Hi.

Please see attached screenshot for latencies. The frame number is stuck at zero and no sensible frame latencies are reports.

I’ve set export NV_ENABLE_LATENCY_MEASUREMENT=1 and export NV_ENABLE_COMPONENT_LATENCY_MEASUREMENT=1

Im using a USB camera and no changes to deepstream-app/config apart from the source part of the config (for USB camera).

Maybe you can try it in-house with a USB camera, its simple to try… I’m using a logitech 1080p fps 30. The only changes from a clean install is in the deepstream_app_config_yoloV3.txt:

[source 0]
enable=1
type=1
camera-width=640
camera-height=480
camera-fps-n=30
camera-fps-d=1
num-sources=1
gpu-id=0

Thanks

Paul!

The issue you mentioned reproed, we are investigating if it’s expected or a bug. and feedback if any progress.

Latency instrumentation for DS is not in open source. You can insert a probe on source pad of v4l2 source, start the timer, insert another probe at sink pad of sink component. Time difference between the two will give the latency of the buffer.

@Amycao
Can’t we write the python bindings for nvds_measure_buffer_latency() api??

Python binding open sourced, you can write python binidings for nvds_measure_buffer_latency

10

but I could not find the C code for nvds_measure_buffer_latency() api in deepstream 5.1.
Can I get some tips on writing the binding…??

As for this, there one bug for frame latency for camera source input. that’s why suggested as this. we have bug tracking internally.

For the file input will it work?

It’s mainly for rtsp source, but for file source also working, only v4l2decoder component get a more larger latency.
