HW H264 encoding on Snapdragon Flight

Hi

I am developing on a Snapdragon Flight dev kit and want to create a H264 encoded stream of the 4K camera, preferably using GStreamer.

This is very slow if done in software and i therefore need HW acceleration, which the Snapdragon apparently supports with the OpenMAX IL. However, I am not able to find any documentation on it.

It appears that the board has some omx libraries installed:

/usr/bin/mm-qomx-ienc-test
/usr/lib/libqomx_core.so
/usr/lib/libqomx_core.so.0
/usr/lib/libqomx_core.so.0.0.0
/usr/lib/libqomx_jpegenc.la
/usr/lib/libqomx_jpegenc.so
/usr/lib/libqomx_jpegenc.so.0
/usr/lib/libqomx_jpegenc.so.0.0.0

There do not seem to be any header files, though. Where can I get the header files needed to compile an application that uses these libraries?

Are there any (non-android) examples for H264 encoding?

Thanks
