Please provide complete information as applicable to your setup.

• Hardware Platform : Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650
• DeepStream Version : 6.0
• NVIDIA GPU Driver Version (valid for GPU only) : 510.73.05

I am currently using the devel docker on a ubuntu machine (22.04)

I have a piece of code which runs perfectly fine when running in Deepstream 5.1 but the same piece of code when executed in Deepstream 6.0 or above throws the following error

I looked into the other similar posts available but none of them provide me the solution for my problem

I am new to the Deepstream SDK so any leads would be appreciated

What sink you are using?

[sankalp2]

I am using multifilesink

[Amycao]

Can you enable gst debug to get more debug log?
GST_DEBUG=***:5 app
Try to triage which components caused the issue.

[sankalp2]

I tried doing that with the whole log popping up from what I could understand this is the reason not 100% sure

How about remove the tracker?

[sankalp2]

I can’t
The thing is I have a custom faceblur plugin which I have to use to blur the face of the people detected in the video frame so to do that I need to be able to detect people and track them till they leave the frame so that their face is blurred the whole time and the problem I am facing is that this custom plugin works well in DS 5.1 but when used in DS 6.0 and above it fails and result in the error you see above

Update :
I removed the tracker as well but it didn’t solve the issue

[Amycao]

Did it working if you remove the custom faceblur plugin?

[Amycao]

Besides, tracker changed from DS 6.0, the tracker algorithm unified in one low level library, you also need to change the tracker config file.

[sankalp2]

Yes when I remove the custom faceblur plugin it does work

[sankalp2]

[tracker]
tracker-width=1280
tracker-height=704
gpu-id=0
ll-lib-file=/opt/nvidia/deepstream/deepstream-6.0/lib/libnvds_nvmultiobjecttracker.so
ll-config-file=/opt/nvidia/deepstream/deepstream-6.0/sources/backend/tracker_config.yml
enable-batch-process=1

This is how my tracker_config.ini file looks right now. Cross referenced it with what I had in the deepstream_python_app repo from github and most of it looks the same

[Amycao]

Then it related to your plugin, you need to debug on your side.

[sankalp2]

I tried doing it. Cross referenced it with the latest dsexample plugin files and added the needed part in the 6.0 file but it still won’t work. Is there any way to you know port a plugin which was working in 5.1 to 6.0 and above?

[yuweiw]

Could you attach your whole pipeline or graph of the pipeline? From the log you attached, it seems that the format of the image generated by your faceblur plugin is not compatible with other plugins.

[sankalp2]

These are the three different pipelines which I am using

[yuweiw]

There is no update from you for a period, assuming this is not an issue anymore.
Hence we are closing this topic. If need further support, please open a new one.
Thanks

@sankalp2

Is there any way to you know port a plugin which was working in 5.1 to 6.0 and above?

Basicly, If your own plugin don’t use deepstream own plugin, then you only make sure that the version of gstreamer is the same.
Which is your own plugin in the graph and what’s its src and sink format?
Can you enable gst debug to get more debug log after you change the tracker config?
Also, you can add some log in your own plugin and debug by yourself.
