I expect the dedicated hw h264 encoding will do a better job than trying to use the gpu itself. I've not played with the omx video encode/decode stuff that qcom has for android... although as far as I can tell we have all the kernel and userspace src code (ie. everything but firmware), so I suppose it should be possible to use that under linux.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00061851853178706566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8201318254944513910.post-20759690164726810482013-12-20T11:52:27.898-08:002013-12-20T11:52:27.898-08:00Rob, I have been lurking for a while watching how ...Rob, I have been lurking for a while watching how your progress has been coming. I am working on a project to build a camera based on Snapdragon. There are many benefits that I see in doing this.<br /><br />I would really like to use Fedora, as it would make porting our applications to the camera much easier. <br /><br />One challenge I have is finding an appropriate imager. Need a 5MP with WDR which does not have an integrated lens. We need to have flexibility of choosing lens like using a CS mount. Any suggestions?<br /><br />Camera will support H.264 RTSP streaming per ONVIF specification. Hoping we can use the a3xx GPU to offload encode.

But with a220, I can run gnome-shell, xonotic, etc (native linux, gl+glx).<br /><br />For wayland, or at least weston, we need a kms kernel driver, which is still missing. But if qcom doesn't write one soon, I will :-PRobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00061851853178706566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8201318254944513910.post-5899388703940914612013-05-21T07:25:25.426-07:002013-05-21T07:25:25.426-07:00That's very cool.
