Hi,
Please share which Jetpack version you are using. ffmpeg 4.4.2 is for Jetpack 6 Orin series.
R35 (release), REVISION: 5.0, GCID: 35550185, BOARD: t186ref, EABI: aarch64, DATE: Tue Feb 20 04:46:31 UTC 2024.
nvidia-l4t-core 35.5.0-20240219203809.
The two above methods cannot definitively determine the version. Please provide a command to check the version.
I am using the Jetson Xavier NX series.
Hi,
We can run the commands successfully on clean Jetpack 5.1.3:
$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt install nvidia-l4t-jetson-multimedia-api
$ sudo apt install ffmpeg=7:4.2.7-nvidia
$ ffmpeg -c:v h264_nvv4l2dec -i /home/nvidia/test.mp4 a.yuv
Please give it a try. If you still hit failure, please re-flash the system and try again.
Is this the only version that supports hardware decoding? Are other versions or source compilations not capable of it? And this version doesn’t include a hardware encoder.
Hi,
This is the version for Jetpack 5 and hardware decoding is supported.
If you need hardware encoding, we suggest use jetson_multimedia_api. The samples are installed to
/usr/src/jetson_multimedia_api
