Argus binary provides better intensity image compare to gstreamer pipeline

[Mr_JP]

Hi team,

We are developing a gstreamer application using jetson xavier. the gstreamer pipeline is given below.

gst-launch-1.0 nvarguscamerasrc exposuretimerange="13000 683709000 " gainrange=“5 7” ispdigitalgainrange=“1 1” tnr-mode=2 tnr-strength=“0” ee-mode=2 ee-strength=“0” awblock=false aelock=false aeantibanding=1 wbmode=0 exposurecompensation=“0” ! ‘video/x-raw(memory:NVMM), format=(string)NV12, width=1920, height=1080, framerate=(fraction)60/1’ ! nvvidconv ! nvegltransform ! nveglglessink

We can observe that argus binary provides better intensity video compared to the above pipeline.
kindly let me know your suggestions to get a gstreamer image similar to argus image.

Jetpack used:- 5.1.1

output of argus binary:-

output of gstreamer pipeline:-

The setting are the same?

[Mr_JP]

yes same

hello Mr_JP,

it may due to you’ve given some external settings to gst pipeline,
may I know what’s the real use-case? could you please disable those controls, and taking still image for comparison.
please also do have ignore some buffers before 3A converge,
for instance,
here’s sample pipeline to capture 101 frames, you may take the last frame (i.e. capture100.jpeg) for comparison.
$ gst-launch-1.0 nvarguscamerasrc sensor-id=0 num-buffers=101 ! 'video/x-raw(memory:NVMM),width=1920, height=1080, framerate=30/1, format=NV12' ! nvvidconv ! jpegenc ! multifilesink location=~/Desktop/tmp/capture%d.jpeg -e

Hi Jerry,

We are developing a opencv application. giving gstreamer pipeline as input to opencv.
we are taking argus camera output as reference. by comparing gstreamer output and argus camera , we could find that argus have more intensity .

we have tried gstreamer pipeline with settings same as that of argus still we are facing the same issue.

hello Mr_JP,

@Mr_JP

Jetpack used:- 5.1.1

there’re improvements to address preview difference between images captured with argus_camera and Gstreamer,
however, is it possible for moving forward to the latest Jetpack-5 release version (i.e. JetPack 5.1.4) for confirmation?
