Customize for your target devices

If you this plugin on your target devices, you will need to customize the pipeline in the source file.So, replace the videoconvert element with a H/W accelerated element of your target device to perform well.

default:

camerabin viewfinder-sink="videoconvert ! video/x-raw,format=RGBA ! fakesink"

e.g. customization for i.MX 8M platforms:

camerabin viewfinder-sink="imxvideoconvert_g2d ! video/x-raw,format=RGBA ! fakesink"
