When encoding with WebRTC, we call NvVideoEncoder::setBitrate() to change the bitrate. The process returns immediately up to the 3000th call, but after the 3001st call, it does not return at all (the number of times varies each time, but it is always approximately the same number). It is as if the…

We couldn’t replicate it, but found the cause. Because we invoked our application, which called NvVideoEncoder::setBitrate(), as an external process and didn’t consume its stdout buffer, the application stopped because of stdout buffer full. In other words, we thought that the stdout buffer was fi…

Hi, It looks like memory leak happens in running the app. Please apply this for a try: Memory Leak (Alloc/free mismatch) in Tegra multimedia API (encoder) - #6 by DaneLLL This is a known leak in the release.

Thank you so much for your reply. We tried it, but no luck. Nothing has changed.

Hi, Currently have no further idea about it. Would need your help to share a test app so that we can try to replicate the issue on Xavier developer kit.

Thanks. I will try to replicate it with ‘jetson_multimedia_api/samples.’
