gst-launch command seems not using dsp cpu according to dsp-load command...

[ozka...@gmail.com]

Hi there,

I have faced with a problem while trying to set up dst-dsp in BB-xM as described in http://elinux.org/BeagleBoardUbuntu#DSP. 

The issues is that the video, big buck bunny, plays on the screen but dsp load stays 0 (zero) when I check by using "dsp-load" command. 

"dsp-test" works fine and I can confirm that the dsp load value is changing during the test is running.

Does it mean that the system is not using dsp cpu to play that video? 

I just wonder if there is anything that I am missing??

I have copied the details of my work environment and the log captured when the video plays below. 

Looking forward to your comments/advice.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Ozkan.
