I’m using Nvidia Jetson Tx2 device.

With the following command, I can connect and capture an image with ffmpeg.

But with gstreamer, (I’m using version 1.14.5) I am not able to access the
rtsp feed.
I am pretty sure this is a Gstreamer issue because I can get the screenshot
image when using ffmpeg.

I found this post that says that the ugly plugin might be the problem and
uninstalled it but it still does not work. Reference Url :

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!
