voxl-streamer service down when using H.265

[Jskim]

Hi!
1. We are using VOXL2 mini.
2. VOXL2 mini version is SDK 1.4.3.
3. Problem with voxl-streamer when using uvc camera h.265 encoder

1. When using "h.265" in voxl-streamer.conf, voxl-streamer service dies.
   There is no problem at all in h.264.
   The player we use is VLC and potplayer.

2. The config settings are as follows.
   [voxl-uvc-server.conf]
   -Resolution = 640x480
   -Frame = 20
   [voxl-streamer.conf]
   Bandwidth = 500000
   encoder = "h.265"

3. The error code is as follows.
   

4) Please tell me the solution.

JS, Kim

Hello @Jskim,

the parameter in voxl-streamer.conf should be h265, not h.265, i think behavior is undefined otherwise. The two options are h264 and h265. There should probably be a check for this.. I will add...

Please try h265 and let me know if that fixes the issue.

Hi Ales,

I think the above statement is wrong. Sorry. I inputted it as h265.

There is no problem with h264, but voxl-streamer dies when I use only h265.

Thanks,

@Jskim , can you please run voxl-streamer in foreground and paste the whole output (the full error description is cut off by the screen shot).

Also please check which version of voxl-streamer you are using (voxl-version | grep voxl-streamer)

Thanks!

Currently alive, but have to wait until the streamer dies. Sometimes he dies.

[The phenomenon is as follows]
Video Player restart
Video works normally (about 3 minutes)
Streamer is not dead, but the video is frozen.
Looking at the top command contents, Streamer CPU usage is 2.3%.

It stops for 5 minutes and then works normally again (about 1 minute).

It stops again. (CPU usage 1.9%)
Normal operation after 5 minutes
Video freezes after 1 minute (CPU usage 2.3%)

Thanks,

Finally, I tried a test.
I tried changing the video player and the Streamer died immediately.
The conclusion is that the Streamer died even when it was in the foreground.

Thanks,
