Hi Pavel,

I tried Google for this and for this link for you (using "Beaglebone
video acceleration" as keywords):
http://elinux.org/BeagleBoardDebian#SGX_Video_Acceleration

In this article look for "Beaglebone"...

Best regards,

Forget to mention: This article says, that this feature is in
development and therefore currently not available except for
the Angstrom Demo Image for Beaglebone as far as I know...(not sure).

May be Kooi Koen can give you a recipe for this....

As I understand . SGX only accelerate for rending . not for decode.

If you want use video playback . I think DM814X will be more better choice .(Just much expensive :slight_smile: )

It will have VICP , that is a really Video Accelerate module .
