[meta-freescale] getting hadware video decoder working

[Manusha Wijekoon]

Hi

I want to get hardware video decoder working in wandboard quad.
I installed fedora 22 following instructionfound here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/F22/Installation

However the installed fedora did not seem to contain freescale libraries
that support VPU, so I had to compile them and install them manually
according to instructions here:
https://www.chrillomat.net/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=wandboard:xbmc

I used the version 3.10.17-1.0.0_ga release for the install.

While compiling imx-lib-3.10.17-1.0.0, I got few compile errors for missing
kernel headers - which are freescale specific. These errors came from pxp
and ipu sub-modules in imx_lib, so I removed them and compiled the rest
successfully.

When I try to do video decoding now, I get this error from vpu_lib.
/dev/mxc_vpu not found


What could be the cause for this?

Thank you
/M
