Hi,
I’m trying to run one of the samples from GitHub - NVIDIA-AI-IOT/deepstream_python_apps: DeepStream SDK Python bindings and sample applications and getting following error:

Any hints for what could be wrong with my setup?

Thanks

Hi,
Could you try without sudo. It uses nveglglessink in frame rendering and it may not work in root permission. Please run in user and set export DISPLAY=:0(or 1).

Hi,
Have tried without sudo, same result, but managed to run once have completed steps according to python samples HOWTO.

  1. moved deepstream samples to <DeepStream 5.0 ROOT>/sources/deepstream_python_apps
  2. cd /opt/nvidia/deepstream/deepstream/lib && python3 setup.py install

Thank you
