Hi, I have use gstreamer like this: rtspsrc -> decodebin -> nvvidconv -> nvvideosink -> EGLImage and now I want to use multimedia_api to improve performence. My solution is follow: rtspsrc -> rtph264depay -> appsink -> and use the multimedia_api to decode video as the sample 00_video_decode → fd to EGLImage. Does this solution feasible ? Or there are any solution to replace gstreamer ? Thanks.

Hi ClancyLian, The decodebin is equal to ‘qtdemux ! h264parse ! omxh264dec’. omxh264dec is with same HW engine as NvVideoDecoder. Your proposal is also good to go.

Hi ClancyLian, You can use NvBuffer APIs to get fd in appsink. /** * This method must be used to extract dmabuf_fd of the hardware buffer. * @param[in] nvbuf Specifies the `hw_buffer`. * @param[out] dmabuf_fd Returns DMABUF FD of `hw_buffer`. * * @returns 0 for success, -1 for failure. */ int ExtractFdFromNvBuffer (void *nvbuf, int *dmabuf_fd); /** * This method must be used for releasing dmabuf_fd. * Obtained using ExtractfdFromNvBuffer API. * @param[in] dmabuf_fd Specifies the `dmabuf_fd` to release. * * @returns 0 for success, -1 for failure. */ int NvReleaseFd (int dmabuf_fd); Please refer to attached test3.cpp $ export MMAPI_INCLUDE=/home/nvidia/tegra_multimedia_api/include $ export MMAPI_CLASS=/home/nvidia/tegra_multimedia_api/samples/common/classes $ export USR_LIB=/usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu $ g++ -Wall -std=c++11 test3.cpp -o test3 $(pkg-config --cflags --libs gstreamer-app-1.0) -ldl -I$MMAPI_INCLUDE /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/tegra/libnvbuf_utils.so $MMAPI_CLASS/NvEglRenderer.o $MMAPI_CLASS/NvElement.o $MMAPI_CLASS/NvElementProfiler.o $MMAPI_CLASS/NvLogging.o $USR_LIB/libEGL.so $USR_LIB/libGLESv2.so $USR_LIB/libX11.so $ export DISPLAY=:0 $ ./test3 Test video is bourne_ultimatum_trailer.zip - Download The Bourne Ultimatum - High Definition (1080p) Theatrical Trailer - dvdloc8.com test3.zip (1.47 KB)

Hi, DaneLLL, You may misunderstand my question. The gstreamer is high-level API and the multimedia_api is lower-level API. If I use gstreamer, I used decodebin to decode my video, and you gave me demo also use decodebin. My idea is that I use gstreamer to get encode data, and use NvVideoDecoder to decode my video. Does this is more efficient ? And your demo is also a solution, But I want to improve my throughput, or let deocde more efficient. Thanks.

Hi DaneLLL, The link for the test3.zip attachment doesn’t work. Any way to put it back up? Thanks.

Hi, I can download and unzip it. Probably your browser blocks the download?

I tried several browsers. Works today in the browser I originally tried it in.

Hi I compiled “test3.cpp” with Jetson TX2, and it works well. but it doesn’t work with Jetson nano. I get following error message… ======================================================== nvbuf_utils: dmabuf_fd 1125 mapped entry NOT found nvbuf_utils: Can not get HW buffer from FD… Exiting… I think that failed to release buffer, function of “NvReleaseFd(dmabuf_fd)”. Does anyone know measures for this error? thanks

Hi fujigen884, On r32.1, you do not need to call NvReleaseFd(). Please remove the line and try again.

Hi DaneLLL, I removed “NvReleaseFd()”, so it works well! Thanks for your advice!!

Hello, Even logged in I cannot dowload the test file provided, I get an access denied error. Is there a way to dowload the sample code? Best regatds

Hi, We are checking why the link is broken. There is one more sample: [image] How to run RTP Camera in deepstream on Nano DeepStream SDK Hi, We are checking the issue.

use gstreamer or tegra_multimedia_api to decode video would be more efficient and increase throughpu...
