1 year ago Have you read the README? Its pretty detailed about what to do. Has Large "Troubleshooting" section. (this is for UxPlay, not RPiPlay, the two have diverged quite a lot).
which model RPi? which operating system ? 32 or 64 bit? if its not raspberry Pi OS (Bullseye), have you patched gstreamer-plugins-good? for hardware video decoding? (Only works for Raspberry Pi OS, Ubuntu and Manjaro which have the kernel module from R Pi.
with -avdec, software video decoding you also need -vsync option in UxPlay 1.63. Gives OK video with -vsync
For best perfomance you need to use hardware video decoding. Then you get really good video, at least on R PI 4 model B
see https://github.com/FDH2/UxPlay/wiki/Gstreamer-Video4Linux2-plugin-patches
- EDIT: if you want screen centered+ black background, toggle "alt_left + enter" or "F11" to get full-screen mode on X11.
Hello I am not getting any video output with gstreamer window I tried running this from SSH: gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc ! videoconvert ! autovideosink
And it returned: Could not open display (null)
I then did: export DISPLAY=:0.0
And then the test ran fine with a small window showing on the desktop, however when i try Uxplay with the following command:
./uxplay -n PiStreamer -v4l2 -rpiwl
I am not getting any video but I can hear the audio being streamed even tho it said:
Edit: I got it working with ./uxplay -n PiStreamer -avdec But its very choppy and I preferred how it was shown in RPIPlay with the screen centred and black background.
I tried adding audio part to RPIPlay on my fork and i can play sound without video but I can't play sound with video, I haven't figured out why yet.
