Mechanisms for Screen Capture and Video Encoding on Genio 510 EVK (MT8370) with Wayland

Hi Gurukiran Mb,

All Genio platforms provide the V4L2 H.264/H.265 hardware-accelerated encoder for GStreamer, which the v4l2h264enc and v4l2h265enc GStreamer plugins can control. The v4l2convert is also supported as a format converter and resizer.

The v4l2h264enc, v4l2h265enc, and v4l2convert are enabled by default in the IoT Yocto package. Please refer to IoT Yocto Document - Video Codec.

As IoT Yocto provides a hardware-accelerated BSP package, the screen capture feature is at the functional application level, which IoT Yocto has not tested. It is recommended that you enable Wayland’s zwlr_screencopy_manager_v1 for testing the screen capture function.
