Screen shot of Black and White Output

Hi,
I m using the pipeline 

gst-launch -v videotestsrc ! vaapisink and the see a black and while output on one H/W system (Config 1 1). The same Hard disk on a different H/W system (different processor than Config1), shows colored o/p. 

I used  GST_DEBUG=vaapisink:5 gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc ! vaapisnk  to compare the debug logs on both system and debug traces are the same. 

Is there any further debug approaches that you could suggest ?

Thank you
Mats

I guess that problem relies on the driver (since they are different hardware) not in the middleware (gstreamer-vaapi in this case)

Comment 2 Mats 2017-10-20 11:02:21 UTC

Is there a way to get additional debug information at vaapisink before looking into driver ?

GST_DEBUG=vaapi*:7 gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc ! vaapisnk

You'll get all the available vaapi debug logging
