Streamer issue

Ravikiran HV

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DM385

Hi all,

SW: ipnc rdk v3.2
HW: dm385

Using full feature use case and modified it.My data flow is,
Capture-->cameraLink(vpss)-->isp(vpss)-->ipcM3Out(vpss)-->ipcM3In(M3)-->encoder(M3)-->ipcBitsOut(M3)-->IpcBitsIn(A8)-->Streamer.

Here, I am not able to see RTSP streaming startup logs !! How to enable the streamer? {Pls note that streaming works if I use default fullfeature usecase.}

Thanks in advance :)

Hi,

Streaming is started by default by system_server.

Do you see message similar to one shown below in your log:

Play this stream using the URL:
rtsp://172.24.190.76:8557/PSIA/Streaming/channels/2?videoCodecType=H.264

Can you share your complete log?

regards,

Anand

Yes I am lookig for something like,
"Play this stream using the URL:
rtsp://172.24.190.76:8557/PSIA/Streaming/channels/2?videoCodecType=H.264" But No such logs visible when I run my use case. How to invoke that?

Thanks in advance :)

Hi Ravikiran,

From your log it looks like encoder is not running properly, enc link prints shown all 29 frames are skipped hence on A8 bitstream is not written to streaming circular buffer and streaming is not started.

Boot proc process times out since it didn't find any encoded frame in the streaming buffer and didn't start streaming process.

Can you pl. debug your chain for any stalls?

regards,

Anand

Anand Kulkarni,

Thank you for the response... I will debug from my side and get back.

So if encoder runs fine do you see the possibility of running streamer successfully?

Hi Ravikiran,

Yes,once encoded bitstream is written to streaming circular buffer,streaming process will start.

Hi Anand Kulkarni,

My encoder thread is running. It consumes the inputs buffers in encLink_tsk.c by calling EncLink_codecProcessData().
But If I check the output queue of the encoder inside the function EncLink_codecGetProcessedData() using Utils_queIsEmpty(&pObj->processDoneQue), It always says encoder output queue is empty. I am not sure why this is happening. Dynamic/Static params. what I set are as below:

[m3video] staticParams->videnc2Params.rateControlPreset =5
[m3video] staticParams->maxIntraFrameInterval=2147483640
[m3video] staticParams->maxIntraFrameInterval=2147483640
[m3video] staticParams->enableLongTermRefFrame =0
[m3video] staticParams->videnc2Params.maxInterFrameInterval=1
[m3video] staticParams->videnc2Params.maxHeight=1920
[m3video] staticParams->videnc2Params.maxWidth=1920
[m3video] staticParams->vuiCodingParams.numUnitsInTicks=1000
[m3video] staticParams->videnc2Params.inputDataMode =3
[m3video] staticParams->videnc2Params.outputDataMode =3
[m3video] dynamicParams->videnc2DynamicParams.targetFrameRate = 60000
[m3video] dynamicParams->videnc2DynamicParams.targetBitRate = 2000000
[m3video] dynamicParams->videnc2DynamicParams.intraFrameInterval = 30
[m3video] dynamicParams->videnc2DynamicParams.generateHeader =0
[m3video] dynamicParams->videnc2DynamicParams.captureWidth = 1920
[m3video] dynamicParams->videnc2DynamicParams.forceFrame = -1
[m3video] dynamicParams->videnc2DynamicParams.intraFrameInterval = 30
[m3video] dynamicParams->videnc2DynamicParams.inputWidth = 1920
[m3video] dynamicParams->videnc2DynamicParams.inputHeight= 1080
[m3video] dynamicParams->videnc2DynamicParams.size = 236
[m3video] dynamicParams->videnc2DynamicParams.intraFrameInterval = 30
[m3video] dynamicParams->videnc2DynamicParams.interFrameInterval = 1

Appreciate your help .

Now I enabled the ecoder logs. EncoderLink submit batches to the using "encoderEncLink_SubmitBatch()", if it return success, it puts full frames to the out queue ie processdone queue. But It is able to process only first 3/4 frames and suddenly stops somewhere. Can some one help me to know why it stops?

Hi Ravikiran,

Pl. check the following points:

In EncLink_codecGetProcessedData() fn Utils_bitbufPutFull() is called and next link is notified via System_sendLinkCmd().
EncLink_getFullBufs() and EncLink_putEmptyBufs() are called these APIs switch buffers with the next link.

Anand

Hi,

Could you also check if notifyNextLink/notifyPrevLink are set to TRU?

Hi Anand Kulkarni,

As i stated in my previous reply, pObj->processDoneQue() is Empty. That means Encoder has not placed any valid data in out queue. It calls Utils_bitbufPutFull() only if there is some valid data in pObj->processDoneQue(). In this case since there is no encoder output Utils_bitbufPutFull() is not called!!
It will inform next link only if there are some valid output in outQueue. I tried forcing the SendNotification to next Link to true every time. and NextLink i.e.IpcBitsOut(M3) runs, but it is not receiving any dat, bcz no buffers available @ outQueue of previous Link.
By Tracing this issue, I found some Problem with the EncLink_codecProcessTskFxn(). This is thread which is supposed to submit the batches to the codec & call Enclink_h264EncodeFrameBatch() function to process the data. This thread stops somehow after processing 2/3 frames. Can you tel me how to debug, why the thread stops!!
Looking forward for your reply .
Appreciate Your help.

Hi Brijesh Jadav,

If the encoder puts proper data in the output queue, then only we set notifynextLink = TRUE. In this case, My EncLink_codecProcessTskFxn() itself is not running properly.

It process first 2/3 frames and then stop running. So I am failing to submit any input to the encoder!! Looking forward for suggestions ..

Thank you :)

Hi Ravikiran,

In your first post you mentioned streaming works in default full feature usecase and you are facing issues only in your modified usecase.

So assuming there are no changes in enc parameters and enc link code,encoder should not have any issues.

So i suggest you to check part of chain that you have modified,you can connect isp link to a null link and check if it is fine.

regards,

Anand

Hi Anand,

I haven't modified anything in the original codebase except multich_tristream_fullfeature.c.(Say other parts of the code are Original code only)
I am sing full feature application in RULES.make i.e multich_tristream_fullfeature.c.

So in multich_tristream_fullfeature.c file I have done following changes.

Disabled cameraLink.
Enable NullSrc
disable dup/merge/fd/swosd/sclr/ etc.
Connected my NullSRC to ipcM3OutVpss Link.

The data flow is as below here onwards.
NullSrc ---> ipcOutM3vpss -->ipcM3IN-->ENCODER-->ipcBitsOutM3-->IpncBitsIn(A8)

ISSUE:

Streamer is not getting started!!
I am able to see encoder Logs as below, indicates encoder thread works fine(Resolved previous issue).
Some Error logs observed while running but encoder still works fine!!.

Hi Ravikiran,

The default usecase for IPNC is 'tristream' so when streamType is tristream system server waits for third stream to be available before starting streaming process.

But in your case third stream is not available so streaming doesn't start so you will see "Error: WaitStreamReady Fail"

You can do 2 things:

You can change STREAMTYPE_DEFAULT to 0 (single stream) in ../ipnc_rdk/ipnc_app/interface/inc/system_default.h file and build the code.Also you need to delete sysenv.cfg file present in /mnt/nand on IPNC so that your new default value is saved in nand.
From web GUI change to single stream.

regards,

Anand
