which gstreamer pipeline settings are needed to process chrome's rtp stream?


I'm streaming a webcam from a browser using webrtc to a server where the following setup works:

  1. using firefox and a modified echo-test html from janus gateway I send the webcam stream to a janus server
  2. the janus server is running using a modified echotest plugin which simply udp-streams the given char *buf in janus_videorecv_incoming_rtp() to port 5060, just for testing purpose (pretty much like this)
  3. the following gstreamer command line actually opens a window showing the streaming video

GST_DEBUG=p*:5 gst-launch-1.0 -vvv udpsrc caps="application/x-rtp,media=video,clock-rate=90000,payload=96" port=5060 ! rtpvp8depay ! vp8dec ! autovideosink

in the modified echo test javascript i remove a few lines from the sdp answer the browser will receive like the following:

//jsep.sdp = jsep.sdp.replace(/a=rtcp-mux[^\s]*\s*/g, '');
jsep.sdp = jsep.sdp.replace(/a=rtpmap[^\s]*\s*red[^\s]*\s*/g, '');
jsep.sdp = jsep.sdp.replace(/a=rtpmap[^\s]*\s*ulpfec[^\s]*\s*/g, '');
jsep.sdp = jsep.sdp.replace(/a=fmtp[^\r\n]*\r*\n*/g, '');
jsep.sdp = jsep.sdp.replace(/a=rtcp-fb[^\s]*\s*goog-remb[^\s]*\s*/g, '');

below, one can find the modified firefox sdp answer which works for above gstreamer command but the, in the same way, modified sdp answer doesnt work in case of chrome i thought about adjusting the payload in the gstreamer caps, but 32,33,96,100,120 didnt work

so the question is: what is needed in case of chrome to get this to work?

i also tried adding fir/pli requests like in videoroom.c from janus as suggested here

the gstreamer output in case of chrome is, where the command just keeps waiting at the last line:

Solution

  • I have updated my fork that contains the bidirectional streaming plugin to show you an example that works(I have tested on debian jessie).

    Here are my pointers for your plugin changes

    1. make sure your gstreamer pipeline is set to receive BEFORE you request the keyframe from chrome
    2. Request your key frame when webrtc media is ready(see janus_bidirectional_streaming_setup_media function for details)
    3. Do not use the rtpbin gstreamer element for handling the incoming stream. For some reason the way it is setting caps does not really work and the pipeline will crash. If you do get the rtp packets and are able to send them to a port, then the following pipeline worked without issues: gst-launch-1.0 udpsrc port=<your listener> caps="application/x-rtp, clock-rate=90000, payload=100" ! rtpvp8depay ! vp8dec ! autovideosink sync=false async=false

    Theoretically, directly pushing the buffers to an appsrc within the plugin should work as well.
