Missing header file <gst/cuda/gstcudamemory.h>

I am currently trying to compile a project that uses the function ‘gst_is_cuda_memory’, however, when compiling, this function is not found.

From what I understand, this function can be found in <gst/cuda/gstcudamemory.h>, however, this file is not in any of the standard include location.

I have already installed cuda and all related gstreamer packages from apt, including the libplugin-dev libraries.

Can anyone point me towards a fix to this problem?
Could I be missing any dependencies related to both gstreamer and nvcodec?
Is this header file still in use?

Regards,
Nelson

it looks like you’ll need gstcudamemory.h which appears to be part of gst-plugins-bad/sys/nvcodec

Thank you,

But should this not be already included when I install libplugin-dev via apt?

perhaps, I’m not an expert on building video codec applications. Perhaps someone else here on the video processing forum will know.

I have GStreamer 1.20.3 installed, with the following command:

apt install -y libgstreamer1.0-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev \
libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-dev gstreamer1.0-plugins-base \
gstreamer1.0-plugins-good gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly \
gstreamer1.0-libav gstreamer1.0-tools gstreamer1.0-x gstreamer1.0-alsa gstreamer1.0-gl \
gstreamer1.0-gtk3 gstreamer1.0-qt5 gstreamer1.0-pulseaudio

I have cuda-11.7 installed.

What could I be missing? Since I don’t have anything under :

/usr/include/gstreamer-1.0/gst/cuda

You already have

installed so the header file should exist somewhere. I suggest you search for it using

dpkg -L gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad

and add that to the include directive in your build command.

Hope that helps.
