Hi, The Raspberry Pi team has been in the process of transitioning from OpenMAX to V4L2 for a while, it seems that they have completed this transition and are no longer shipping OpenMAX even when targeting the oldest models. So there is no longer any platforms using gst-omx directly. The only other platform left is AMD/Xilinx MPSoC, but they're shipping a highly patched version, and we'll just maintain a separate fork for them. Considering all of this, I've submitted a merge request to retire the gst-omx module from the GStreamer upstream repository. This means that gst-omx 1.22 would be the last release and there would not be a 1.24 release. There hasn't been any change committed since, so nothing is lost. See the MR: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/4976 If you have a good reason to keep it alive, please speak up now. -- Olivier Crête [email protected] Multimedia Lead
