Rtsp inference and tracker

Please provide complete information as applicable to your setup.

• Hardware Platform (GPU) GPU A30
• DeepStream Version 6.4
• TensorRT Version 10.0.0.6
• NVIDIA GPU Driver Version (valid for GPU only) 535.104.12
• How to reproduce the issue ? (This is for bugs. Including which sample app is using, the configuration files content, the command line used and other details for reproducing)
python rtsp.py -i uri

Like i mentioned here im trying to add tracker to my already working pipeline but i get Core dumped error

How to reproduce the issue ? (This is for bugs. Including which sample app is using, the configuration files content, the command line used and other details for reproducing)

This sample shows how to add nvtracker in the pipeline. deepstream_python_apps/apps/deepstream-nvdsanalytics at master · NVIDIA-AI-IOT/deepstream_python_apps (github.com)

Thank you for the replay.
Just by running the python script i got the error

Yes, i have the tracker added to the pipeline and linked, it is successfully loaded but as soon as the window is created, it closes

streammux.link(pgie)
pgie.link(tracker)
tracker.link(nvvidconv)
nvvidconv.link(nvosd)
nvosd.link(sink)

The example that you have mentioned, use queues to link the streammux and the tracker.

I tried to replicate it but still not working

srcpad.link(sinkpad)
streammux.link(queue1)
queue1.link(pgie)
pgie.link(queue2)
queue2.link(tracker)
tracker.link(nvvidconv)
nvvidconv.link(nvosd)
nvosd.link(sink)

Can the sample deepstream_python_apps/apps/deepstream-nvdsanalytics at master · NVIDIA-AI-IOT/deepstream_python_apps (github.com) run in your device?

Yes, its working

I have done some tests to see how it works, by default it works without problems, but if I change the model to PeopleNet it gives a Segmentation failure (core dumped).

I modified it, I dont need the nvvidanalytics.
Im using kafka but not using the plugin, because I want to send the tracker meta and not the user one.

I want to access the tracker metadata like deepstream-test2.
since this is like an infinite l_frame I don’t really know how to. In order to send the important info to the topic

If the deepstream_python_apps/apps/deepstream-test2 at master · NVIDIA-AI-IOT/deepstream_python_apps (github.com) and deepstream_python_apps/apps/deepstream-nvdsanalytics at master · NVIDIA-AI-IOT/deepstream_python_apps (github.com) can works in your environment, there is no issue with DeepStream.

The tracker meta is in the batch user meta. Why do you mention “l_frame”? Please read the samples carefully and implement your code correctly.

You are right, I misunderstood about l_user and l_frame has nothing to do with it.

I just added the l_user code from deepstream-test2 in deepstream-nvdsanalytic and it works great.
Thank you.

Hi, im experiencing a problem with the tracker, I have added to rtsp_in_rtsp_out the tracker but the console is giving me the same error each frame.

Is there any way to calculate the “Tracker miscellaneous data buffer size”? So as not to allocate more than necessary.
