Can the data I recorded with the NVIDIA DRIVE? PX 2 be used with NVIDIA DRIVE AGX Developer Kit?

If the recorded data is RAW or LRAW, you can use it on NVIDIA DRIVE PX 2 or NVIDIA DRIVE AGX Developer Kit.

If the data was recorded on NVIDIA DRIVE PX 2 and that data was processed (output as an .h264 video) before being recorded, compatibility with NVIDIA DRIVE AGX Developer Kit depends on how the data was processed

Processing	DW Applications
.h264 processed with HW ISP	Compatible
.h264 processed with SoftISP(?)	Likely compatible, but unsuitable

Note that SoftISP has been deprecated, so videos processed using it are not guaranteed to be ideal for our applications

How can I troubleshoot issues with GMSL Cameras?

The first step is to identify whether the issue lies within NvMedia or within DriveWorks. NvMedia and DriveWorks provide samples of similar functionality; the output of these samples can be compared to identify the potential source of the issue.

Why does the log show 'Stream doesn't contain valid AUD units'?

Driveworks requires h264/h265 videos to have AUD units. Otherwise it is unable to create index table and seeking is not available. For Driveworks recordings it is always take care of. If using external video AUDs can be added by the following ffmpeg command:

ffmpeg -y -i your.h264 -c:v copy -bsf:v h264_metadata=aud=insert your.h264
ffmpeg -y -i your.h265 -c:v copy -bsf:v hevc_metadata=aud=insert your.h265
