How to stream pc webcam with rtsp and GStreamer on python

问题

I'm trying to stream my laptop webcam frames with rtsp with python. To do this I'm using GStreamer. Browsing some examples on the web, I get the following code and I tested it with a local video in .mp4 format

#!/usr/bin/env python
import sysimport gi
gi.require_version('Gst', '1.0')
gi.require_version('GstRtspServer', '1.0')
from gi.repository import Gst, GstRtspServer, GObject, GLib

loop = GLib.MainLoop()
Gst.init(None)

class TestRtspMediaFactory(GstRtspServer.RTSPMediaFactory): 
    def __init__(self):             
        GstRtspServer.RTSPMediaFactory.__init__(self)

    def do_create_element(self, url): 
        #set mp4 file path to filesrc's location property 
        src_demux = "filesrc location=/home/user1/Videos/720.mp4 ! qtdemux name=demux" 
        h264_transcode = "demux.video_0" 
        #uncomment following line if video transcoding is necessary 
        #h264_transcode = "demux.video_0 ! decodebin ! queue ! x264enc" 
        pipeline = "{0} {1} ! queue ! rtph264pay name=pay0 config-interval=1 pt=96".format(src_demux, h264_transcode) 
        print ("Element created: " + pipeline) 
        return Gst.parse_launch(pipeline)

class GstreamerRtspServer(): 
    def __init__(self): 
        self.rtspServer = GstRtspServer.RTSPServer() 
        self.rtspServer.set_service("7000") 
        factory = TestRtspMediaFactory() 
        factory.set_shared(True) 
        mountPoints = self.rtspServer.get_mount_points() 
        mountPoints.add_factory("/stream1", factory) 
        self.rtspServer.attach(None)

if __name__ == '__main__': 
    s = GstreamerRtspServer() 
    loop.run()

It expose the stream on the address 127.0.0.1:7000/stream1. So, if I try with the following command from the terminal, I can see the video in a window

gst-launch-1.0 rtspsrc location=rtsp://127.0.0.1:7000/stream1 ! queue ! rtph264depay ! avdec_h264 ! videoconvert ! videoscale ! video/x-raw,width=640,height=480 ! autovideosink

Now, I want to change the pipeline to change the source from the mp4 local video to my laptop webcam. I tried with the following:

vl42src device=/dev/video0 ! decodebin ! x264enc ! rtph264pay name=pay0 config-interval=1 pt=96

And, by terminal side, I try to connect with the same pipeline. It don't works. This is the error I get:

gst-launch-1.0 rtspsrc location=rtsp://127.0.0.1:7000/stream1 ! queue ! rtph264depay ! avdec_h264 ! videoconvert ! videoscale ! video/x-raw,width=640,height=480 ! autovideosink --gst-debug=3 -v

What I'm wrong with this? Did anyone know a pipeline that can be used to make things working from my webcam?

Thanks in advance

At the end, I found this example and I changed my code accordingly

https://github.com/superdump/pyrtsp

Here the pipeline used instead of those described in the code

v4l2src device=/dev/video0 ! videoconvert ! x264enc speed-preset=ultrafast tune=zerolatency ! rtph264pay name=pay0 pt=96

Here the command from terminal to connect to the stream

gst-launch-1.0 rtsprc location=rtsp://127.0.0.1:8554/test is-live=true ! rtph264depay ! h264parse ! avdec_h264 ! videoconvert ! videoscale ! autovideosink

However the only remaining issue is slowness in showing images, but it should be optimizable with a bit of tuning of the pipeline
