Hi,

How can I make use of Mali video acceleration (ex.MPEG-4 encoding/decoding)?
without purchasing OpenMAX, I mean using Mali GPU Developer Tools, along with Meego, or Maemo.

    Hello Tamer

    I was wondering if you found a solution to this problem? I have the same goal of encoding video on a smart phone that has a ARM processor and would like to use the hardware to encode a video stream from individual image (potentially coming from the camera of the phone).

    thank you

    Hi Yohan,

    I have suspended my research on ARM's Mali video acceleration for a while; currently, I'm finalizing the same part on PC/Server platform.

    Regarding your question:
    I couldn't locate a suitable resource on how utilize Mali video acceleration; however, there is the open source GStreamer which follows the OpenMax standard (wasn't good enough for me).
    I ended up deciding that I will implement my own encoder on ARM's Mali!! Big deal, so I had to delay this for a while. If you are interested, we can start it by joining our efforts, and...who knows!  I believe it is worth it.
