timecodestamper has no property named 'set'

I am using gstreamer to stream over UDP (using RTP) a video from a camera and I would like to add timestamps in the H264 metadata. I have tried to add timecodestamper in the pipeline like this:

GstElement *timestamp;
timestamp = gst_element_factory_make ("timecodestamper", "myTimeStamp");
g_object_set (timestamp, "set", "always", "source", "rtc", NULL);

And then I add it to the pipeline, but I have this warning:

GLib-GObject-WARNING **: 17:34:01.208: g_object_set_is_valid_property:
object class 'GstTimeCodeStamper' has no property named 'set'

Thank you very much.

Solution

  • You are probably using an older GStreamer version.

    The set property was added in GStreamer 1.17.1.

    You can also use gst-inspect timecodestamper on your local system to see documentation relevant to the installed version.

    For the old version, the equivalent property of set=always is override-existing=true
