I sent you a pull request to fix this.

I have that with ffplay but not with gst-launch. Which version of ubuntu are you on?

Hmm. I can't seem to get gst-launch to work ... it says "no decoder to handle media type 'application/sdp'"

Solved: you have to install the "bad" gstreamer plugins.

This is now working!

Thanks!

Yes you can stream video from the ardrone while flying with paparazzi. For this you so you do not even need to compile anything and only need the subproject https://github.com/tudelft/ardrone2_gstreamer/ (which is included in ardrone2_vision)

How?

1) install gstreamer with codecs on unbuntu: make install should achieve this (or sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg)

2) get all gstreamer files on the drone: make drone (or manually untar arm_light.tgz and mount and start dsp images: see ardrone.py script for details: reboot drone if starting dsp mp4 images fails)

3) start the grabbing + (computer vision plugin) + encoding + streaming on the drone using gstreamer: e.g. gst-launch v4l2src device=/dev/video1 ! videorate ! 'video/x-raw-yuv,framerate=15/1' ! videoscale ! video/x-raw-yuv, width=320, height=240 ! dspmp4venc ! rtpmp4vpay config-interval=2 ! udpsink host=192.168.1.255 (or your IP) port=5000
should now broadcast camera 1 with mpeg4 encoding to broadcast ip on port 5000

4) start a video client in ubuntu: 
e.g.: gst-launch-0.10 -vvv playbin uri=file:///home/YOURNAME_AND_SUBFOLDER/ardrone2_vision/ardrone2_gstreamer/sdp/x86_config-mp4.sdp


Hmm. This kinda works, but I get lots of errors both as text and in the video - it shows some of the video at the top, but the rest is fuzz.

Cool, thanks, will try later. Sorry to nag, but ... can I use this to stream video? If so, how?

Yes we are looking into using the DSP. We are currently also busy working on an ardrone2 vision platform, where for example it is possible to make a module for landing on a mark.
We alrready had vide streaming and some basic vision algorithms working, but not in a very nice way. So we are refactoring it, and make it more easy to use.

So is it possible to use it now to do streaming? If so ... how?

Also, it doesn't even build right now, e.g.:

And the install appears to not have been coded (from ardrone2.py):

# Install the vision framework                                                  
def ardrone2_install_vision():
  print 'TODO'

 

It's still work in progress, and currently doesn't work out of the box but here is the github repository. https://github.com/tudelft/ardrone2_vision

Cool. I'll give it a try when I next get a chance.

I think I read somewhere that the ardrone2 has a DSP - have you looked
into using that yet?

Because I've been flying mine from my fields, I've had to use a
platform to launch it from (the grass is too long to do it from the
ground). As it happens, the platform I'm using is a bright yellow
stool. I was wondering if it would be possible to use the camera to
land on it :-) (Just idle speculation really).

On a related note, is it possible to record the video during a
paparazzi flight? And/or view it live?
