<div style><span style="color:rgb(51,0,0);font-family:tahoma,sans-serif">We are planning to port Linux kernel and GStreamer as media framework on one of the ARM core.</span></div><div style><span style="color:rgb(51,0,0);font-family:tahoma,sans-serif"><br>
</span></div><div style><font color="#330000" face="tahoma, sans-serif">I do not foresee any third party codec (as a OMX IL component) to integrate into GStreamer. </font></div><div style><span style="color:rgb(51,0,0);font-family:tahoma,sans-serif">In this case, what is the dependency to choose OMX IL for Codec porting? </span><span style="color:rgb(51,0,0);font-family:tahoma,sans-serif">I've two options.</span></div>
<div style><span style="color:rgb(51,0,0);font-family:tahoma,sans-serif"><br></span></div><div style><font color="#330000" face="tahoma, sans-serif">1) Use GStreamer framework and develop GStreamer plugins and elements for video encoder/decoders.</font></div>
<div style><font color="#330000" face="tahoma, sans-serif">2) Use GStreamer + gst-openmax/gst-ducati and integrate video encoder/decoders as OMX IL components.</font></div><div style><font color="#330000" face="tahoma, sans-serif"><br>
</font></div><div style><font color="#330000" face="tahoma, sans-serif">What will be the preferred option? Do I need to use IL core (e.g. Bellagio ) if I go for 2nd option?</font></div><div style><font color="#330000" face="tahoma, sans-serif">We are going to port the audio/video codec in-house on the DSP/HW accelerators and not going to use any 3rd party codecs.</font></div>
