gstreamer streaming to nginx rtmp server

Question

PS: First time gstreamer user here. :)

Im trying to stream video from a logitech c920 webcam connected to a beaglebone using gstreamer to an nginx server. But somehow rtmpsink is failing on me. However, with filesink im able to save the video on the beaglebone. Though I still have some frame loss issues and no audio, I want the streaming part to be working first. The command Im using is

GST_DEBUG=4 GST_DEBUG_FILE=gst2.log gst-launch-1.0 -v -e uvch264src device=/dev/video0 name=src auto-start=true average-bitrate=5000000 iframe-period=33  src.vidsrc  ! queue ! video/x-h264,width=1920,height=1080,framerate=30/1 ! h264parse ! flvmux ! rtmpsink location="rtmp://192.168.1.104:1935/hls/movie"

My debug output is here. gist

gstreamer just quits within 5 seconds.

I verified that the streaming server works. But from the client, gstreamer is not giving me any kind of error messages. Or I dont know how to debug it properly.

Im stuck on this issue for the last so many days. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Update 1

: Im able to send a local file to my rtmp server with ffmpeg and server is handling it as expected.

ffmpeg -re -i /Users/r3dsm0k3/10.mp4 -vprofile baseline -ar 44100 -ac 1 -c copy -f flv rtmp://192.168.1.4:1935/hls/example

Tried gstreamer with fakesink and it doesn't give any errors.

Update 2

Tried with v4l2src as well, without luck.

Answer 1

Finally figured it out. It was rather simple but on the server side of things.

I had to add publish_time_fix off; in the nginx config for rtmp server.
