Unable to run jetson_multimedia_api 03_video_cuda_enc example inside jetpack:r35.3.1 container: No protocol specified

[sderosa1]

I am trying to run the jetson_multimedia_api sample 03_video_cuda_enc, /usr/src/jetson_multimedia_api/samples/03_video_cuda_enc/, but i am getting the following error:

No protocol specified
No EGL Display 
nvbufsurftransform: Could not get EGL display connection
No protocol specified
Could not get EGL display connection

I am running this inside a nvcr.io/nvidia/l4t-jetpack:r35.3.1 container on an Orin (not through ssh). My full docker run command is:
docker run -it --rm --net=host --runtime nvidia -e DISPLAY=$DISPLAY -v /tmp/.X11-unix/:/tmp/.X11-unix nvcr.io/nvidia/l4t-jetpack:r35.3.1 bash. Once inside the container i run the following:

apt install libdrm-dev libvulkan-dev
cd /usr/src/jetson_multimedia_api/samples/03_video_cuda_enc
make
./video_cuda_enc 

Any idea how to resolve this? Thanks!

Hi,
This is configured in the docker run command:

-e DISPLAY=$DISPLAY

Please check if you configure DISPLAY before docker run

[sderosa1]

confirmed that DISPLAY is set to the following both inside and outside the container:

# echo $DISPLAY
:0

Hi,
Please try the commands:

$ export DISPLAY=:0
$ xrandr
$ xhost +
$ sudo docker run -it --rm --net=host --runtime nvidia -e DISPLAY=$DISPLAY -v /tmp/.X11-unix/:/tmp/.X11-unix nvcr.io/nvidia/l4t-jetpack:r35.3.1

If it fails in xrandr, please set DISPLAY=:1 and try again.

export DISPLAY=:1 resolves the No protocol specified error i was getting. Now i get:

root@EAC-5000:/home/ubuntu/workspace/gmsl-camera-manager# xrandr
Can't open display :1

which is expected since im remoted into the container.

However, i am still getting the following errors (warnings?)

No EGL Display 
nvbufsurftransform: Could not get EGL display connection
nvbuf_utils: Could not get EGL display connection

Hi,
Do you use AGX Orin developer kit or your custom board? We don’t see the issue on developer kit.
