Nvgstcapture streaming issue

Hell All,

I’m testing custom camera sensor.

v4l2-ctl command is working good.

v4l2-ctl -d /dev/video0 --set-fmt-video=width=4608,height=3456 --set-ctrl bypass_mode=0 --stream-mmap --stream-count=10

gst-launch-1.0 is working good.

gst-launch-1.0 nvarguscamerasrc sensor-id=0 aelock=1 ee-mode=1 ee-strength=0 tnr-strength=0 tnr-mode=1 exposurecompensation=1 ! 'video/x-raw(memory:NVMM), width=4608, height=3456, framerate=4/1, format=NV12' ! nvvidconv flip-method=0 ! xvimagesink -e

but nvgstcapture was not working.

as shown below.

It’s could be the frame rate report in device tree incorrect.
What the command shows v4l2-ctl -d /dev/video0 --list-formats-ext

This is v4l2-ctl -d /dev/video2 --list-formats-ext message.

What’s the min_framerate in device tree. Modify it to try.

here is device tree codes.

i want to display streamming 4624x3472 18fps mode in nvgstcapture.

			mode0 {/*mode imx686_MODE_4624x3472_CROP_18FPS*/
				mclk_khz = "24000";

				discontinuous_clk = "no";
				dpcm_enable = "false";
				cil_settletime = "0";

				/*dynamic_pixel_bit_depth = "12";*/
				csi_pixel_bit_depth = "10";
				mode_type = "bayer";
				pixel_phase = "rggb";

				active_w = "4624";  
				active_h = "3472";  
				readout_orientation = "0";
				line_length = "13856"; 
				inherent_gain = "1";
				mclk_multiplier = "37.5";
				pix_clk_hz = "900000000";

				gain_factor = "1000000";
				min_gain_val = "1000000"; /* dB */

				min_hdr_ratio = "";
				max_hdr_ratio = "";
				framerate_factor = "1000000";
				min_framerate = "16000000";
				max_framerate = "18000000";
				step_framerate = "1";
				default_framerate = "17000000";
				exposure_factor = "1000000";
				min_exp_time = "34"; /* us, 2 lines*/
				max_exp_time = "550385"; /* us */
				step_exp_time = "1";
				default_exp_time = "55555";/* us */
				embedded_metadata_height = "2";
			};

Could you try below configure.

				min_framerate = "4000000";
				default_framerate = "18000000";

As your recomend , i modified configure in device tree.

4624x3472 18fps : not working
4608x3456 18fps : not working
3840x3472 21fps : not working
3840x2160 30fps : working

i think it look like nvgstcapture only support frame rate control over 30fps .

what do you think about it?

Yes, your are right. You can download the source code of libgstnvarguscamerasrc.so(nvarguscamerasrc) to modify it.

You can also get source of nvgstcapture-1.0 to modify it.
And I will report to fix it in future release.

Have replace below libs at /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/gstreamer-1.0/libgstnvarguscamerasrc.so by attached file to try.
libgstnvarguscamerasrc.so.txt (85.0 KB)

hello ShaneCCC,

As your recommend , i replaced libary file.
It works good!!!

Thank you very much.
