gst-plugins-bad vulkan build failure about tegra-demo-distro HOT 7 CLOSED

The recipe name in the PREFERRED_VERSION variables is not an override, so you should use an underscore as separator there, not a colon.

The config file that is being included by the distro config file honors a variable called GST_VERSION to make it easier to change the preferred version.

Looks like a patch is needed.

from tegra-demo-distro.

Do you need the Vulkan gstreamer plugins? If not, it might be simpler to disable it altogether with PACKAGECONFIG:remove = "vulkan" in a bbappend for the recipe.

If you do need them, I'd be happy to take a patch over at the meta-tegra repo.

Actually, we already have a patch for this, added with this commit.

I do need Vulkan gstreamer plugins. I'm targeting dunfell-l4t-r32.5.0.

I see the patch it in master, but not in :
https://github.com/OE4T/meta-tegra/tree/4af18120863c97a04795f294b542a8cf036347e1/contrib/recipes-multimedia/gstreamer-1.14/gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad
https://github.com/OE4T/meta-tegra/tree/dunfell-l4t-r32.5.0/contrib/recipes-multimedia/gstreamer-1.14/gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad

Then of course there are many updates to gst vulkan since 14. What's the limiting factor for 14?

from tegra-demo-distro.

vulkan in OE-Core dunfell is at version 1.1, so you shouldn't need the patch in dunfell-based branches unless you've got another layer where you're overriding with a newer version... in which case, you should be able to apply the patch there via a bbappend.

You don't have to use gstreamer 1.14, but we have the recipes, and default to using them in the demo distro, because they're more compatible with NVIDIA-provided binaries (their prebuilt gstreamer plugins and the gstreamer users in their prebuilt containers).

I'm working around it using

echo 'PACKAGECONFIG:remove:pn-gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad = "vulkan"' >> ./conf/local.conf

This had no impact

echo 'PREFERRED_VERSION:gstreamer1.0 = "1.16%"' >> ./conf/local.conf
echo 'PREFERRED_VERSION:gstreamer1.0-libav = "1.16%"' >> ./conf/local.conf
echo 'PREFERRED_VERSION:gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad = "1.16%"' >> ./conf/local.conf
echo 'PREFERRED_VERSION:gstreamer1.0-plugins-good = "1.16%"' >> ./conf/local.conf
echo 'PREFERRED_VERSION:gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly = "1.16%"' >> ./conf/local.conf
echo 'PREFERRED_VERSION:gstreamer1.0-plugins-base = "1.16%"' >> ./conf/local.conf

1.18 is the desired version.
