"Eureka!  Thanks Patrick - I just inserted your addition to the section in the rtph264pay command - and it now comes up independent of startup order.
Thank you so much; I've been at this on and off for a few weeks and beginning to lose sleep on it.…"

"Patrick,
Do you mean adding another 'config-interval=1' within the area of the rtph264pay command enclosed by thje exclamation marks?
Can you show me the exact syntax?
Thanks,
Paul"

"I found that I can start the stream by manually running the raspivid command from the Pi CLI.  It will not work when I set up the raspivid command to start automatically on boot-up with a script that runs from rc.local.
Is there a better or at least…"

"Ok, got it work with UDP-based streaming - by accident.  I had the HUD up and connected to Mavlink, then manually turned on the video stream at the Pi - then the HUD came up!

Is that the crucial sequence?  HUD up first, then video?"

"Thought I found it:  The Pi command should have a "-" in gst-launch-1.0.  I fixed that and the Pi output says it is playing the video, but the HUD still remains blank.  Sheesh.  Here is the HUD cli:"

"Ok, excellent progress.  I went back to square one and made a direct point-to-point network between a PC and the Pi.  PC can ping Pi and vice-versa.  In this configuration I got the TCP-based video to work again.  This tells me that either my other…"

"I went back to your original UDP strings:

On the Pi:

raspivid -t 0 -w 1280 -h 720 -fps 30 -b 1700000 -o - | gst-launch1.0 -v fdsrc ! h264parse config-interval=1 ! rtph264pay ! udpsink host = 192.168.1.104 port= 9000

Where the IP address is that…"

"Hi Patrick,

Here is the HUD pipeline string:

tcpclientsrc host=<Pi IP address> port=5000 ! gdpdepay ! rtph264depay ! avdec_h264

Here is the RPi raspivid command:

raspivid -t 0 -h 1080 -w 1920 -fps 30 -b 2000000 -o - | gst-launch-1.0 -v fdsrc !…"

"Hi,
I can no longer get the HUD to show video.  I had it working before, but all I did was change the IP address of the Pi from which the video is streaming.  I changed the IP address as well in he pipeline field in HUD but I keep getting the "Could…"

"Thanks Patrick.
i agree with your approach of displaying the armed and disarmed messages for only a few seconds.  In the meantime I will do some reading on Qt QML.

In the meantime I am already streaming h264 video from the Pi using raspivid, and can view it on Patrick's stand-alone HUD.  Why couldn't I display the same stream in…"

"Ronald,
Please tell me more - I'm using a Rapsberry Pi with raspivid right now.  With what commands or statement do I tell the native Mission Planner HUD to display the streaming video from the Pi?
Thanks,
Paul

"Can this same video stream be displayed on the HUD that is native to Mission Planner?
There is an option to tell the native HUD to get video from a source, and I've seen folks on the web putting their FPV streams on the native HUD.
I'm not…"
