Re: Fastest way to transfer FBO from GPU to CPU memory

You would need to generate a vcsm buffer. I've done this on the pi 3 b+ with the raspbian stretch os so I'm not sure if this works on buster. I'm working with a pi 4 with the new os and this method didn't seem to work so I had to come up with an updated way to do this. #include <GLES2/gl2.h> #includ...

Re: getting mmal buffer from queue timing

So there was a problem in the way I was releasing the buffers for the output buffer pool. I would notice an ENOMEM. I have fixed that issue so when I check the queue size for both the input and output buffer pools I'm getting the correct length before grabbing a buffer. I would like some insight int...

getting mmal buffer from queue timing

I'm using the isp component for mmal to convert an image from rgba to yuv (i420). I'm using an already defined vcsm buffer as a data source for the input buffer. input_port->encoding = MMAL_ENCODING_RGBA; [...] auto input_buffer_pool = mmal_port_create_buffers(input_port, 1/*num bufs*/, 0 /*buf size...

Re: Recommendation for an alternative to OpenVG for RP4

nanovg . This seems to be a nice library that is similar to openvg but uses opengles 2 or 3 for its rendering backend and actually got it to work. I'm still messing with it as I'm not sure what actually limitations it might have. The project isn't being maintained anymore as well but last bit of ac...

Re: Missing egl/gl function

yes, I didn't take a close enough look at eglGetProcAddress which could also grab opengles functions as well. I just didn't have much of an issue with it since I was running the application headless anyway and I didn't have a need to make X function calls. as far as libGL_mesa.so I don't see that be...

Re: Pi4: MMAL video in GL (on DRM). Flickering texture. Any idea what might be wrong?

I've noticed that the colors of the image seem weird is that what the image should look like? which drm fourcc are you using for your egl import? Is the incoming image RGB or YUV?

What happens if you add a glFinish call before the eglSwapBuffers call?

Re: Missing egl/gl function

Using libGLESv2.so will show the same extensions but the issue is that a few of the egl/gl function symbols are missing from libGLESv2.so
but exist in the libGL.so. So when the program tries to link you end up with a compile error because it didn't see a particular function.

I made the mistake of linking against libGLESv2.so instead of libGL.so. I didn't think I would be able to get opengl es 3.0 using that lib file.

Re: OpenGL on Buster on both Pi 3 and Pi 4

Is it possible to use the new driver headless or without a monitor hooked up? I cannot get it to work without hooking up a monitor to the pi4.

export DISPLAY=:0 will only work when I have a monitor initially hooked up to the pi4.


Also is openVG not available support in the new driver?

Re: 720p bitrate limitation (MMAL)?

basic non-moving scene it simply does not need to use more then 1.8 or so MBits/s

That explains what was going on! I did not have much movement in the scene which explains why the encoder is only hitting around 1.8 MBits/s.
