IMX415 + NPU demo on ROCK 5B

Made necessary changes, and able to built ff-rknn. Look like imx415 (MIPI-based) not possible to test isn’t it? Tried rkisp_mainpath video11 but it is not working. Can you share vid-3.mp4 file for testing? let me know the change for mipi camera.

You need the FFmpeg with MIPI support, see my previous comment.

Yes I did build the FFmpeg with v4l2. - https://github.com/hbiyik/FFmpeg.git

This is an FFmpeg issue. Most likely you need to disable h264_v4l2m2m and a few others, note the codec used for MIPI will be RAW, so you need to adjust the main loop, to get packet (raw) only and not frames (there is no decoding in this case).

Regarding the vid-3.mp4, i don’t think i can share it without paying the author. But you find it on pexels, or similar videos like this: https://www.pexels.com/video/people-crossing-the-road-10697014/
and https://www.pexels.com/@georgemorina/gallery/

I have created ff-rknn-v4l2 to read from the camera. I am thinking to share the code on gitlab.
The only issue is the latency, 5s… a bit annoying…

Can you please share your FFmpeg configure steps. I tried to use ./configure --enable-libv4l2 --disable-v4l2-m2m

Try this config:

Look like I have weird problems when i try to build ffmpeg in target.

$ ./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-libopenh264 --disable-vaapi --disable-vdpau --disable-decoder=h264_v4l2m2m --disable-decoder=vp8_v4l2m2m --disable-decoder=mpeg2_v4l2m2m --disable-decoder=mpeg4_v4l2m2m --disable-libxvid --disable-libx264 --disable-libx265 --enable-rkmpp --enable-nonfree --enable-gpl --enable-version3 --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libpulse --enable-libv4l2 --enable-libdrm --enable-libxml2 --enable-librtmp --enable-libfreetype --enable-openssl --enable-opengl --enable-libopus --enable-libvorbis --disable-shared --enable-decoder='aac,ac3,flac' --extra-cflags=-I/usr/src/linux-headers-5.10.110-15-rockchip/include --disable-cuvid 
ERROR: libdrm not found using pkg-config

even if install the apt libdrm-dev it is reproducing again as it look for libdrm in --extra-cflags=-I/usr/src/linux-headers-5.10.110-15-rockchip/include which is technically not there.

When i skop --extra-cflags option it is continuing and asking many packages like libfreetype-dev libmp3lame-dev libopus-dev libpulse-dev librtmp-dev libv4l-dev libvorbis-dev libxml2-dev

Do we have a right procedure to build the things in target for this FFmpeg. I’m using official bullseye_xfce_b39.img

Let me know I’m fully on to it.

Because you enabled them, it asked for the packages. You should install or disable the packages (disabling them is not a good idea).

Two guys are actively working on FFmpeg, please ask them for the best parameters.
I don’t use the official image.

Obs:
You can suppress --extra-cflags

Okay. I will check these options. Apart from ffmpeg, I did check your previous sdl2-cam where I can use the default rknn.

When I change the rknn that I built with rknn_model_zoo it seem failing after post processing. the same rknn was able to run with rknn_yolov5_demo

$ sdl2-cam 1 11 1 model/RK3588/yolov5.rknn 640 640

Is there any difference for rknn to use during stream vs running with input image? please share how to convert for stream?

Looks like something wrong with your camera setup.

I don’t think so, I hardly not changing anything just use the another rknn which I built and tested from rknn_model_zoo

That code does not use json, so i don’t know where the error comes from.

Anyway, here is the code example of how to pull frames from the camera using only FFmpeg and SDL2.
There is an issue, high latency. 5s on average.

Possibly you need to re-write the main loop logic to fix it. (like using threads to pull the frames)

Requirements:

  • FFmpeg with MIPI support (NV12)
  • SDL2

ff-rknn-v4l2.c.zip (6.7 KB)

zip missed include files

#include "postprocess.h"
#include "rknn_api.h"

Adjust the command line to build it inside the github project.


These files depend on the RKNN SDK version.

Do you want to use this project again? or only these two files? and build instructions on the README is what we need build correct?

https://github.com/avafinger/ff-rknn/tree/main

Save the file inside the project tree and the build is something like this:

g++ -O2 --permissive -o ff-rknn-v4l2 ff-rknn-v4l2.c postprocess.cc -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D REENTRANT -I./ -I/usr/include/drm -I/usr/include -I/usr/include/SDL2 -lSDL2 -lavformat -lavcodec -lavdevice -lavutil -lswscale -lswresample -lz -lm -lpthread -ldrm -lrockchip_mpp -llzma -lrtmp -lssl -lcrypto -lbz2 -lxml2 -lX11 -lxcb -lXv -lXext -lv4l2 -lrga -lva -lxcb-shm -lxcb-xfixes -lxcb-render -lxcb-shape -lxcb -lXau -lXdmcp -lxcb -lxcb-shape -lXmu -lXext -lXi -lv4l2 -lasound -lpulse -lsndio -lGL -lpulse -lGL -lGLESv2 -lsndio -lfreetype -lvorbis -lvorbisenc -lopus -lrknnrt -lmp3lame -L ./lib1.5

That depends on your environment…

Nothing is moving as expected, so I did try from scratch. My root has only X11, XFCE, libMali.

I have pushed all your reference files to repo

Link FFmpeg statically and it will work!

You mean, build the ffmpeg statically?
