Networked Media Open Specifications (NMOS) in DeepStream
==========================================================
The NvDsNmos utility library provides the APIs to create, destroy and internally manage an `NMOS `_ Node for a DeepStream application.
The library can automatically discover and register with an NMOS Registry on the network using the `AMWA IS-04 `_ Registration API.
The library provides callbacks for NMOS events such as `AMWA IS-05 `_ Connection API requests from an NMOS Controller.
These callbacks can be used to update running DeepStream pipelines with new transport parameters, for example.
NvDsNmos currently supports Senders and Receivers for uncompressed Video and Audio, i.e., SMPTE ST 2110-20 and SMPTE ST 2110-30 streams.
Supported Specifications
--------------------------
The NvDsNmos library supports the following specifications, using the `Sony nmos-cpp `_ implementation:
* `AMWA IS-04 NMOS Discovery and Registration Specification `_ v1.3
* `AMWA IS-05 NMOS Device Connection Management Specification `_ v1.1
* `AMWA IS-09 NMOS System Parameters Specification `_ v1.0
* `AMWA BCP-004-01 NMOS Receiver Capabilities `_ v1.0
* Session Description Protocol conforming to SMPTE ST 2110-20 and -30
Prerequisites
---------------
The Avahi Apple Bonjour compatibility library must be installed. For example, run: ::
sudo apt-get install libavahi-compat-libdnssd-dev
The Avahi mDNS/DNS-SD daemon must also be running.
The Avahi browsing, publishing and discovery utilities (avahi-utils) can be used to confirm that DNS Service Discovery (DNS-SD) records for an NMOS Registry are discoverable. For example, run: ::
avahi-browse -r _nmos-register._tcp
NvDsNmos API
--------------
Refer to the ``nvdsnmos.h`` header file.
Sample Application
--------------------
Refer to the :doc:`DS_ref_app_nmos`, which demonstrates how to use the NvDsNmos library.
