Hello!

I'm trying to build application which uses gstreamer as videoinput; GStreamer 1.0 support is included in opencv 3.0.0. Im using smake to build sources for Visual Studio 2013 compiler... but cmake could not generate sources wirh GStreamer 1.0 support properly:

Video I/O:

Video for Windows:           YES
DC1394 1.x:                  NO
DC1394 2.x:                  NO
FFMPEG:                      YES (prebuilt binaries)
  codec:                     YES (ver 55.18.102)
  format:                    YES (ver 55.12.100)
  util:                      YES (ver 52.38.100)
  swscale:                   YES (ver 2.3.100)
  resample:                  NO
  gentoo-style:              YES
**GStreamer:                   NO**
OpenNI:                      NO
OpenNI PrimeSensor Modules:  NO
OpenNI2:                     NO
PvAPI:                       NO
GigEVisionSDK:               NO
DirectShow:                  YES
Media Foundation:            NO
XIMEA:                       NO
Intel PerC:                  NO

In CmakeLists.txt the following line exists:

OCV_OPTION(WITH_GSTREAMER "Include Gstreamer support" ON IF (UNIX AND NOT ANDROID) )

so gStreamer1.0 is supported only under UNIX. Why? if I simply remove windows from "blacklist" cmake will not find gstreamer libs. But I have gstreamer1.0 and gstreamer1.0-dev packages installed.

Is there any way to build OpenCV with Gstreamer1.0 support under Windows? Maybe is there any way to grab opencv from gstreamer pipline? OpenCV with Gstreamer1.0 support has current functionality out-of-the-box by useinf

cv::VideoCapture cap("videotestsrc ! videconvert ! appsink")

Why OpenCV prebuilt binaries for Windows does not have GStreamer support! Please help!

Hello, I'm running into the same problem and it looks like no one bothered to make scripts for finding gstreamer. I'm currently working on editing OpenCVFindLibsVideo.cmake to find gstreamer properly on windows. I wanted to check if you came to the same conclusion and thus have already done this.

I think I solved it. Download pkg-config-lite-0.28-1_bin-win32
Add following system paths C:\Program Files (x86)\pkg-config-lite-0.28-1\bin C:\Gstreamer\1.0\x86_64\lib\gstreamer-1.0 C:\Gstreamer\1.0\x86_64\lib Add Environment Variable PKG_CONFIG_PATH C:\Gstreamer\1.0\x86_64\lib\pkgconfig Edit opencv\sources\CMakeLists.txt ... OCV_OPTION(WITH_GSTREAMER "Include Gstreamer support" ON IF (WIN32 OR UNIX AND NOT ANDROID) ) ...

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

CHECK FOR SYSTEM LIBRARIES, OPTIONS, ETC..

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

... if(WIN32) find_package(PKGConfig QUIET) include(CheckFunctionExists) include(CheckIncludeFile) endif()

Edit opencv\sources\modules\highgui\CMakeLists.txt ... if(UNIX) #these variables are set by CHECK_MODULE macro foreach(P ${HIGHGUI_INCLUDE_DIRS}) ocv_include_directories(${P}) endforeach()

foreach(P ${HIGHGUI_LIBRARY_DIRS}) link_directories(${P}) endforeach() endif()

if(WIN32 AND HAVE_GSTREAMER) #these variables are set by CHECK_MODULE macro foreach(P ${HIGHGUI_INCLUDE_DIRS}) ocv_include_directories(${P}) endforeach()

foreach(P ${HIGHGUI_LIBRARY_DIRS}) link_directories(${P}) endforeach() endif()

May be you can have a look in cmake gui and give path in GIGEAPI

I think I solved it.
Download pkg-config-lite-0.28-1_bin-win32
Add following system paths

C:\Program Files (x86)\pkg-config-lite-0.28-1\bin
C:\Gstreamer\1.0\x86_64\lib\gstreamer-1.0
C:\Gstreamer\1.0\x86_64\lib

Add Environment Variable
PKG_CONFIG_PATH C:\Gstreamer\1.0\x86_64\lib\pkgconfig

Edit opencv\sources\CMakeLists.txt
...
OCV_OPTION(WITH_GSTREAMER "Include Gstreamer support" ON IF (WIN32 OR UNIX AND NOT ANDROID) )
...

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

CHECK FOR SYSTEM LIBRARIES, OPTIONS, ETC..

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

...
if(WIN32)
find_package(PKGConfig QUIET)
include(CheckFunctionExists)
include(CheckIncludeFile)
endif()

Edit opencv\sources\modules\highgui\CMakeLists.txt
...
if(UNIX)
#these variables are set by CHECK_MODULE macro
foreach(P ${HIGHGUI_INCLUDE_DIRS})
ocv_include_directories(${P})
endforeach()

foreach(P ${HIGHGUI_LIBRARY_DIRS})
link_directories(${P})
endforeach()
endif()

if(WIN32 AND HAVE_GSTREAMER)
#these variables are set by CHECK_MODULE macro
foreach(P ${HIGHGUI_INCLUDE_DIRS})
ocv_include_directories(${P})
endforeach()

foreach(P ${HIGHGUI_LIBRARY_DIRS})
link_directories(${P})
endforeach()
endif()

Edit opencv\sources\modules\videoio\CMakeLists.txt
if(UNIX)
#these variables are set by CHECK_MODULE macro
foreach(P ${VIDEOIO_INCLUDE_DIRS})
ocv_include_directories(${P})
endforeach()

foreach(P ${VIDEOIO_LIBRARY_DIRS})
link_directories(${P})
endforeach()
endif()

if(WIN32 AND HAVE_GSTREAMER)
#these variables are set by CHECK_MODULE macro
foreach(P ${VIDEOIO_INCLUDE_DIRS})
ocv_include_directories(${P})
endforeach()

foreach(P ${VIDEOIO_LIBRARY_DIRS})
link_directories(${P})
endforeach()
endif()

And edit cap_gstreamer.cpp in modules/videoio
...

if defined(WIN32)

include <stdlib.h>

else

include <unistd.h>

endif


...

define VERSION_NUM(major, minor, micro) (major * 1000000 + minor * 1000 + micro)

define FULL_GST_VERSION VERSION_NUM(GST_VERSION_MAJOR, GST_VERSION_MINOR, GST_VERSION_MICRO)


if defined(WIN32)

define strcasecmp _stricmp

define strncasecmp _strnicmp

endif

...

if defined(WIN32)

_fullpath(uri, filename, _MAX_PATH);

else

uri = realpath(filename, NULL);

endif

Worked for me

i can't understand where i shoud enter part 

if defined(WIN32)
define strcasecmp _stricmp
define strncasecmp _strnicmp
endif

...
if defined(WIN32)

_fullpath(uri, filename, _MAX_PATH);
else

uri = realpath(filename, NULL);
endif

and after using cmake there is an error: cant find pkgconifg

@blacksailer & @afanasjev i did all things but in build step have error about find libs and gst/gst.h can you give me some advice?

@Armin Hi , did you able to capture from camera using Gstreamer in Opencv?
