 Can I flash a image whose size is greater than 512KB in Meta Image1 - Uniflash ?

By the way, can you tell me the maximum size of the four parts of the recordable file?

    Hi,

    Yes, you can flash meta-image with size greater than 512KB. 

    Not sure if I got the second part.

    Thanks

    In fact, when I was burning a 496K file, it stopped burning near the end. Why is that?
    One more problem, I parsed my bin file.
    There are about 12 FF's in it. Is it because Uniflash can't burn these 12 FF's that the progress bar gets stuck?

    Hi,

    Could you please share the log. It doesn't seem to be size issue.

    Thanks

    I am not sure whether the log you need is this one. If not, please tell me the method to get it. Thank you.

    Are you able to flash the pre-built binary C:\ti\mmwave_sdk_03_05_00_04\packages\ti\demo\xwr68xx\mmw\xwr68xx_mmw_demo.bin to rule out any issue with your binary?
