Error installing PyGObject in window for running RTSP streaming.

Hi @nikul ,
Here's step by step tutorial:

1. Install WLS 2
2. RUn commands

   sudo apt-get update
   sudo apt-get upgrade
   sudo apt-get install ffmpeg gstreamer-1.0 gir1.2-gst-rtsp-server-1.0 libgirepository1.0-dev gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad gstreamer1.0-plugins-good gstreamer1.0-plugins-base
   

3. Install python requirements

   opencv-python
   numpy
   depthai==2.24
   PyGObject
   

4. I went with standalone approach, so flashing TCP server streaming H265 bitstream to clients that connect to it. You can run this flashing script from Windows (no need for WSL). Note that you need latest bootlaoder flashed on device before flashing this script to the OAK POE camera:

   import depthai as dai
   
   # Start defining a pipeline
   pipeline = dai.Pipeline()
   
   camRgb = pipeline.createColorCamera()
   camRgb.setIspScale(2,3)
   
   videoEnc = pipeline.create(dai.node.VideoEncoder)
   videoEnc.setDefaultProfilePreset(30, dai.VideoEncoderProperties.Profile.H265_MAIN)
   camRgb.video.link(videoEnc.input)
   
   script = pipeline.create(dai.node.Script)
   script.setProcessor(dai.ProcessorType.LEON_CSS)
   
   videoEnc.bitstream.link(script.inputs['frame'])
   script.inputs['frame'].setBlocking(False)
   script.inputs['frame'].setQueueSize(1)
   
   script.setScript("""
   import socket
   import time
   
   server = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
   server.bind(("0.0.0.0", 5000))
   server.listen()
   node.warn("Server up")
   
   while True:
       conn, client = server.accept()
       node.warn(f"Connected to client IP: {client}")
       try:
           while True:
               pck = node.io["frame"].get()
               data = pck.getData()
               ts = pck.getTimestamp()
               header = f"ABCDE " + str(ts.total_seconds()).ljust(18) + str(len(data)).ljust(8)
               # node.warn(f'>{header}<')
               conn.send(bytes(header, encoding='ascii'))
               conn.send(data)
   
       except Exception as e:
           node.warn("Client disconnected")
   """)
   
   (f, bl) = dai.DeviceBootloader.getFirstAvailableDevice()
   bootloader = dai.DeviceBootloader(bl)
   progress = lambda p : print(f'Flashing progress: {p*100:.1f}%')
   bootloader.flash(progress, pipeline)
   

5. Find IP of your camera that's running the TCP server (I just used device manager), then run this script within the WLS2:

   #!/usr/bin/env python3
   
   import threading
   
   import gi
   gi.require_version('Gst', '1.0')
   gi.require_version('GstRtspServer', '1.0')
   from gi.repository import Gst, GstRtspServer, GLib
   import socket
   import re
   import cv2
   import numpy as np
   
   # Enter your own IP!
   OAK_IP = "192.168.0.102"
   
   class RtspSystem(GstRtspServer.RTSPMediaFactory):
       def __init__(self, **properties):
           super(RtspSystem, self).__init__(**properties)
           self.data = None
           self.launch_string = 'appsrc name=source is-live=true block=true format=GST_FORMAT_TIME ! h265parse ! rtph265pay name=pay0 config-interval=1 name=pay0 pt=96'
   
       def send_data(self, data):
           self.data = data
   
       def start(self):
           t = threading.Thread(target=self._thread_rtsp)
           t.start()
   
       def _thread_rtsp(self):
           loop = GLib.MainLoop()
           loop.run()
   
       def on_need_data(self, src, length):
           if self.data is not None:
               retval = src.emit('push-buffer', Gst.Buffer.new_wrapped(self.data.tobytes()))
               if retval != Gst.FlowReturn.OK:
                   print(retval)
   
       def do_create_element(self, url):
           return Gst.parse_launch(self.launch_string)
   
       def do_configure(self, rtsp_media):
           self.number_frames = 0
           appsrc = rtsp_media.get_element().get_child_by_name('source')
           appsrc.connect('need-data', self.on_need_data)
   
   
   class RTSPServer(GstRtspServer.RTSPServer):
       def __init__(self, **properties):
           super(RTSPServer, self).__init__(**properties)
           self.rtsp = RtspSystem()
           self.rtsp.set_shared(True)
           self.get_mount_points().add_factory("/preview", self.rtsp)
           self.attach(None)
           Gst.init(None)
           self.rtsp.start()
   
       def send_data(self, data):
           self.rtsp.send_data(data)
   
   def get_frame(socket, size):
       bytes = socket.recv(4096)
       while True:
           read = 4096
           if size-len(bytes) < read:
               read = size-len(bytes)
           bytes += socket.recv(read)
           if size == len(bytes):
               return bytes
   
   if __name__ == "__main__":
       server = RTSPServer()
   
       sock = socket.socket()
       sock.connect((OAK_IP, 5000))
   
       try:
           while True:
               header = str(sock.recv(32), encoding="ascii")
               chunks = re.split(' +', header)
               if chunks[0] == "ABCDE":
                   # print(f">{header}<")
                   ts = float(chunks[1])
                   imgSize = int(chunks[2])
                   img = get_frame(sock, imgSize)
                   buf = np.frombuffer(img, dtype=np.byte)
                   server.send_data(buf)
                   # print(buf.shape, buf.size)
               if cv2.waitKey(1) == ord('q'):
                   break
       except Exception as e:
           print("Error:", e)
   
       sock.close()
   

6. Find IP of your WLS2 (ifconfig) which is now running RTSP server
7. ???
   7.1 Profit!
8. I used RTSP PLayer on Windows to verify that my RTSP (on WLS2) works as expected. Img below.
