AGX Thor JPEG HW decode

I read from Jetson Linux API Reference: 00_video_decode (video decode) | NVIDIA Docs that the gst plugin nvv4l2decoder on Thor does not support JPEG/MJPEG decoding. Is there any other suggested way to do hardware decoding of JPEG? Does nvJPEG work?

Hi,
Please try the sample for JPEG decoding:

/usr/src/jetson_multimedia_api/samples/06_jpeg_decode

Hello @etaripek

The decoder you need is nvjpegdec instead of nvv4l2decoder. You can check the plugin capabilities and properties.

If you execute `gst-inspect-1.0 nvjpegdec` you can see:


  mjpegdecode         : Enable mjpeg decoder path for decode operations
                        flags: readable, writable, changeable only in NULL or READY state

                        Boolean. Default: true

Please let me know if this works for you!

Regards!
