Deepstream-rtsp-in-rtsp-out : OSD and Sink does not show output / How to chage it to peoplenet model?

Please provide complete information as applicable to your setup.
• Hardware Platform (Jetson / GPU) nano
• DeepStream Version 7.0
• JetPack Version (valid for Jetson only) 6.0
• TensorRT Version 8.6.2.3-1+cuda12.2
• NVIDIA GPU Driver Version (valid for GPU only) NVIDIA-SMI 540.2.0
• Issue Type( questions, new requirements, bugs)

  1. It does not show output to visualize frame by frame even after adding OSD and Sink.
  2. How to chage it to peoplenet model? Any references to follow it ?
