OS : Android ICS 4.0.4

Thanks & Regards,

  • A reference is from releases like 4AI1.4 to 4AI1.7, but you could use same interface in Ducati access,

    I haven't tried in PandaBoard but if it is using Ducati code and DOMX as in mentioned releases, next posts should help to access IOMX and DOMX code, for what I remember they should cover most possible questions.

    other 2 posts that talks about how user access is handled at native level are in the same post, doing a reference that it requires root access or proper Android code access,

    It is not Android Kernel code that supports Ducati, the process is explained in next 2 links,

    In recent JB it was added MediaCodec class that has the same purpose to access native codecs, but it is only available in JB.
