Gstreamer don't stream h264

[volodymyrmakhit]

Hi all!

I try to stream h264.

i.MX:

gst-launch -v v4l2src device=/dev/video1 ! 'video/x-raw-yuv,width=640,height=480,framerate=30/1' ! ffmpegcolorspace ! vpuenc codec=6 ! rtph264pay ! tcpserversink host=192.168.0.2 port=500

PC:

gst-launch-1.0 -v tcpclientsrc host=192.168.0.2 port=500 ! gdpdepay ! rtph264depay ! avdec_h264 ! videoconvert ! autovideosink sync=false

Got error:

Setting pipeline to PAUSED ...

Pipeline is PREROLLING ...

ERROR: from element /GstPipeline:pipeline0/GstGDPDepay:gdpdepay0: Could not decode stream.

Additional debug info:

gstgdpdepay.c(396): gst_gdp_depay_chain (): /GstPipeline:pipeline0/GstGDPDepay:gdpdepay0:

GDP packet header does not validate

ERROR: pipeline doesn't want to preroll.

Setting pipeline to NULL ...

Freeing pipeline ...

Any suggestion please?

Thanks!

I captured video to file and it play by gplay.

But VLC could play it.

Video recorded by command:

gst-launch v4l2src device=/dev/video1 num-buffers=1000 ! 'video/x-raw-yuv,width=640,height=480,framerate=30/1' ! ffmpegcolorspace ! vpuenc codec=6 ! mp4mux ! filesink location=/home/root/h264.mp4

VLC error:

It is needed  to wrap the coded data of the i.MX6 VPU to a proper (say, MP4) file format.

Have a great day,

Yuri, it is not clear for me. I thought that mp4mux should be enough for wrap coded data. What I should add to pipeline? 

[Yuri]

You may try adding a parser before mp4mux :  h264parse ! mp4mux
