Hi All,

I am getting below error when trying to install GStreamer on my target device - Jetson AGX Xavier Industrial.
I am running kernel 5.10.120-tegra and linux version is 35.4.1.

root@trident-desktop:/home/trident/Downloads# sudo apt-get install gstreamer-1.0-tools gstreamer1.0-alsa gstreamer1.0-plugins-base gstreamer1.0-plugins-good gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad gstreamer1.0-libav

E: Unable to locate package gstreamer-1.0-tools
E: Couldn’t find any package by glob ‘gstreamer-1.0-tools’
E: Couldn’t find any package by regex ‘gstreamer-1.0-tools’
root@trident-desktop:/home/trident/Downloads#

Please let me know, how to resolve these errors. I am installing this to test my Eco Capture card , which is connected to my SOM module via mPCI/M2 slot and the other side it is connected to a SDI interface based camera for testing.

$sudo apt-get install libgstreamer1.0-0 gstreamer1.0-plugins-base gstreamer1.0-plugins-good gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly gstreamer1.0-libav gstreamer1.0-doc gstreamer1.0-tools gstreamer1.0-x gstreamer1.0-alsa gstreamer1.0-gl gstreamer1.0-gtk3 gstreamer1.0-qt5 gstreamer1.0-pulseaudio

This command seems to install some stuff successfully.

Hi,
The package name should be gstreamer1.0-tools instead of gstreamer-1.0-tools

Thanks, it worked.

Could you please help me on further steps( any helpful link), where I need to use GStreamer player to test by camera connected to my Video grabber card via SDI interface through PAL/NTSC.

what commands should we use?

Thanks.

Hi,
If the camera input supports v4l2, please refer to Jetson Nano FAQ

Q: I have a USB camera. How can I launch it on Jetson Nano?

For more sample commands, please check
Accelerated GStreamer — Jetson Linux Developer Guide documentation

I am getting below error, when I run the command xinit & :

Any idea what may be the reason.

These steps are mentioned in the file “nvgstplayer-1.0_README…txt” present in the directory

Hi,
If you use default rootfs, Ubuntu desktop is enabled and you don’t need to initialize X Window. You may ignore the step and try gstreamer commands in developer guide.
