We want to test the encoding latency. Using the existing sample code, we ran the following command: /usr/src/jetson_multimedia_api/samples/01_video_encode# ./video_encode input.yuv 1920 1080 H264 out.264 -hpt 1 -ifi 50 -br 2000000 -rc cbr --max-perf -fps 60 1 --stats The latency shown here indicat…

Hi,
Please check the properties for low latency:
HW encoding and decoding speed - #4 by DaneLLL

These are applicable for both gstreamer and jetson_multimedia_api. You may set poc-type=2. And suggest set -hpt 0. Furthermore, you can enable slice encoding and output buffers in slices.
