DeepStream Services Library (DSL) for Python and C/C++

prominence_ai · February 27, 2020, 1:34am

All,

We’ve been developing a shared library of DeepStream services for Python and C/C++, to help simplify our own application development, and wanted to share with the community with the hope that others may join us.

Our GitHub Repo can be found at https://github.com/canammex-tech/deepstream-services-library

A couple of quick disclaimers…

First, if you’re already a DeepStream expert and well on your way then DSL might not be for you. But if you’re new to DeepStream, and especially GStreamer, then DSL might be a quick and simple way to get started.

We have basic but broad API and Unit level test coverage. What we don’t have is much in the way of “in-system” test.

Development is still in progress, as evident by the open issues, but there’s an alpha release available for download now. https://github.com/canammex-tech/deepstream-services-library/releases

There’s an overview to help get started at https://github.com/canammex-tech/deepstream-services-library/blob/master/docs/overview.md

The API is fairly well documented (for an alpha release), and there are a number of examples in Python.

Please, let us know if there’s any interest.

Regards,
Robert.

Thanks for your sharing, Robert!
Is it possible to get NTP timestamps from the rtsp source in python using your framework?

It seems that I can’t take NTP timestamps from rtpsrc in pyds. The second option in this link DeepStream 5.0 says that I need to use configure_source_for_ntp_sync() but it is not implemented in pyds. I’ve tried this approach What's the detail implementation of function "configure_source_for_ntp_sync" - #3 by horacehxw and modified a pipeline but for some reason I get zero NTP time.

Thus, it seems like it’s hardly possible to receive NTP timestamps without C/C++. If your framework provides such an ability in python then it’s a great solution of this problem.

Hi @vlukin, yes the NTP timestamp is valid in DSL.

Please be aware that this work has been on hold for the last several months as I focus on the applications side, but will be resuming again shortly. The repo will be moving to a new GitHub organization Prominence AI, Inc. · GitHub next week.
