some more info. I’ve tried to use the sample config: source4_1080p_dec_infer-resnet_tracker_sgie_tiled_display_int8.txt after modifying its sink to use FakeSink instead of EGL (ie. type=2 → type=1) I’ve tried to run it: /opt/nvidia/deepstream/deepstream/samples/configs/deepstream-app# GST_DEBUG=3 …

Have you run the unset DISPLAY command?

yes - as mentioned above, since this’s the suggestion so common :) DISPLAY is unset - confirmed: root@b06176e75a5a:/test# env | grep DISPLAY root@b06176e75a5a:/test#

The default DISPLAY maybe not in the env. Could you run the cat /proc/*/environ 2>/dev/null | tr '\0' '\n' | grep '^DISPLAY=:' | uniq command to check? You can also change the sink to fakesink and have a try.

Sorry. At present, we only support such scenario on the dgpu without a monitor, and this is not supported on jetson.

That…somehow doesnt sound right. When you say “such scenarios”, are you suggesting that Jetson units can’t run deepstream pipelines (w nvinfer as one of element) w/o a monitor?

Hi @fang4 , is the problem fixed now?

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
