[Gstreamer-openmax] h264 decoder status

[ashray arya]

Hi Felipe,

I am not able to play h264 videos using gst-openmax. 

I am using the latest ffmpeg  mpeg4 and h264 decoders and with Bellagio's omxil layer (0.9.0).  Mpeg4 works fine but I am not having any luck with the h264 videos. I am using mp4 file to test this solution. I am, however, able to play the same file using gst-ffmpeg but gst-ffmpeg uses a different version of ffmpeg decoders. I am not sure where the problem is. Is the gst-openmax h264 solution tested?
I am using this pipeline: 
 gst-launch filesrc location= ./filename.mp4  ! decodebin  ! ffmpegcolorspace ! fbdevsink


Thanks!

Do I need to use gstreamer's h264parse to parse the data first and then feed it to gst-openmax or openmax IL layer should be able to handle whatever is being put into the input port of openmax layer by h264 plugin the way it is implemented  now?
