Not able to start Streaming about amazon-kinesis-video-streams-producer-sdk-cpp HOT 20 CLOSED

@RushabhK23 please open a separate issue for this in the consume library. I will provide some answers here though for your convenience.

• If you want to use the standard sandboxed browsers environment then you need to rely on MSE, otherwise, you need to install flash or similar product that will allow some surface/hardware acceleration and most browsers/environments will not allow it.
• Most browsers support HLS/MPEG-DASH playback but all of these are "Live" or "VOD" playbacks and can not be real-time. You will always have at least the fragment duration latency.
• We are working on providing HLS/MPEG-DASH solution - no ETA yet.

Thanks rajdarbar for checking the Kinesis Video Stream SDK.

Could you provide us details on your setup?

• the environment you are running the demo application from
  (e.g. ubuntu linux, mac or raspberry pi )
• which camera device are you using for streaming (e.g. usb camera or built in)..

Hi unicornss,

i am using ubuntu 17.04 and usb webcam camera.
Also i want to know how to store kinesis video stream in my s3 bucket. and where i can see my all kinesis stored videos.

Thanks

Hi Raj,

To learn more about the Kinesis Video Streams please refer the documentation here:

• http://docs.aws.amazon.com/kinesisvideostreams/latest/dg/what-is-kinesis-video.html

Additional Readings:

• https://aws.amazon.com/kinesis/video-streams/
• https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/amazon-kinesis-video-streams-serverless-video-ingestion-and-storage-for-vision-enabled-apps/

The error you are seeing "Not all elements could be created. " suggests that your GStreamer pipeline does not have all elements which could be that camera is not detected/loaded (drivers).

Can you run the gst-launch-1.0 to see if the USB video camera is able to capture the video through GStreamer pipeline?
Example:
gst-launch-1.0 v4l2src device=/dev/video0 ! video/x-raw,width=1280,height=720,framerate=30/1 ! xvimagesink

If your camera is supported and drivers are installed correctly then you should be able to see the camera output displayed on your computer screen.

You can also run the command gst-inspect-1.0 to check which GStreamer plugins are available in your system.
Hope this helps you to debug the setup and required drivers for your system.
You can also refer to the https://github.com/awslabs/amazon-kinesis-video-streams-producer-sdk-cpp/blob/master/README.md for troubleshooting.

Hi unicornss,

i need your one help ,
i want to achive following steps

1)Pass live stream to kinesis video stream.
2)Store this stream in s3 bucket.
3)Using kinesis video stream api show that live stream in mobile.

first step is done using offline video , but how can i show that same video in mobile using kinesis video stream api.

amazon-rekognition-video-analyzer (https://github.com/awslabs/amazon-rekognition-video-analyzer.git) uses kinesis video stream?

Thanks

Hi Raj,

1) Pass live stream to kinesis video stream.

Glad you are able to store offline video to kinesis video stream.
The demo sample should be able to get the video stream from a video camera or from laptop built-in webcam sent to Kinesis Video Streams service.

2)Store this stream in s3 bucket.
Kinesis Video Streams stores the media in S3 and you can refer the API for GetMedia in https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kinesisvideostreams/latest/dg/API_Operations_Amazon_Kinesis_Video_Streams_Media.html

3)Using kinesis video stream api show that live stream in mobile
There is no support for get media to get live streaming yet. Kinesis Video Streams console provides a sample of using the get media api for rending the video in the browser.

4. Yes, the live stream analysis in amazon-rekognition uses Kinesis Video Streams.

Hope this helps.

Thank you so much unicornss. i am able to start live stream now with your help .
i have one more question is that what is the service name of kinesis video stream
and also is there any lambda function available using that i can put my kinesis video stream videos in s3 bucket .

thanks
Raj

from amazon-kinesis-video-streams-producer-sdk-cpp.

Hi Raj,

If you are specifying service name you should use in IAM policy for our service, then it is kinesisvideo. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kinesisvideostreams/latest/dg/how-iam.html

Now we don't have lambda function for this purpose. But the video data is already store in our S3 bucket if your stream's data retention is not 0. You can use Parser Library to get your video data.

Thanks,
ZH

Closing this issue as the user is able to stream successfully. If needed pl. an open a separate issue for parsing the video. https://github.com/aws/amazon-kinesis-video-streams-parser-library

from amazon-kinesis-video-streams-producer-sdk-cpp.

Hi @unicornss, in your snippet:

gst-launch-1.0 v4l2src device=/dev/video0 ! video/x-raw,width=1280,height=720,framerate=30/1 ! xvimagesink

Should it matter if I am using xvimagesink or autovideosink? Using autovideosink I do get the camera input displayed on-screen. I found this thread and ran xvinfo and tells me I have no adapters present. However, I assume that shouldn't matter for the gstreamer demo since it's CLI-based, it shouldn't need X configuration. Is there another test you could recommend?

Edit: I have found the RPi tutorial PDF and the troubleshooting section on the readme.md but I have not seen documentation about which versions of OS and dependencies are tested/supported. Does that exist?

from amazon-kinesis-video-streams-producer-sdk-cpp.

GStreamer demo app now can take command line arguments for height, width and framerate.

 "Usage: AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=SAMPLEKEY AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=SAMPLESECRET ./kinesis_video_gstreamer_sample_app my-stream-name -w width -h height -f framerate -b bitrateInKBPS");

A. If the resolution is provided then the sample will try to check if the camera supports that resolution. If it does detect that the camera can support the resolution supplied in the command line, then streaming starts; else, it will fail with an error msg Resolution not supported.

B. If no resolution is specified, the demo will try to use these three resolutions
1920x1080,
1280x720 and
640x480 in that order (highest resolution first) and will start streaming once the camera supported resolution is detected.

You can also use GST_DEBUG=4 at the start of the command line to see the capabilties of the camera, or if any Element/Pipeline error you notice in your environment.

Please let us know if this helps.

It looks like none of my GST plugins are loading. I am not super familiar with GST but I suppose that might impact the element factories that are throwing warnings too. I think I need to verify that the system GST plugin .so's are all linked properly but it's been awhile since I did that with a Linux/C++ program. Here's the logs.

gst-output.txt
sample-app.txt

Also, if it's easier I can work toward just this ticket or just #33 to avoid confusion. I have two RPi's but only one picamera so I can only test one at a time. For this ticket, I am using a slightly newer board RPi 2 Model B also using a recently installed and updated Raspbian.

from amazon-kinesis-video-streams-producer-sdk-cpp.

I just noticed the log in gst-output.txt:

0:00:00.001101454 800 0xb27e00 INFO GST_INIT gst.c:508:init_pre: Using library installed in /home/pi/amazon-kinesis-video-streams-producer-sdk-cpp/downloads/local/lib

My download directory is in kinesis-video-native-build since I changed directories there to run the install-script. Copied the files from /home/pi/amazon-kinesis-video-streams-producer-sdk-cpp/kinesis-video-native-build/downloads/local/lib to /home/pi/amazon-kinesis-video-streams-producer-sdk-cpp/downloads/local/lib and GST seems to find the plugins now. This issue might be due to not following installation steps properly but I thought running install-script in kinesis-video-native-build was OK (unless I did something else wrong too!). I don't think that applies to this issue though. If I do another install later and have the same directory problem, I will try to get it reproducible and file an issue.

Unfortunately, this install and RPi board is giving me issue #33 too. I don't think I have any reason to keep posting on this issue (18) at this point.

Can someone tell me about working get media api for rending the video in the browser ??

from amazon-kinesis-video-streams-producer-sdk-cpp.

Hi Unicornss , I am working on saving Kinesis video stream into my own S3 bucket using lambda function and I have written the lambda function for the same but facing issue. I could see my video in S3 but that can not be played in the browser. I think its the issue with video parsing,need your help here. Please let me know what all details you need

from amazon-kinesis-video-streams-producer-sdk-cpp.

@teamone-saml

Could you elaborate on

could see my video in S3 but that can not be played in the browser

• How are you saving the ingested KVS stream into a file in S3?
• Are you using Kinesis video streams parser library?
• While ingesting the file are able to see in live stream in the console? Are you able to use HLS viewer sample for playback?

As posted by @zhiyua-git in here you can refer to the parser library samples to save the ingested video stream into local files and then upload to S3.

is there any possible way restart to Kinesis video stream every 1 hour . i can able to stream video in aws console i need to restart every one hour of period.

from amazon-kinesis-video-streams-producer-sdk-cpp.

Hi @hameedriswan7 ,

Can you clarify more on why do you want to restart KVS stream every 1 hour? Internally due to connection expiration for security, it is already doing connection restart for every 40 minutes.

Thanks,

Hi @zhiyua-git,
Using getmedia i can retrieve stream in local as Single stream.With single stream i cannot able to upload in S3 it cause Storage issue. so i am running live stream using putmedia in jar file.In that if i stop and again start it can break the stream i can upload to S3 1 hour breakage of live stream video stored as normal in video in local.Again restart the stream get another 1 hour video like the way i asked.

These things are need to complete the process link given below please refer.For that still i am not getting any feature. so i decide to breal stream every hour to upload in s3 for that i need to restart stream for every one hour. Rekognation.

from amazon-kinesis-video-streams-producer-sdk-cpp.

Hi @hameedriswan7 ,

Rather than restarting PutMedia every hour, sound like you would want to restart on GetMedia side every hour, in that way, you video can be continuously sending.

You can do the disconnect on GetMedia using https://github.com/aws/amazon-kinesis-video-streams-parser-library/blob/57063da12cbfbfa95abbf04bb8d472fe559e7497/src/main/java/com/amazonaws/kinesisvideo/parser/examples/KinesisVideoExample.java#L126-L134.
