Samsung/ChromiumGStreamerBackend

Cannot paly video using Gstreamerbackend

getsoubl opened this issue · 3 comments

We are working on the latest chromium release that we integrated with the GStreamer Samsung Backend, following the instruction from the official website.

We try to play videos without success(local videos, videos on youtube).
It seems that the video never starts.
In chromium flags the gstreamer option is enabled. Using gstremer as standalone application all are fine.

We use a Beebox Asrock ( http://www.asrock.com/microsite/Beebox/ )with the latest intel drivers in which the latest Debian 9 has been installed.

Any error in console is appeared. Could you please give us a hint?
Chromium starts using ./chrome --no-sandbox

same issue for me, did you find a solution since one year ? :)

gstreamer stop after GstTypeFindElement without errors or warnings.

play

update: after removing the glimagesink and let the default video-sink to xvimagesink, playback is functional but appear in a separate window.

@omasse-linaro Hi, did you get anywhere with this? We're trying to support HW video acceleration on NVIDIA Tegra 3.

The PDK comes with gstreamer examples which support HW video acceleration via OpenMax, but there is also support in the upstream kernel for VDPAU - which we might be able to integrate with the existing (and supported) VA-API backend in Chromium.

I'm trying to decide which is the best way forward. Any experience you had with this backend would be useful to know about. Thank you!
