Play RTSP stream issue on Lollipop

Igor — Sun, 26 Jun 2016 11:54:28 GMT

Hi all,
I'm using a SabreSD board as RTSP server.
It has been loaded linux 4.1.15 along with tw6869 device driver.
An avc8000nano board is connected to Mini-PCIe slot on SabreSD. Two cameras are connected on channels vch0 and vch1.
The RTSP server is the Gateworks gst-rtsp-server test-launch application.

The pipelines are the following:

gst-variable-rtsp-server -p 9001 -u "imxv4l2videosrc device=/dev/video0 queue-size=55 ! imxipuvideotransform deinterlace=true ! imxvpuenc_h264 bitrate=5000 ! h264parse ! rtph264pay name=pay0 pt=96"

gst-variable-rtsp-server -p 9002 -u "imxv4l2videosrc device=/dev/video1 queue-size=55 ! imxipuvideotransform deinterlace=true ! imxvpuenc_h264 bitrate=5000 ! h264parse ! rtph264pay name=pay0 pt=96"

The RTSP client is a SabreSD board with Android 5.1.1 (including the multimedia extended packages).

The problem is that OMXplayer is not able to play the streaming video.

OMXPlayer returns these errors:

The previous pipelines and the same 'apk' app work well on the same board with Android JB 4.3.

Further we have no problem using VLC as client in a in Windows PC.

I don’t understand where is the problem.

Can someone help me?

This problem blocks our project.

Thanks in advance,

Igor

I solved the problem by setting the property of the video's mode for the plugin "v4l2". For example:

"v4l2src device=/dev/video0 norm=255" or

"imxv4l2videosrc device=/dev/video0 imx-capture-mode=3"
