Frame size mismatch: got 43200 bytes from pipe, expected 38528

Hi, I want to record tof_depth/hires_large_color data simultaneously without using ROS.

When I try to record tof_depth data in this way::

First, I launch voxl-stream for tof_depth:

voxl-camera-server
voxl-streamer -i tof_depth -p 8901

Then I use ffmpeg to write the stream

ffmpeg -i rtsp://192.168.1.16:8901/live \
       -f rawvideo -pix_fmt gray \
       -s 224x172 -r 10 \
       output.raw

I run into error in two terminals:

$ voxl-streamer -i tof_depth -p 8901
Waiting for pipe tof_depth to appear
Found Pipe
detected following stats from pipe:

Any idea? Is there a better way to record tof_depth/hires_large_color stream simultaneously? Thank you!

@黄充 , I think you found a small bug. We have two versions of TOF sensors:

• TOF V1 (which is EOL) with resolution 224x172 = 38528
• TOF V2 (which is what you probably have) with resolution 240x180 = 43200

As you can see in the source code, the json metadata for the pipe is initialized with w=224 and h=172, and it is never updated for the new TOF sensor.

src/hal3_camera_mgr.cpp · dev · voxl / VOXL SDK / Services / voxl-camera-server · GitLab

voxl-streamer reads the information from pipe metadata and thinks the image size will be 224x172 and when receives the actual data, detects a mismatch.

If you are able to re-build the camera server with changing the resolution in UpdatePipeJson, i think this will work for you. We will fix this as well.

Thank you

I just made a fix on a branch, but did not test it:

use correct dimensions of tof v2 frame in pipe json (43aa51a4) · Commits · voxl / VOXL SDK / Services / voxl-camera-server · GitLab

If you are able to test the fix, please give it a try and let me know if it works!

Thanks!
