Question: Build codec example in Codec Engine.

Dear Sir:

I would like to build example codecs in codec_engine_1_02 and suffered some problems:

1. I got an error: gcc: error trying to exec 'cc1': execvp: No such file or directory.

    So I exported this path: <arm9 directory>/libexec/gcc/arm-linux/4.1.2 and resolved this.

2. I entered: gmake and got an error again.

     as: unrecognized option '-mfloat-abi=soft'

     I would like to ask how to resolve this error?

 

3. Did you provide a free Jpeg Codec on DM6446? If yes, how can I request this software?

 

Thank you very much.

 

  • Can I safely assume you are using DVSDK  version 1.10.01.32?  This is the release that includes codec_engine_1_02.

    I have built codec engine examples in the past for this release; steps to keep in mind are

    1) make sure that your system includes correct version of the other software components per cocec engine release notes (as opposed to other release notes).  Using official DVSDK release should ensure this, but as software components are individually updated,incompatibilities among the software components can emerge, hence it is always good to look at the codec engine release notes to ensure cmpatibility across the software components.

    2) follow build_instructions.html in codec_engine_1_02/examples directory.

    You can view a list of available codecs at: http://focus.ti.com/dsp/docs/dspsupporto.tsp?sectionId=3&tabId=1460#invent

    both JPEG encode and decode are available from DM6446, you can request a free copy via the link above as well.
