ROI Encoding on Jetson AGX Thor

Can ROI encoding be performed on Jetson AGX Thor?

When I called enableROI from my application, I got an error.

In the video_encode sample code, it says “Note: This is not supported for T264”.

Hi,
You are right. Some functions are not supported on Jetpack 7 Thor. It is noted in
Jetson Linux API Reference: 01_video_encode (video encode) | NVIDIA Docs

Thanks.

Can ROI encoding be performed with “alternative implementations through GPU-accelerated paths”?

I would like to know whether the ROI encoding feature has been removed from the hardware encoder of the Jetson AGX Thor, or if JetPack 7 simply does not support the ROI encoding feature.

Hi Dane, where in the docs does it show this is no longer supported? the sample app still has it as an option (although it fails) and the api ref docs still list it for 38.2 Jetson Linux API Reference: NvVideoEncoder Class Reference | NVIDIA Docs … There are a number of other features such as setinputmetadata and perf that also are failing…. can these docs be updated and a release note showing all changes of feature support?

Hi,
The low-level software stack is Video Codec SDK and it does not support ROI encoding. We don’t have plan to enable it as of now. Please note this.
