For us the problem is with omx codecs

more technically speaking, it's the pmem driver that doesn't not cooperate with omx video encoder library (the one which uses the processor's hardware dsp)..

It works because is encoding video by software and not using dsp.

For who doesn't know dsp is the Digital Signal Processor.. It's a chip for encoding/deconding the digital informations (video, sounds etc..)

I noticed that Rock Player doesn't work in hardware decoding mode with the GB roms, is this caused by the same problem?

no. lcr-f 2.0 for example has additional omx libraries for divx decoding by hw. It doesn't work perhaps so good, and I neither know if it drains battery less..

omx encoders and decoders are separate libraries.

Well, while broken camcorder never prevented me from using GB ROMs, it still is good to know that it works, may come in handy :mellow:

So thanks truecolor for fixing it and also Chase for uploading a very convenient update file.

EDIT: Works well but is veeeeery laggy

in the camcoder_phoenix.zip i have find a big file telocation.db (5.50mb).

This is a sqlite db that contains sms and location. Text is in chinese, but the blob for the image can be extracted.

Is this normal?

don't think about it, it's useless and you can delete it.

all i did - compared folders and copied files, that are not the same from lib and etc with total commander.
