Hi
I understand that Mali-400 GPU's does not have OpenCL support, can any one share the technical limitations of Mali-400 which limits the OpenCL support.
Or it can be added ?
Thanks,
Mani
Hi devmani,
You can definitely use the GPU to perform video processing, for example I've seen a few people accelerating YUV->RGB conversion using the GPU. If you can do the work using GLES2, then you can do the work on a Mali-400 GPU. Typically encode/decode is done using a dedicated hardware block, but if you're playing with some newer/more exotic formats then the GPU is a good option to speed things up. There should be a number of papers on the subject and maybe some existing open source projects working on this.
