I don't think I've ever seen a CMEM allocation problem hang a codec before. Unless of course you feed the encoder with a bad address - but that is sort of self inflicted pain ;)

I assume that either one of the codec's run individually - but it's the combination that hangs?

Setting CE_DEBUG=2 (or 3) will provide more details. Turning on trace is the right way to start. CMEM provides memory for the algorithm - there are some CMEM-related debugging techniques documented here:

    *Subject:* DM355: MPEG4 + MJPEG together

    Hi,

    Has anyone had problems running MPEG4 alongside MJPEG on the
    DM355? ie. encode the same frame in the same application with
    MPEG4 followed by MJPEG?

    For me, the MJPEG IMGENC1_process call hangs.

    More generally, what is the best way to debug things like this? I
    use CE_DEBUG=1 but it doesn't give me enough info. I find
    debugging memory allocation problems with the DM355 especially
    difficult to debug as it will not always tell me that it has run
    out of memory. If it doesn't I might get a SIGSEGV or no feedback
    at all. This really slows down debugging. I'd love to know how
    much/many pools I have remaining free at a given point.

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Thanks, Peter
