GStreamer should create a v4l2video8convert element of that type. The mem2mem device is not part of the media controller graph on purpose. There is no interaction with any of the entities in the media controller graph apart from the fact that the IC PP task we are using for mem2mem scaling is sharing hardware resources with the IC PRP tasks used for the media controller scaler entitites. regards Philipp
