Hi All,

We are trying to do HEVC at AGX Xavier Industrial.
While our trying, we found belwo behavior.
So do you know same issue and workaround?

Questions:

  1. How can we use(add) video/x-raw(memory：NVMM）to Capabilities of v4l2src?

  2. Which Gstreamer version is AGX Xavier validated by NVIDIA?

Background:
We did HEVC encode w/ below command.

nvidta@localhost:~$gst-launch-1.0V4l2sredevice=/dev/videoeto-node=4|video/x-rav\(nenory:NUNMI),width=1280,heigh, framerate=30/1 I nvvidconv [ onxh265ene insert-aud-false insert-vul=false SliceIntraRefreshEnable=true sliceIntraRehInterval=60 control-rate-4 EnableTwopassCBR=0 vbv-size-1 EnableStringentBitrate=1 btivate=800000 slice-header-spacin 400 bit-packetization= I video/x-h265, stream-format-byte-strean, alignmentsau I rtphasspay ! udpsink host=192.168.25 port=5004 sync-false-ve

WARNING: erroneous pipeline: could not ttnk VAL2rcO to nuvconve, VAl2srcO can 'E handle caps video/x-raw(menory:NVMM), dth=(int)12B0, hetght=(Int)960, franerate= (fraction)30/1

Regarding above warning messege, it’s meaning that v4l2src can’t use the video/x-raw(memory：NVMM）.
Checked Capabilities of v4l2, video/x-raw(memory：NVMM）isn’t supported.
However we don’t know how to add video/x-raw(memory：NVMM） to Capabilities of v4l2

As such, v4l2src only handles buffers in system memory (video/x-raw). You may use element nvvidconv for copying into NVVM memory.

It depends on your running L4T version (see cat /etc_nv_tegra_release). For R35.x it would be 1.16.3.

Also note that omx plugins are deprecated. You may try instead:

gst-launch-1.0 v4l2src device=/dev/video0 io-mode=2 ! video/x-raw,width=1280,heigh=720,framerate=30/1 ! nvvidconv ! nvv4l2h265enc insert-sps-pps=1 insert-vui=1 idrintervale=15 ! h265parse ! ...<whatever_you_wanna_do_with-that_h265_stream>

For more options from nvv4l2h265enc, see:

gst-inspect-1.0 nvv4l2h265enc

Hi Honey_Patouceul-san

Thanks for reply.

Noted. When we will use this nvvidconv command, JAX will encode with DMA, right?

For R35.x it would be 1.16.3.

Which document/web page is descrived this info?

I don’t know for official documents, maybe there is a release note mentionning that, not sure.
I just tell from experience. After having flashed and installed a Jetson with JetPack (or SDKM), it should have gstreamer installed, so you can just run (here using R35.3.1):

gst-inspect-1.0 --version
gst-inspect-1.0 version 1.16.3
GStreamer 1.16.3
https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/gstreamer1.0
