Hi

when 2 nvoverlaysink set as"overlay=2",I get the iv_renderer.overlay.yuv420 error.

one nvoverlaysink sets as “overlay=2” and another nvoverlaysink sets as “overlay=1” works well.

I also setted win_mask and stop the x11.I’m not sure the setting is successful.
After display become black, I setted “echo 0x0 > device/win_mask”. And got error “-su: echo: write error: Invalid argument”

# sudo -s 
    # cd /sys/class/graphics/fb0 
    # echo 4 > blank 
    # echo 0x0 > device/win_mask 
    # echo 0x3f > device/win_mask 
    # echo 0 > blank 
    $ sudo service lightdm stop

Hi,
For running two overlays you have to set one as onerlay=1 and the other as overlay=2. You may refer to

Hi
Thank you for your replay.

①what is max number of overlay?
②set as “overlay=2”,“overlay=1”,“overlay=1” for 3 overlays,?
③Is jetson-nano’ max number of overlay same as jetson-tx1,tx2?

Tx2 seen has 6 overlays

Hi,
[VIDEO PLAYBACK WITH GSTREAMER-1.0] in gstreamer user guide is specific to TX2. For Jetson Nano, maximum overlay number is 2. If you have more than two udp sources, you can utilize nvcompositor plugins to composite multiple sources into one overlay. There is an example pipeline in the document.

Hi

Thank you for the advice.
Actually,I want nvcompositor.
I tried 4 upd, but cpu utiliztion up to 250%.
Does nvcompositor use HW hw acceleration?

Hi,

Yes, it is hardware accelerated.

For profiling stats, you can execute ‘sudo tegrastats’ to get CPU frequency and loading in percentage.
