How to store video in external flash in TouchGFX?

In TouchGFX Designer, images can be easily be stored in external flash by designating the Section to ExtFlashSection within the program itself. As far as I can tell there is no way to do this for videos using the user interface.

 

I know the images are designated to external flash using "LOCATION_PRAGMA("ExtFlashSection")" within the image's .cpp file. Is this the appropriate statement for video files and where should the statement be placed? There is no video.cpp file, there is a video.bin file and a reference to it in the VideoDatabase.hpp file.

 

Thank you.

Hello @psilvaggio,

TouchGFX will automatically place the videos in the ExtFlashSection, therefore, you don't need to handle it. 

Don't hesitate to ask more questions if you have any!
