GstAppSink: Sharing between two pipelines

Question

We're trying to use appsink from one pipeline, which reads camera image data from appsrc using aravis library in gst-rtsp-server as a buffer provider for need-data signal.

The camera is acquiring image data in BayerRG8 pixel format, we convert it using bayer2rgb then link to videoconvert and send result to appsink.

We used source code of arv-viewer tool to acquire frames from camera and appsrc example of gst-rtsp-server.

Question:
Can we use appsink for rtsp server's appsrc in need-data callback, and which pipeline launch to use in media factory for our appsink?

The appsink is shared between 2 services:
one dealing with camera and another dealing with server?

• VC.One: I don't use GStreamer but if you can get the result of appsink as H.264 bytes (in Array) then maybe just have your app do a connection to the RTSP server and then manually send (to server) the array that you receive from appsink. This should avoid needing 2 GStreamer pipelines.
• Akkshay: not sure about appsink but I have successfully implemented this using shmsink and shmsrc
