no total frames parameter for save output .mp4 file

Accelerated Computing Intelligent Video Analytics DeepStream SDK

Hi,
I set “[sink1] type 3=file” to save ouput file ,and using opencv to read the saved mp4 file while running “detecting(deepstream-app -c deepstream_app_config_yoloV3.txt”.

I get a error number of total frame by “cap.get(cv2.CAP_PROP_FRAME_COUNT)”
–count_frame= -9.223372036854776e+18

But it’s correct after quit the process of “detecting(deepstream-app -c deepstream_app_config_yoloV3.txt”.

Why it’s incorrect while running the project? How to solve it?

Hi,
The API is for getting information from a saved file. While the application is running, the file is lively being updated.

If you intend to access video frames, please use dsexample plugin.

Hello,
I just want to get the recognized frame one by one which including bbox ,and send it out by TCP.
So I want to save it as image firstly ,I have tried to save the frame using cv::imwrite() in the function of dsexample plugin->get_converted_mat,but no bbox for the image .

Where I can get the frame included bbox?

Hi,
We have Encode + RTSP streaming in sink gruop. You may give it a try.
