Hi Jean-Marc I'm trying to integrate your speex codec on our custom Blackfin board. The board is not uCLinux compatible and there is no chance that it will ever be. I am using ADI-supplied VisualDSP++ IDE and corresponding toolchain. As long as I am compiling "C"-only version of the library everything is fine. VisualDSP++ produces working library. There is only one not so minor

Hi Michael, hi all, is there any news from this topic? http://lists.xiph.org/pipermail/speex-dev/2008-February/006561.html Michael tried to translate the GNU constraints to VDSP, but it shows no improvement. Is it only for performance or are there other things? I also had a look in the ADI-Speex in their SDK, but it is an older version and the BFIN_ASM does not work. There are no other options,

> >Actually, you're the first I know using the VisualDSP++ toolchain :-) > I guess that's because speex has pretty big memory footprint. So developers that integrate speex tend to have plenty of RAM and once one has plenty of RAM he could install biggish OS. And between biggish OSes for Blackfin the most popular choice is uCLinux. And ucLinux works best with gnu tools. Something

Hello! I'v downloaded speex lib 1.1.11.1. I am trying to port speex lib to Blackfin processor. I am using VisualDSP++ 4.0. If I am compiling source codes with using floating point everything ok. When I am compiling with FIXED_POINT defined everything's ok and code works about two times faster. But when I am defining BFIN_ASM I am getting several compiling errors in Blackfin assembler

Hi, I'm using the Speex codec on my Blackfin-based board, and plain-C performance is pretty poor. Decoder is OK (something 25 MIPS for wide-band). But Encoder is not (wide-band quality 8, complexity 1): - 162 MIPS with Analog-Devices lib - 128 MIPS with 1.2beta2 (faster but not working) I don't worry that much, as it's not the optimized version, and everything is running in SDRAM.

Hi Jean, First, I would like to thank for the prompt reply. Basically, what I have to do is to run a speex coder/decoder on a Blackfin processor, on top of the microC/OS II kernel. I wish I could use uclinux, since I'm familiar with Linux, but this doesn't depend on me. You said that the assembly code is written for gcc, not for VisualDSP++. Furthermore, in the link you sent me, the

Hi all, I'm trying to run speex on the Blackfin processor. I'm not familiar with programming/compiling/linking at all, but I guess the first thing I need is libspeex compiled for Blackfin, so that my program can use the library functions. I've downloaded the source files (version 1.1.10) from www.speex.org and I've been trying to compile libspeex from within VisualDSP++, but it

Hi Jean-Marc, As I told you, bank is a reserved keyword in Analog Devices compiler for Blackfin architecture. So we need to change the variables named bank to something else. Here's a patch that changes bank to bnk in the 3 concerned files. (Hope the format is OK) About my previous problems with the Blackfin: -> strange block repetition that could be cancelled by the AEC I was busy

All the development on Blackfin has been done with gcc, which may explain some problems with the inline asm. Does VisualDSP++ support a syntax close to what gcc uses (with constraints) or more like the MS compilers. > If I am compiling source codes with using

[ please copy me on answers, since I am not subscribed to the list ] Dear all, I am trying to write an R function which uses system.time to determine which of a given list of R expressions executes fastest. To work around the limited resolution of system.time, I want to convert the given expressions into functions which execute the given expressions a fixed number of times. My current attempt

Hi, I think the (small) readme has been accidentally omitted from the tarball. You can get it at http://svn.xiph.org/trunk/speex/README.blackfin Note however that all the assembly is written for gcc, not VisualDSP++.

We have had another instance of this..... since I am forwarding to other lists, "this" involves a lost file, due to accidental deletion. in this case, we had a backup, but from the backup time, till deletion time, a lot of data had been lost. So, we have not enough disk space to do hourly backups, novell allowed recovery of a lost file like this, so: is there a filesystem that we
