Video playback issue on yocto nitrogen6x/sabrelite

Video playback issue on yocto nitrogen6x/sabrelite

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 999 bytes --]

I got yocto build with QT5 and all the gstreamer plugins including fsl
plugins. It made core-image-base image and booted up nitorgen6x board.
everything looks good and on display I see
"Please wait: booting"
also login

My problem is when I play gstreamer pipeline (which has been working), does
not produce any video output on HDMI display.

pipeline is playing and tested earlier to be working on non yocto build.
I think I am missing something here.

local.conf has
CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL += " \
gst-plugins-bad-meta \
gst-plugins-good-meta \
gst-plugins-ugly-meta \
gst-ffmpeg \
gst-fsl-plugin \
gst-plugins-base-meta \
"


at /proc/cmdline
enable_wait_mode=off video=mxcfb0:dev=hdmi,1280x720M@60,if=RGB24
video=mxcfb1:off video=mxcfb2:off video=mxcfb3:off fbmem=28M
console=ttymxc1,115200 vmalloc=400M consoleblank=0 rootwait
root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 mxc_hdmi.only_cea=1

Could someone please advice why video playback does not come on HDMI output.


Thanks
Alok

I noticed if I change the sink to mfw_v4lsink video playback works fine on
nitrogen6x.

But I need to use mfw_isink inorder to share the screen with other
graphics.

Is  mfw_isink not setup for video playback here ? gst-inspect shows
mfw_isink available.

Thanks
Alok

Thanks
I realized just now if I add
export VSALPHA=1
and then run mfw_isink pipeline video playback works.

Thanks

I am not sure if I understood, I see
cat /proc/cmdline
enable_wait_mode=off video=mxcfb0:dev=hdmi,1280x720M@60,if=RGB24
video=mxcfb1:off video=mxcfb2:off video=mxcfb3:off fbmem=28M
console=ttymxc1,115200 vmalloc=400M consoleblank=0 rootwait
root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 mxc_hdmi.only_cea=1

where video=mxcfb0:dev and  video=mxcfb1:off video=mxcfb2:off
video=mxcfb3:off are off.

I am noticing that after export VSALPHA=1, mfw_isink pipeline runs only
once till next reboot. When  I try to run same pipeline again, it does not
produce any display and hand there forever. I think something is not set
correctly for sure.

Thanks
Alok

Are you using the MM documentation? I think there is some instruction on 
that doc regarding how to control vss
(it can be downloaded from freescale.com/imx and the file name is 
something like MM_bundle)

I almost remember I had already saw this error sometime ago. Have you 
searched for this on imx-community?

Take a look if your problem is like:

This sounds suspiciously like a very old bug:

Do things work with mfw_v4lsink?

Please advise,

Hi Eric,

mfw_isink works for me for the fsl-image-test image from dora branch,
provided I do "export VSALPHA=1" before running gstreamer c/c++ program.
mfw_v4lsink was also working (does not need export VSALPHA). Although I
dont know why it is different.

Thanks
Alok
