Gst-nvmsgconv Configuration Help

Accelerated Computing Intelligent Video Analytics DeepStream SDK
1

Hi all,

I’ve been getting familiar with the DeepStream 6 SDK (running against a dGPU) and have had a good amount of success with it.

One question that has come up, however, is how to properly configure the Gst-nvmsgconv plugin properly. Specifically, there’s a required “config” element documented only with, “Absolute pathname of a configuration file that defines static properties of various sensors, places, and modules.”

That’s all well and good, and I’ve found a sample config in the DeepStream reference/test apps, but what is unclear to me is what the contents of the config are used for, how they’re used, and how they map to my own use case.

For example, I’m currently able to ingest an RTSP stream into the reference app and do whatever inference and analytics I need, and I’m looking to broadcast out the metadata. Using the named plugin above is an important first step, but I’m unclear as to how to properly configure “static elements”, etc., since I don’t know how they affect the outgoing messages.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Seriously? I’m just looking for information on how to properly configure the GST-nvmsgconv plugin, and I’ve included the hardware platform and DeepStream version already, not to mention a detailed description of what I’ve encountered and what I’m looking for.

What additional information would you need to send details concerning more explicit and exhaustive documentation?

gst-nvmsgconv is open source. The code is the best document.
/opt/nvidia/deepstream/deepstream-6.0/sources/gst-plugins/gst-nvmsgconv
/opt/nvidia/deepstream/deepstream-6.0/sources/libs/nvmsgconv

Thank you. I didn’t know that. I’ll start looking there.
