Weird gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly behaviour

• Hardware Platform (Jetson / GPU) Jetson Orin Nano
• DeepStream Version 7.0
• JetPack Version (valid for Jetson only) 6.0
• TensorRT Version 8.6.2

I was trying to read a rtsp stream byt using this pipeline and was getting this message

After uninstalling gstreamer1.0-pluglins-ugly, I was able to read the stream.

Why does that happen?Are there any workarounds?

this was the command I was using to test it
GST_DEBUG=3 gst-launch-1.0 uridecodebin uri="<my-url-link>" ! fakevideosink

    case GST_RESOURCE_ERROR_READ:
      return _("Could not read from resource.");

This is caused by the server not responding, not a issue with gstreamer or deepstream.

The following command line works fine

gst-launch-1.0 uridecodebin uri=file:///opt/nvidia/deepstream/deepstream/samples/streams/sample_720p.h264 ! fakevideosink

The thing is I had to remove the lib for it to work on Jetson. I didn’t have to remove it for it to work on my notebook. I wonder what might be causing this. So far I am managing to work without the plugins provided by gstreamer1.0-pluglins-ugly. Not sure if it is some weird interaction with the camera. I just hope to fix it so I can use these extra plugins if I need them in the future.

This is indeed a strange problem. I don’t know the reason and can’t reproduce it on my AGX Orin.

Please use the following command to dump the log after installing the gstreamer1.0-pluglins-ugly.

GST_DEBUG_NO_COLOR=1 GST_DEBUG=7 gst-launch-1.0 uridecodebin uri=xxx ! fakevideosink  > log.log 2>&1

Or try the following command to reinstall the dependencies

apt-get update
apt-get install -y gstreamer1.0-libav
# ubuntu 22.04
apt-get install --reinstall -y gstreamer1.0-plugins-good gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly  libswresample-dev libavutil-dev libavutil56 libavcodec-dev libavcodec58 libavformat-dev libavformat58 libavfilter7 libde265-dev libde265-0 libx265-199 libx264-163 libvpx7 libmpeg2encpp-2.1-0 libmpeg2-4 libmpg123-0

There is no update from you for a period, assuming this is not an issue anymore. Hence we are closing this topic. If need further support, please open a new one. Thanks
