Summary

How to configure the Video Ingestion module to utilize GStreamer*.

  • Installed Intel® Edge Insights for Industrial (Intel® EII)
  • Unable to ingest video with GStreamer*
Resolution

The Video Ingestion module by defaults utilizes OpenCV* to ingest the input video.

{

 "type": "gstreamer",

 "pipeline": "multifilesrc loop=TRUE stop-index=0 location=./test_videos/pcb_d2000.avi ! h264parse ! decodebin ! videoconvert ! video/x-raw,format=BGR ! appsink"
