This section provides a guide to obtaining, installing, and testing the GstQtOverlay evaluation version.
Step 1: Request the Evaluation Binaries
RidgeRun provides a fully-featured evaluation version of the plugin with a limited processing time, as shown in table 1:
| Feature | Professional | Evaluation |
|---|---|---|
| GstQtOverlay Element | Y | Y |
| Unlimited Processing Time | Y | N (*) |
| Source Code | Y | N |
(*) The evaluation version will limit the processing to a maximum of 10 000 buffers (5 mins at 30fps).
In order to request an evaluation binary for a specific architecture, please Contact Us by providing the following information:
- Platform (i.e.: i.MX6, Xavier NX, etc...)
- Target Qt version
- GStreamer version and kernel version, you can provide the output of the following commands:
gst-launch-1.0 --gst-version uname -a
Step 2: Install the dependencies
Make sure the dependencies are fulfilled, for this check our Dependencies section before moving to the next step.
Step 3: Install the Binaries
RidgeRun should've provided you with a .tar package: gst-qt-overlay-1.Y.Z-gst-1.X-P-eval.tar. Copy the files into your system:
tar -xvf gst-qt-overlay-1.Y.Z-gst-1.X-P-eval.tar sudo cp -r gst-qt-overlay-1.Y.Z-gst-1.X-P-eval/usr/lib/* /usr/lib/
You can now test the plugin installation as described in our Checking GstQtOverlay Install section.
