Gst-nvimagedec#
The Gst-nvimagedec plugin decodes images on dGPU and (ARM + dGPU) platforms like arm-sbsa.
This plugin is based on the libnvjpeg library which part of the CUDA toolkit.
The plugin accepts a JPEG encoded bitstream and produces RGB output.
jpegparse plugin should be used to parse the encoded frame before nvimagedec,
since it does not have an internal bitstream parser.
Inputs and Outputs#
Inputs
Elementary JPEG
Control parameters
