Hi there 👋

gst-pylonsrc's Issues

Mono8 to BGR24 conversion is getting failed

I have Basler acA1920-40gm camera. I need to convert mono8 video from camera to BGR24 in order to feed video into my application for further processing. First I tried with gst-launch-1.0 command to view stream from camera in PC.
gst-launch-1.0 -v pylonsrc width=1280 height=720 fps=10 imageformat=mono8 ! videoconvert ! 'video/x-raw,format=(string)BGR24' ! xvimagesink

Getting the following error
WARNING: erroneous pipeline: could not link videoconvert0 to xvimagesink0, videoconvert0 can't handle caps video/x-raw, format=(string)BGR24.
(If format is specified as YV12 it is working fine.)
pylon version : 5.1.0
Linux 18.04 64 bit.

pipeline for generating rtsp stream from pylon camera is failing

Hi,
Below is the command I am running, it is failing.

Contrast

How do i adjust contrast?
Do i need to add it myself?

limitbandwidth not implemented for all cameras?

Software: pylon 5.0.12 Camera Software Suite Linux x86 (64 bit)
Camera: acA720-520uc

When using the "limitbandwidth" parameter in the above setup I get:
WARNING: erroneous pipeline: could not set property "limitbandwidth" in element "pylonsrc0" to "off"

Is limitbandwidth not implemented for all cameras, or maybe got renamed?
I can see that a default camera bandwidthlimit of ~300MB/s is active.

Internal data stream error

Hi,

I'm fairly new to this gstreamer environment. I have a Basler Dart DaA2500-14uc camera, which I'm trying to use with your plugin. I got the plugin installed but when I try to use it I run into an error.
I'm not sure if I have wrong parameters for the pipeline or if it just doesn't work with this camera or what.

cross compiling for arm

Hi,
should i be able to cross compile this repo for an arm processor?

gst-pylonsrc not found

I tried to install your package by following the instructions:

1. autogen.sh
2. make
3. sudo make install

and everything compiled fine, but gst-inspect can not find pylonsrc, and I'm not sure why.
I can clearly see libgstpylonsrc.la and libgstpylonsrc.so files in /usr/local/lib/gstreamer1.0 directory, and this folder is added to both PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

I am using gstreamer 1.8.3 and Ubuntu 16.04, can you please help me? Thank you

Bayer RG 8 supported?

Hi,

I have a acA720-520uc camera using Pylon 5 and can select "Bayer RG 8" in the PylonViewerApp.
When trying to use it with gst-pylonsrc, I get:
start:<pylonsrc0> error: Camera doesn't support Bayer8.
The pipeline works with rgb8 without issues.

I wonder if the "Bayer RG 8" format listed in the PylonViewerApp is somehow different from "bayer8" here?

Cannot find proper location on Jeston baord

I'm using Jetson board and cannot find gstreamer-1.0/ folder...
do you have any experience related with this?

To install manually you need copy, move or symlink the following files

./plugins/libgstpylonsrc.la
./plugins/.libs/libgstpylonsrc.so
to either of these locations:

~/.local/share/gstreamer-1.0/plugins/ if you only want your user to be able to use this plugin
/usr/local/lib/gstreamer-1.0/ if you want this plugin to be available to every user.
Note that these are the default locations which might be different if you installed gstreamer with a custom location prefix.

UDP Stream cuts out after one second

Hello, my name is Frank and i have been playing with your plugin for the last few weeks. I can successfully display my Basler camera on my host machine using xvimagesink. My goal is to be able to stream the cameras image over UDP with the lowest latency possible. After trying many different pipelines, I was finally able to send a UDP stream to another computer. The stream only comes up for about one second and then dies. This is the pipeline I am currently running:

gst-launch-1.0 -c -v pylonsrc imageformat=mono8 ! "video/x-raw,format=GRAY8" ! decodebin ! videoconvert ! x264enc tune=zerolatency ! rtph264pay ! udpsink host=192.168.0.44 port=5000

As you can see it is nothing too crazy. I ran a GST_DEBUG=pylonsrc:5 command and go these results:

GST_DEBUG=pylonsrc:5 gst-launch-1.0 -c -v pylonsrc imageformat=mono8 ! "video/x-raw,format=GRAY8" ! decodebin ! videoconvert ! x264enc tune=zerolatency ! rtph264pay ! udpsink host=192.168.0.44 port=5000

The error message that comes up is "Error in the image processing loop."
I have looked at this in issue #5 but that solution did not work for me. I did exactly as instructed in that thread but it did not fix my issue.

This is the pipeline I am running on the external machine to display the UDP stream. I used it to play a recorded video file from the Basler camera and it works fine.

gst-launch-1.0 -v udpsrc port=5000 caps = "application/x-rtp, media=(string)video, clock-rate=(int)90000, encoding-name=(string)H264, payload=(int)96" ! rtph264depay ! decodebin ! videoconvert ! autovideosink sync=false

I am not sure if this is the correct way of doing things.Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Frank

HW triggering parameter

There are two modes for picture capture - trigger mode and continuous. Trigger mode asks for each frame seperately which while continuous mode makes the camera capture frames without software input. Continuous is default, but it can be disabled by setting the continuous parameter to false (default - true).
I'm trying to implement panorama video application using this api.

reading this, the Trigger mode sounds like hw triggering. then, should I set the trigger line parameters using pylonviewerapp, and then set the continuous=false in the gstreamer pipeline?

Thank you.

gstpylonsrc.c : Error in the image processing loop

I am using gst-pylonsrc for streaming Basler 1920 40 gm camera. I have added pylonsrc element and streaming video successfully. But after few min/few seconds stream stops and getting the following error.
"Error in the image processing loop"
I found that this error is coming when the grabresult is equal to failed even for single frame.
I want to skip this error and need to stream video continuously without any errors.
(Sometimes camera will stream for an hour and then throwing the error, and sometimes this happen within few seconds also.)

Kindly help me .

Related project gst-plugins-vision

Hello, I have a project gst-plugins-vision that contains many video source plugins for interfaces like Camera Link, GigE Vision, USB3 Vision, etc. I currently have support for GigE Vision via National Instruments IMAQdx, Matrox, Pleora, and IDS uEye. The last one only works with IDS uEye cameras, and the first four require a license (unless you have a Pleora-powered device).

I'm planning to create a plugin for Basler cameras, however I just came across your project here. I've been focusing on supporting Windows devices, though most plugins should be able to be built on Linux without too much effort (at least if the corresponding SDK supports it!). I imagine the same is true for your project, I believe Pylon should work nearly the same on Windows.

I use CMake for my build system (though might add support for meson soon), and would need to do so for your project. I'm opening this issue to get your thoughts on how best to incorporate your project. Just fork your code to my project (both are LGPL projects), or add CMake to your project and do any necessary fixes to get Windows supported.

Thanks for open sourcing your work!

Camera couldn't prepare buffer in time. Probably Dead.

Hi,

I was wondering if have ever ran into this problem before? I created a new ubuntu VM and for some reason keep running into this error trying to use the basler camera. I know for sure the camera isn't dead. When i switch to my first VM with the same command everything works fine. I'm not sure where to look to resolve this issue.

No such element or plugin 'pylonsrc'

I have compiled adn installed the libraries. but while running the following command
gst-inspect-1.0 pylonsrc

I am facing the issue and pylonsrc is not getting detected.

No such element or plugin 'pylonsrc'.

Any help would be appreciated.
