RV1126 frame reading CPU usage

emreharbutoglu

Hi, I am using the firmware above. I wrote a C++ code that reads frames from a USB camera with ffmpeg library. But the problem is CPU usage. The process is consuming CPU around between %50-60. This is too much for a frame reading task. What should I do for this?

Copy the code

Also I have found a solution but it's CPU usage around between %20-30. I executing a shell command that reads frames with ffmpeg command. Not an effective solution.
My goal is reducing the CPU usage to between %5-10.

BTW FPS is 15
