Test Decoder Card
Oct 2018
Introduction
When testing the MFCP decode, it is possible that the decoder card may have failed, and that the MFCP has dropped to SW decoding. In 4K this my not be obvious if you are decoding some very simple content.
There are however a couple of tests that can be made to ensure that the decoder card is working (as much as we can tell).
Is the Decoder Card detected by the Driver?
Each time the MFCP is started, the driver communicates with the decoder card, we can see if the decoder was detected by looking for the driver in CentOs.
Run the command: ls /dev Among the listed files/folders you should see the following: decoder0 sdi0
