[x264-devel] GStreamer-java and x264enc crashes app with SIGSEGV on Android

[Marko Matić]

I am trying to play around with GStreamer-java and it's h.264 encoder
(x264enc) on Android.

Now, I tried to encode raw video from test video source (set its
**is-live** property to **TRUE**), and when data starts flowing into the
x264enc Element, I get SIGSEGV in libx264.so and my app crashes. And it
looks like code is dereferencing a NULL... Exact error location is in file
"gstreamer_ndk_bundle/x264/encoder/analyse.c" line 963. And it is this line:

    h->mc.memcpy_aligned( h->mb.pic.i8x8_dct_buf, h->dct.luma8x8,
sizeof(h->mb.pic.i8x8_dct_buf) );

My device's CPU is Cortex 8 and it has NEON feature...

I tried to printout to a file all `h` structure fields, and no field is
uninitialized.


###My questions:
1. How can I know what is throwing SIGSEGV, because this line of code seems
to be ok?
2. Is this a known bug or an expected behavior of x264 encoder on ARM CPU
or I am missing some encoder configuration?
3. I noticed that if I set property **analyse** of the encoder to
**0x3:0x113** (*some random value I found online*) I don't get SIGSEGV,
encoder seems to work, but I get error in pipeline: *Data flow error*. Can
I just set **analyse** to a meaningful value?
