separating the splash image from the U-Boot(AM3517)

Hello:

 I need to copy the splash screen image (in a raw binary format) from NAND to the framebuffer in uboot source.

The purpose is to separate the splash image from the U-Boot binary to easily customize the splash screen for various applications.

Any sort of help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Waman Prabhu. 

  • Hello Wama.

    I have the Technexion Blizzard kit.

    They make a very interesting thing. They use cat command on Linux and concatenate the u-boot.bin, splash.bgra.xz image and binary zeros to generate a final u-boot.bin file. After that, a splash image is showed on display.

    I saw the u-boot source code and they dont enable bitmap suport.

    I dont know yet how they can make this.

    Did you figured out?

    Best Regards,
