Setting the parameters for v4lh264enc is admittedly a bit obscure.
Here's an excerpt from my pipeline using the HW encoder:
"video/x-raw,format=I420 ! queue ! v4l2h264enc
extra-controls="controls,video_bitrate=1500000,video_bitrate_mode=1" !
video/x-h264,profile=constrained-baseline,level=(string)3.1 ! queue ! h264parse"
Note the extra-controls parameter, which is a string containing extra V4L2
parameters. On a Raspberry Pi with default installation, you can view the
available parameters with "v4l2-ctl -L -d /dev/video11". You also usually need
to request a specific H.264 profile and level in the downstream caps, otherwise
the encoder won't initialize properly.
Hope this helps!
Best, Florian
