I had to cleanup this mess for The i.MX8M Mini and Plus have different power domains for encoder and decoders as well as different clocks. Keeping them separate would almost be necessary. adam > Rockchip once - and it was no fun :) Anyways: It's up to the maintainers I > guess - I just wanted to ask if I missunderstand something here. > > Greetings, > > Alex > > > Hoping that this clarify. > > > > Best regards, > > Hugues. > > > > On 12/21/23 13:40, Alex Bee wrote: > >> Hi Hugues, Hi Nicolas, > >> > >> is there any specific reason I'm not understanding / seeing why this > >> is added in two seperate vdec* / venc* files and not a single vpu* > >> file?
