GStreamer-Python
This project helps in fetching continous live RTSP stream using GStreamer, Python and numpy without compromising on stream quality.
multiprocessing is used in python to avoid main thread getting stuck.
Getting Started
Just clone this Repo then in main_prg.py add your rtsp stream on below line:
self.camlink = '' #Add your RTSP cam linkPrerequisites
- Python 3
- GStreamer
- OpenCV (if you want to run this example as is)
- Numpy
1. Python 3 Installation
This you would already know
2. GStreamer Installation
You will need GStreamer. Installation instruction can be found on this link GStreamer Still for your quick reference will list installation instruction for Ubuntu:
apt-get install libgstreamer1.0-0 gstreamer1.0-plugins-base gstreamer1.0-plugins-good gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly gstreamer1.0-libav gstreamer1.0-doc gstreamer1.0-tools gstreamer1.0-x gstreamer1.0-alsa gstreamer1.0-gl gstreamer1.0-gtk3 gstreamer1.0-qt5 gstreamer1.0-pulseaudio
3. OpenCV Installation
There are various way to install OpenCV but example using (Conda, PIP or build from source). But for purpose of this project below is instruction using PIP
pip3 install opencv-contrib-python
4. Numpy Installation
pip3 install numpy
Running the program
Post cloning the Repo, go to repo dir (Also include cam link in main_prg.py as mentioned above).
python3 main_prg.pyLicense
