I am using docker image [nvcr.io/nvidia/deepstream:8.0-gc-triton-devel](http://nvcr.io/nvidia/deepstream:8.0-gc-triton-devel). nvcompositor element is not available as part of the docker image. I have installed below plugin as well, but nvcompositor gst element is missing apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends \ ```auto gstreamer1.0-tools \\ gstreamer1.0-plugins-base \\ gstreamer1.0-plugins-good \\ gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad \\ gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly \\ gstreamer1.0-libav \\ gstreamer1.0-nice \\ gstreamer1.0-gl \\ libnice10 \\ libnice-dev \\ libsrtp2-1 \\ libsrtp2-dev \\ libwebrtc-audio-processing1 \\ libwebrtc-audio-processing-dev \\ libsoup-3.0-0 \\ libsoup-3.0-dev \\ libjson-glib-1.0-0 \\ libjson-glib-dev \\ libssl3t64 \\ libvpx9 \\ libopus0 \\ fonts-dejavu-core \\ fontconfig \\ liborc-0.4-0 \\ build-essential \\ pkg-config \\ libgstreamer1.0-dev \\ libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev \\ libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-dev \\ libglib2.0-dev \\ ``` I am trying to do compositing using nvcompositor , But it seems nvcompositor element is not avaialble. I tried alternate solution multistreamtiler. But multistreamtiler support only grid based compositing. We have a usecase of custom layouting/ asymmetric tiling. Any help in this regard would be highly appriciated ---

Welcome @tinkesh to the NVIDIA developer forums! I don’t think I can help you right away, but maybe the DeepStream category is better suited for this question? Thanks! ---

> [@tinkesh](#): > > I am trying to do compositing using nvcompositor , But it seems nvcompositor element is not avaialble. nvcompositor is a Nvidia Jetson GStreamer accelerating plugin. It only works on Jetson platform. Since you are using [nvcr.io/nvidia/deepstream:8.0-gc-triton-devel](http://nvcr.io/nvidia/deepstream:8.0-gc-triton-devel) image which only support x86 platform, it is not for Jetson device. No nvcompositor exists. ---

Is there a way we can do asymmetric compositing in deepstream ? I tried using nvmultistreamtiler: **custom-tile-config** but this seems to be not working. Let me know if this is implemented yet. As document says this is for future and need to be implemented. Any other alternative ? ---

The " **custom-tile-config**" of nvmultistreamtiler is not for public now. ---

Hi, @tinkesh : Can you tell us whether you need the blending function with the composition of multiple videos? ---
