VP8 encoding
videotestsrc
ARM load: 156% but only videotestsrc consumes 100%. According to the NVIDIA forum when using videotestsrc the system is also doing memory copies to feed the encoder with NVMM memory buffers so that loads more the ARM.
gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc num-buffers=150 ! 'video/x-raw, format=(string)I420,width=(int)640, height=(int)480' ! omxvp8enc ! qtmux ! filesink location=test.mp4 -e
VLC can play the file correctly at 30fps and reports as codec: Google/On2's VP8 Video (VP80). The fan on top of the SoC didn't turn on.
nvcamerasrc
gst-launch-1.0 -e nvcamerasrc fpsRange="30.0 30.0" ! 'video/x-raw(memory:NVMM), width=(int)1920, height=(int)1080, format=(string)I420, framerate=(fraction)30/1' ! \ nvvidconv flip-method=2 ! 'video/x-raw(memory:NVMM), format=(string)I420' ! omxvp8enc bitrate=8000000 ! qtmux ! filesink location=test.mp4 -e
VLC reports bitrate on ~8Mbps.
ARM consumption ~50% of one core (4 cores available 400% - this means something like 15.5% of total). However, only the capture is 11.25% so the VP8 consumes 4.25%
