Issue: I have modified the C sample app inside deepstream sdk 5.1 to add a Valve plugin in the pipeline. My target is to have the frames inferred by nvinfer plugin once for every 5 sec remaining time i want the frames to be dropped. I added a timer callback for this purpose.
When the timer call back triggers for the first time, the gobject of valve drop is set to true and hence the inference stops in the pipeline. the second time the call back triggers and when i set the valve drop to false still the frames are frozen. I could not get the pipeline to resume from the current time.
Help me resolve this issue. I have the code attached below.
