Description Dave 2014-03-07 02:58:27 UTC 
I am trying to output a pipeline to the decklinksink with no luck.  The card will only output black although the modes change correctly when selected. I have tried filesrc and videotestsrc, with the same result: no error, just black.

Example test: GST_DEBUG=4 gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc pattern=smpte100 ! video/x-raw,format=UYVY,width=720, height=576, framerate=25/1, interlaced=interleaved, pixel-aspect-ratio=12/11, colormetry=bt601, chromasite=mpeg2 ! decklinksink mode=2

or: videotestsrc pattern=smpte100 ! videoconvert ! videoscale ! decklinksink mode=2

Anyone have a working pipeline I can start from?

Can you run with this commit and then provide a debug log with GST_DEBUG=decklinksink:6 ?

Comment 2 Sebastian Dröge (slomo) 2014-08-01 16:03:51 UTC 
And this most likely fixes it for real. Please reopen the bug otherwise and include a debug log :)
