Gstreamer how to send data to the Application Layer

Hi Olivier,

Please first,V4L2 can be used in OMAP4460 on ubuntu?

Second,TI GSteamer DMAI Plug-In supports for OMAP35x Processors,to OMAP4460,Ti streamer use what software as MultiMedia Interface to send MultiMedia Datas to Application Layer?

  • Chuhong,

    On OMAP4460, using the latest Ubuntu Precise + TI public PPA (incl. kernel 3.4), V4L2 can be used to capture a video from a camera (such as a USB webcam).

    However, V4L2 cannot be used to display video frames using DSS overlays or GFX texture streaming. Such support was removed after kernel 2.6.35.

    Otherwise the equivalent of GST DMAI plugin on OMAP35x processor is gst-ducati on OMAP4. It uses DCE (Distributed Codec Engine) to talk to video codecs on Ducati side.

    To install Ubuntu Precise on Panda board, see http://omappedia.org/wiki/Prebuilt_ubuntu_binaries. For a minimal file system, you may also use http://omappedia.org/wiki/OMAP_Ubuntu_Core. Both distributions are supported by TI.

    Regards,
