Hi Maxime,

I have made some decode test on my boards. Beelink MiniMX is a p200 based TV Box. Has 1GB RAM. I'm using 150balbes kernel 5.0.2+. I tried some jellyfish test video and 4k uhd decode failed:

this video is decoded successfully on my S905X box with the same kernel and same environment.

best regards, Gabor

I checked out your repository with cmd :
git clone --single-branch --branch mjourdan/v5.3/aml/vdec https://github.com/Elyotna/linux.git

The first issue I ran into is the missing "config VIDEO_MESON_VDEC" section at drivers/media/platform/Kconfig . Of course , the vdec dir. under meson folder is missing too. Is there a patch to apply these changes ?

The second issue is : can I put the generated Image directly to the /boot dir. of balbes150's armbian 5.96 ( kernel 5.3 ) ? Armbian system usually put the zImage at /boot and dbt at /boot/dtb/ folder. If not , is there any linux distro. recommended for the generated kernel and dtb ?

I'm working on some patches for the v4l2 decoder in ffmpeg, and in testing on rpi3/rpi4/lepotato I have noticed some unexpected behavior in how the meson-vdec driver behaves during decoding.

In short, ffmpeg will often hang indefinitely inside poll(POLLIN | POLLRDNORM | POLLPRI | POLLOUT | POLLWRNORM, -1). When the decoder is not able to produce frames, I would expect it to return with POLLOUT set to indicate that it needs more data. This happens more readily when the driver is configured with fewer capture buffers (i.e. 8 output buffers and 2 capture buffers).
