- extractcolor: Extract a single color channel
- klvinjector: Inject test synchronous KLV metadata
- klvinspector: Inspect synchronous KLV metadata
- sfx3dnoise: Applies 3D noise to video
- videolevels: Scales monochrome 8- or 16-bit video to 8-bit, via manual setpoints or AGC
- GStreamer 1.2.x or newer (1.8 needed for KLV)
- Specific frame grabber SDKs and/or licenses
- Install GStreamer 1.2.x or newer (1.8 needed for KLV)
- Build project (see below) or download a release from Github (ZIP files under Assets)
- Extract files somewhere
- Create an environment variable
GST_PLUGIN_PATH
that points to where you extracted the files
Capture from a CoaXPress camera via a Kaya Komodo frame grabber, apply AGC to convert it to 8-bit monochrome, then output the video via A&B Software GigESim which generates GigE Vision video:
gst-launch-1.0 kayasrc ! videolevels auto=continuous ! gigesimsink
Then in another command capture the GigE Vision video via Pleora eBUS and display the video to the screen:
gst-launch-1.0 pleorasrc ! autovideoconvert ! autovideosink
- Install Git or download a ZIP archive
- Install CMake
- Install GStreamer distribution
or build from source. The installer should set
the installation path via the
GSTREAMER_1_0_ROOT_X86_64
environment variable. If not set, set the CMake variableGSTREAMER_ROOT
to your installation, the directory containingbin
andlib
- Install any camera or framegrabber software/SDK for those plugins you wish to
build. Check
cmake/modules
for any paths you may need to set. - Run the following commands from a terminal or command prompt, assuming CMake
and Git are in your
PATH
.
git clone https://github.com/joshdoe/gst-plugins-vision.git
cd gst-plugins-vision
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -G "Visual Studio 15 2017 Win64" ..
Steps should be similar on other Linux distributions.
apt-get install git cmake libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev liborc-0.4-dev
git clone https://github.com/joshdoe/gst-plugins-vision.git
cd gst-plugins-vision
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
To install plugins, first make sure you've set CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX
properly,
the default might not be desired (e.g., system path). For finer grained control
you can set PLUGIN_INSTALL_DIR
and related variables to specify exactly where
you want to install plugins
cmake --build . --target INSTALL
# or on Linux
make install
- To create a package of all compiled plugins run:
cmake --build . --target PACKAGE
# or on Linux
make package
KLV support is based on a GStreamer merge request that has yet to be merged, so it is included here in the klv library. By default KLV support is disabled. To enable it set the CMake flag ENABLE_KLV
. This will create the klv plugin, and make the pleora plugin dependent on the klv library. You'll need to ensure libgstklv-1.0-1.dll
is in the system PATH
on Windows, or on Linux make sure libgstklv-1.0-1.so
is in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH
.
