Hi, I wonder if it’s possible to connect PVRTune to a system running Intel US15W (SGX520 ip core iirc) via Intel’s driver called EMGD?  
  
  
  
I.e. do you guys know if Intel’s EMGD driver exposes the necessary interfaces needed for PVRPerfServerDeveloper to connect.  
  
  
  
Kind regards, Andreas

Hi Andreas,  
  
  
  
I’ve not tried using that platform before. If you run PVRPerfServer on the target, it will output a warning message if the driver hooks are not available.
