I am trying to play an HD movie with VLC in this board and it is extremely slow. I would like to get some help to understand the issue.

Hi suspension

Which firmware you are using?For MatrixTV system using XBMC should be ok.
And the VLC you are using maybe have not added hardware acceleration support.

Thanks

Kind Regards

Hi Steven

I want VLC specifically.
VLC support gstreamer, and there are a set of gstreamer plugins that use hardware acceleration of imx6Q SOC.

I compiled gstreamer and gstreamer plugin. But it does not work. However VLC correctly loads the gstreamer plugin without errors.

My question is, the gstreamer plugin needs things like firmware-imx, imx-lib, etc that are provided by freescale. Are these already available in the provided Ubuntu image 12.04? If not how can I go ahead?

I can build all that is needed using yocto projects, bitbake, and freescale provided code, but I dont know how to use the built results. How can I specify board specific stuff? How do I make sure the built image matches this board?

Thanks
