Hi Sebastian,
About mediacodec patch, yes I already answered to the thread and tried it but I had really too much issues with it, it absolutely does not work for me and has many many problems ... I will try to go on with it again ... but :/
I think it would deserve a lot more stability.
About gst-omx config file, what should it contain ? How to build such file or you have any documentation about it ?

Thank you

Yes, but you need to create a config file for gst-omx that is specific
to your hardware.

Yes (if your hardware exposes encoders via omx)

There is another way, using the android.media.MediaCodec API. There's a
patch started here: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=705129
