Hi there I am trying to capture the output of an IP camera by pyds.get_nvds_buf_surface() in deepstream_test_3.py in deepstream 5 python examples. But when I run the code, the following error occurred: Traceback (most recent call last): File “test3_IPCamera.py”, line 2115, in tiler_src_pad_buffer…

Pyds.get_nvds_buf_surface() does not work for IP Camera!

I think this is a wrong forum.
I found the answer in the DeepStream SDK forum: use nvvideoconvert and capsfilter to convert images to RGBA.
