GDGstService

Gstreamer extension for godot. The GStreamer framework can be used in order to receive camera feeds from remote devices.

Demo Preview

Dependencies:

If you compile the extension with dynamic gstream libs (E.g. ./build_gd_gst.sh --godot-cpp-path=./godot-cpp ) the following dependencies are required:

• cmake
• git
• gstreamer1.0-libav
• gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad
• gstreamer1.0-plugins-base
• gstreamer1.0-plugins-good
• gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly
• gstreamer1.0-tools
• libgstreamer1.0-dev
• libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev
• libgstreamer-plugins-good1.0-0

Run example

Before importing the example project.godot you need to build and install the extension by executing

./setup_example.sh

Then run a corresponding srt stream.

Option 1: Run a stream using gst-launch and a video device:

gst-launch-1.0 -v v4l2src device=/dev/video0 ! videoconvert ! \
  x264enc bitrate=4000 tune=zerolatency speed-preset=superfast ! video/x-h264, profile=baseline ! \
  mpegtsmux ! srtsink uri=srt://:8888 latency=100

Option 2: Alternatively use gst-launch and a video file src:

gst-launch-1.0 -v filesrc location=/path/to/video.mp4 ! decodebin ! videoconvert ! \
    x264enc bitrate=4000 tune=zerolatency speed-preset=superfast ! video/x-h264, profile=baseline ! \
    mpegtsmux ! srtsink uri=srt://:8888 latency=100 

Import the example project.godot and run in debug.

Custom setup

Install the dependencies. Build the extentension

./build_gd_gst.sh  --godot-cpp-path=path/to/godot-cpp (version 4.3 tested on Ubuntu 20.04) 

and install it in your custom environment.
