Hi,

Suppose it should work like this:

$./nvx_sample_object_tracker_nvxcu --source="device:///v4l2?index=0

Would you mind to give it a try?

Thanks.

Hi,

Confirm this with our internal team:
VisionWorks doesn’t support USB camera but only CSI camera (camera attached to board).

Thanks.

Hi,

After internal discussion, it’s possible to update the source code for v4l2 on your own.
(Sorry that we don’t have the bandwidth to support this.)

The v4l2 camera is working in our previous VisionWorks version but fails recently due to some change in the GStreamer.
The change requires you to input the detail width/height/format of the camera.

You can try to update the source inside nvxio to make the V4L2 camera works.
Here is a working pipeline for your reference:

gst-launch-1.0 v4l2src device="/dev/video0" ! \ "<b>video/x-raw, width=640, height=480, format=(string)YUY2</b>" ! \ xvimagesink -e"

Thanks.

This worked for me:

In file /nvxio/src/NVX/FrameSource/GStreamer/GStreamerCameraFrameSourceImpl.cpp

Change line 139
< stream << “video/x-raw, format=(string){RGB}, width=[1,” << configuration.frameWidth <<

stream << "video/x-raw, format=(string){<b>YUY2</b>}, width=[1," << configuration.frameWidth <<

And add in line 217 your image output size
< std::string caps_string(“video/x-raw, format=(string){”);

std::string caps_string("video/x-raw, <b>width=(int){640}, height=(int){480},</b> format=(string){");

Hi Michael. Can I ask you after that editing and compiling, what would be the correct command line? I’m still getting errors.

Thanks a lot.

Sorry to bother you guys, but this is not working. I have e-con systems quad csi camera and even modifying the source code it won’t work.

I can get the web cam working. Thx.
But “Objects were lost” easy even if I just move the object slowly. Is there any better object tracking example? Thx

hi @gschimmel,

in my case I just updated the line :

< stream << “video/x-raw, format=(string){RGB}, width=[1,” << configuration.frameWidth <<

to

< stream << “video/x-raw, format=(string){YUY2}, width=[1,” << configuration.frameWidth <<

Not

stream << "video/x-raw, format=(string){<b>YUY2</b>}, width=[1," << configuration.frameWidth <<

i did not use the "</b>" then compile the code and it works.
