Resin-WPE : GStreamer-CRITICAL Error with youtube live video

Product support
1

Hello,

I test the resin-wpe with a live video from youtube :

WPE_URL = https://www.youtube.com/embed/hL0sEdVJs3U?autoplay=1&vq=hd720

But the video won’t start and I get this error :

(WPEWebProcess:39): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: _gst_util_uint64_scale: assertion 'denom != 0' failed

Any idea ?

Thanks.

hi,

can you check all the configuration variables that you have entered and make sure that they are entered as described in the resin-wpe repo?

3

Thanks.

I set these variables :

RESIN_HOST_CONFIG_gpu_mem_256 = 128
RESIN_HOST_CONFIG_gpu_mem_512 = 196
RESIN_HOST_CONFIG_gpu_mem_1024 = 396

WPE_URL = https://www.youtube.com/embed/hL0sEdVJs3U?autoplay=1&vq=hd720

Are there other conf variables to set ?

4

I guess you can set those if you need to:

If you try with a different youtube url (not live video), do you get the same error?

5

I didn’t get the error with a normal youtube video

6

Can you file an issue in the github repo describing exactly that behavior please in order for the maintainer to see it?

Hello,

I get this response from WPEWebKit team : GStreamer-CRITICAL Error with youtube live video · Issue #411 · WebPlatformForEmbedded/WPEWebKit · GitHub

You need a patched GStreamer to solve this issue. It’s solved in WebKit upstream here:
176804 – [GStreamer] Many media source tests crashing with GStreamer-CRITICAL **: _gst_util_uint64_scale: assertion 'denom != 0' failed in gst_qtdemux_configure_stream()
I’ve just backported the patch to gst1-plugins-good in buildroot here:
WebPlatformForEmbedded/buildroot@85e8095

How to apply this to the resin-wpe project ?

Hey @samoud, if the patch has been applied in the meta-wpe layer upstream, then it might be as easy as updating the version of meta-wpe in https://github.com/resin-io-playground/resin-wpe/tree/master/base-image and rebuilding the base image. I haven’t looked into the meta-wpe history to see if they have that patch included, so it would need a little research.

Thanks @shaunmulligan

I asked them and apparently it’s not applied yet. https://github.com/WebPlatformForEmbedded/WPEWebKit/issues/411#issuecomment-346666793

By the way I updated the version of all submodules but I get some new errors (and added some new layers meta-openembedded/meta-networking and python) :

They just updated meta-wpe but I still get this EGL error.

I tried to add egl to /base-image/meta-resin-wpe/recipes-core/images/resin-wpe-image.bb :

DISTRO_FEATURES_append = " egl" but it ignore it.

Any Idea ?

16

You mean that you still get the initial error:

(WPEWebProcess:39): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: _gst_util_uint64_scale: assertion 'denom != 0' failed ?

17

Nope, this one when I try to build the yocto image :

18

I’ll ping the team for more ideas on this

thanks,
ilias

Thanks.

Do you know how can I add DISTRO_FEATURES to meta-resin-wpe ?

The issue is closed now and it should be working.
