Unable to send event_seek while using udpsink and gstd

[drewjgray]

Hi, I am trying to send a simple seek event while using gstd (0.13.2) and it is failing. I am using GStreamer 1.14.5 on Jetson Nano 2GB 32.6.1.

My streaming pipeline is:

client.pipeline_create(
        'playback',
        'splitmuxsrc location=*.mp4 accept-events=true \
            ! decodebin \
            ! nvvidconv \
            ! nvv4l2h264enc bitrate=8000000 insert-sps-pps=true \
            ! video/x-h264 \
            ! rtph264pay config-interval=1 pt=96 \
            ! udpsink host=localhost port=8004'
    )

My seek event code is:

client.event_seek('playback', 1.0, 3, 1, 1, 2000000000, 1, -1)

When I send the event I get the error:

gstdnoreader gstd_no_reader.c:77:gstd_no_reader_read:<GstdNoReader@0x55826e94a0> Unable to read from this resource

Interestingly, if I use a rtspsink pipeline the seek event works as expected. I am wondering if there is something in the udpsink signal handling while using gstd that is making the seek event fail?
