[meta-intel] Current GStreamer base and VAAPI libraries in poky + meta-intel unable to support HEVC/H265 decoding due to outdated version ?

[Ahmad, Mohd Azril]

Thanks Jussi for the clarification and I assume the latest VAAPI stack (libva, intel-va-driver and gstreamer-vaapi) will be available in the meta-intel master as well ?

Hi all,

I’m currently testing the HEVC/H265 decoding by using the GStreamer-VAAPI and from the latest master commit that I’ve pulled (from poky and meta-intel), it seems that these two layers still contained the old version of the video stack where I do tried on H265 decoding (with VAAPI) and seems that it doesn’t work on my side (I guess is not supported)  :

GStreamer 1.4.5
GStreamer-plugins-base 1.4.5
GStreamer-plugins-<good/bad/ugly> 1.4.5
GStreamer-VAAPI 0.5.10
libVA 1.5.0
Intel-VA-driver 1.5.0

I’m wondering whether is there any plan/direction for poky and meta-intel to move to the latest version of video stack so that the new video’s feature can be supported ?

GStreamer 1.5.x is the development/unstable version and those are typically not used in oe-core / yocto: The stable 1.6 should be released Any Day Now though.

It's very unlikely that GStreamer 1.6 will make it to the Yocto 2.0 release but it should appear in poky master at some point in the next cycle.

HTH,
 Jussi
