z3_mcfw_api

This directory contains a modified version of the TI mcfw API (found in dvr-

rdk/dvr_rdk/mcfw/src_linux/mcfw_api) that is tailored to work with Z3’s hardware and use-cases.

The link setup code for Z3’s applications can be found in the usecases directory. The use-case code

is called from ti_vsys.c in the same directory.

6.1.3

This directory contains the base code for rtp tx and rx, as well as the base code for audio capture

and output.

Z3 Application Overview

6.2.1

Application Names and Locations

For encode, there are 2 binaries in the sample code. The first is a menu-based application (this is

what comes up in the serial terminal when the board is powered on). The second is a command line

interface that is more flexible and easier to use from a programming standpoint. The web-based

interface uses the command line interface extensively.

The menu-based application binary can be found at:

/opt/dvr_rdk/ti816x/bin/z3_dvr_rdk_demo_mcfw_api.out

The command line interface binary can be found at:

/opt/dvr_rdk/ti816x/bin/mcfw_mcsenc

6.2.2

Application Options and Arguments

The menu-based application uses an .ini file. This .ini file is built in the script run.sh and stored in

/tmp/encode.ini.

Once called with the .ini file, the menu-based application presents to the user a menu of options.

Most .ini files are geared towards a specific use-case. The easiest way to get a valid .ini file is to

run the script with the settings you want and then copy the generated .ini out of /tmp and save it.

The command line interface for the encoder is set up by running:

# source /opt/mcsenc/mcsenc.sh
