Deepstream nvurisrcbin reconnect problem

Accelerated Computing Intelligent Video Analytics DeepStream SDK

I’m using deepstream on 4 cameras connected locally using RTSP. Since I use python I’m using nvurisrcbin to define rtsp-reconnect-attempts. I set it to -1 (Maximum number of times a reconnection is attempted. Setting it to -1 means reconnection will be attempted infinitely. Valid when type of source is 4 and rtsp-reconnect-interval-sec is a non-zero positive value.). Somehow my code gets stuck in a loop printing “Resetting source -1, attempts:1” and always keep getting attempts 1. What could be the problem?
I tried the same code on my camera locally and when I disconnect the camera it start counting normally (attempts 1, attempts 2, attempts 3…) until it connects again. My specific use case it that my Jetson orin nano and cameras are connected locally to the same network but on a remote location. Does anyone have any idea what could be the problem or a way to fix it? My goal is to get camera connected automatically when it somehow loses connection (I think).
I’m using deepstream with primary model and secondary model in a pipeline (both yolo11 models i.e., .engine files after int8 calibration)
Here are the jetson orin nano specifications:
Cuda: 12.8.93
cuDNN: 9.8.0
TensorRT: 10.7.0.23
Deepstream: 7.1
Jetpack 6.2

  1. nvurisrcbin is opensource. From the code, attempts will increase after each reconnection. I suppose “attemps: 1” is becuase the plugin reconnected again after reconnecting successfully. How many rtsp sources did you test?
  2. could you provide the complete log 1.log by the following cmd.
export GST_DEBUG=3,nvurisrcbin:6 && "the command-line of your application" >1.log 2>1.log
  1. can you reproduce this issue with deepstream_test_3.py? only incluing rtsp-reconenct-interval and rtsp-reconnect-attemps modifications.

  1. I have 4 cameras, i.e. sources
  2. I runned command export GST_DEBUG=3 “the command-line of your application” >1.log 2>1.log (forgot nvurisrcbin:6) and got:

and keeps going…

  1. deepstream_test_3.py uses uridecodebin not nvurisrcbin

Thanks for the sharing!

  1. from the log “Resetting source -1, attempts: 2”, attempts is not always from 1.
  2. could you run the application with "export GST_DEBUG=3,nvurisrcbin:6?wondering the printing of nvurisrcbin plugin. you can redirect the log to the a file, then compress the file wth ‘zip’ tool.
  3. deepstream-test3 supports nvurisrcbin when using “–file-loop”.
