AM62P-Q1: encode error

 our encode image size is 1920*736

Hi,

Can you help us reproduce this issue on our EVM?

Best Regards,

Suren

Hi, 

Is the memory allocated by the 

Please share your pipeline or parameters you are setting for the encoder?

How can we reproduce the issue?

Best Regards,

Suren

Hi, 

our pipeline is camera->GPU->encode(H.264).

Previous we use

now we use

Hi,

Can you please add the above patch and give it a try. Add the patch to gst-plugins-good and build the Gstreamer package. 

Let us know how it goes.

Best Regards,

Suren

Hi，

we didn't  obtain Gstreamer sourcecode, so we can't build it.

Best Regards,

linz

Gstreamer package is part of the yocto build. Are you using yocto to build the wic image?

Best Regards

Suren

Hi,

NO, we didn't use yocto build. can you provie a patch of v4l2, we build the kernel, then we will try to test it.

Best Regards

linz

So how do you build the entire SDK image? The SDK has Gstreamer included?

Best Regards,

Suren

The sdk include a default image, it's included Gstreamer.

Best Regards,

linz

Hi,

Please let me know with whom you are working in the China Field team, to better support you.

Best Regards

Suren

Yong

hi linz.

which version of TI SDK you are using? 

and please follow the guidline to set up the environment to build yocto project.

https://software-dl.ti.com/processor-sdk-linux/esd/AM62PX/11_01_16_13/exports/docs/linux/Overview_Building_the_SDK.html

hi Suren.

may I ask how to proceed this?

what is the command to apply the patch?

what is the command to build Gstreamer package? which receipt?

or anything else?

Suren Porwar said:

Add the patch to gst-plugins-good and build the Gstreamer package. 

thanks a lot!

Hi Yong,

SDK version: 11.01

Best Regards,

linz

Hi Yong, 

Do you have a yocto setup environment, to create the wic image?

Best Regards

Suren

Hi Linz.

may I ask which one? there is two versions of 11.01.

and please also help prepare Yocto environment on your side.

https://software-dl.ti.com/processor-sdk-linux/esd/AM62PX/11_01_16_13/exports/docs/linux/Overview_Building_the_SDK.html

Hi Suren. 

let me check that in field. and would you please provide the commands to apply the patch, rebuild code and the path to contain wic image?

Hi Linz.

here is one brief note to prepare yocto environment on PC w/ one SSD disck, 500GB volume is necessary.

for more detail, please check this link, especially that you need proxy.

Please find below the Migration to Gstreamer 1.24.13 and Latest kernel steps using Yocto Scarthgap.

The Folder contains two  things:

A WIC mage that can be tested with AM62P EVM.

Yocto build files latest ZIP file. 

https://tidrive.ext.ti.com/u/jYKWQsWClhyfgpZQ/de3f3067-fc1a-439a-844b-4a4ac9bf9310?l

Accesscode: L45YZe`a

Steps to replicate the build on your end with these changes on AM62P EVM assuming you are using the oe layer config to setup the environment using 

processor-sdk-scarthgap-chromium-11.01.16.13-config.txt

1.

Unzip the yocto-build-files-latest.zip file. You should see three folders (oe-core, arago, ti) each containing the patches to be applied.

2.

Copy respective patches in sources/oe-core, sources/meta-arago and sources/meta-ti directory of your yocto setup.

3.

cd into sources/oe-core and run git am 0001-move-oe-core-to-1.24.13.patch
cd into sources/meta-arago and run git am 0001-meta-arago-patches-to-migrate-to-1.24.13.patch
cd into source/meta-ti and run git am 0001-meta-ti-meta-ti-bsp-update-to-latest-kernel.patch

4.

remove qt6 and chromium from config to speed up the time and remove the qt6 dependency error
- this will be in the build/conf/bblayers.conf

5.

add lines to bottom of local.conf to remove additional dependencies that require qt6
IMAGE_INSTALL:remove = "ti-apps-launcher qmltermwidget"
DEMOS:remove = "ti-apps-launcher"

6.

update file in meta-ti-sdk layer to change PV for the gstreamer file
- found in sources/meta-tisdk/meta-ti-foundational/recipes-multimedia/gstreamer/

mv  gstreamer1.0-plugins-good_1.22.%.bbappend gstreamer1.0-plugins-good_1.24.%.bbappend

7.  Go to build directory and issue the build.

build> . conf/setenv

build> MACHINE=am62pxx-evm bitbake -k tisdk-default-image

Hope this helps

Best Regards

Suren

Hi Suren.

Tried on my side, the new image generated like this.

Please let us know if the image is enough for customer to verify the issue.

Hi Linz.

Please let us know if also prepare the environment to be ready.

And you can have a try w/ above new image.
