gst-rpicamsrc is a GStreamer wrapper around the raspivid/raspistill | |
functionality of the RaspberryPi, providing a GStreamer | |
source element capturing from the Rpi camera. | |
** rpicamsrc has moved ** | |
GStreamer 1.18 will include rpicamsrc directly. The GStreamer git master repository already | |
includes it, plus fixes beyond this tree. Future development will happen directly in the | |
GStreamer repositories, and this tree archived. | |
Old README: | |
To use it, you need GStreamer 1.0. As of the last time this README | |
was updated, Raspbian Jessie has GStreamer 1.4.4, which is recent enough. | |
Install the GStreamer 1.0 dev packages, then just build and install this module. | |
apt-get install autoconf automake libtool pkg-config libgstreamer1.0-dev \ | |
libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev libraspberrypi-dev | |
For example, again on Raspbian: | |
./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/ | |
make | |
sudo make install | |
Then, you can try out the camera with a pipeline line: | |
gst-launch-1.0 rpicamsrc bitrate=1000000 ! filesink location=test.h264 | |
should produce a file called test.h264, while showing a preview window | |
on the screen. | |
gst-inspect-1.0 rpicamsrc to get an idea of the properties that have been | |
implemented. | |
See the REQUIREMENTS file for the full list of build requirements. |
