && make syslink_hlos && make media-controller-utils

This will make sure that all depedent packages for media controller utils will get built from the right source files.

Its always a good idea to build packages from the top level makefile. When building inside the media-controller-utils directory, some required Build variable might not have been initialized.

Yes, must type make linux before make syslink, or will get a error message"can't find file kernel.release"
