RaspberryPi2EGLFS - Tutorial Qt Multimedia
-
Hello,
I was reading this tutorial and found the last chapter a little confusing.
Qt Multimedia Unfortunately the GStreamer-based multimedia stuff is not quite usable at the time of writing - accelerated video works only sometimes (and with glitches), while the camera is just broken. As an alternative to Qt Multimedia, try using OpenMAX directly. For the Raspberry Pi Camera Module take a look at the raspistill application sources for an example on how to get the camera preview image into an OpenGL texture. If you wish to experiment with Qt Multimedia, try the following: Before building Qt Multimedia 5.6, make sure the following are installed: sudo apt-get install gstreamer1.0-omx libgstreamer1.0-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev Do not forget to sync the headers and libs back to the sysroot on the host PC and re-run the sysroot-relativelinks.py script. Once the GStreamer 1.0 dependencies are in place, make sure Qt Multimedia is built with 1.0 support: ~/raspbi/qt5/bin/qmake -r GST_VERSION=1.0 To verify that the accelerated OpenMAX path is used for H.264 videos, do export GST_DEBUG=omx:4 before running a video playback app like the qmlvideofx example.It says gstreamer is unstable but and tell you to use OpenMAX, then tell you to install gstreamter but at the end tell you to check if OpenMAX is working.
How can I make OpenMAX to work instead of gstreamer?
Thank you

Hi,
If everything went correctly you should have a special version of gstreamer that uses OpenMax so you shouldn't have to do anything to have it working.

IIRC, the idea was to make the QtMultimedia plugin use OpenMAX so you shouldn't have to do anything special for that.

@metRo_ said:

Can you clarify me which part is making Qt Multimedia use OpenMAX? BTW when I do ~/raspbi/qt5/bin/qmake -r GST_VERSION=1.0 it will replace older Qt Multimedia with new one?
