Trying to stream virtualy created camera video0 device to make rtsp stream for VLC using gstreamer in 24bit RGB format

Question

I have created Video0 device using V4l2loopback and used the following sample Git code V4l2Loopback_cpp as a application to stream jpg images from a folder sequential by altering some conditions in the code.But the code read images as 24Bit RGB image and send it Video0 device which is fine ,because the image run like a proper video on VLC video device capture. As i mentioned earlier thet if i checked the VLC properties of the video its Shows the following content

i need this video0 device to stream rtsp h264 video in vlc using the gstreamer lib . i have used the following command to check in commandline for testing but its show some internal process error

gst-launch-1.0 -v v4l2src device=/dev/video0 ! video/x-raw,width=590,height=332,framerate=30/1 ! x264enc ! rtph264pay name=pay0 pt=96

i dont know whats the problem here .is it 24bit jpeg format or the gstreamer command i use. I need a proper gstreamer command line to process the video0 devide to stream h264 rtsp video any help is appreciated thank u.

image Format - jpg (sequence image passed) Video0 recives - 24-bit RGB image output need - h264 rtsp stream from video0

Not sure this is a solution, but the following may help:

1. You may try adjusting resolution according to what V4L reports (width=584) :

v4l2src device=/dev/video0 ! video/x-raw,format=RGB,width=584,height=332,framerate=30/1 ! videoconvert ! x264enc insert-vui=1 ! h264parse ! rtph264pay name=pay0 pt=96

2. Note that this error may happen on v4l2loopback receiver side while it may be a sender error. If you're feeding v4l2loopback with a gstreamer pipeline to v4l2sink, you would try adding identity such as:

... ! video/x-raw,format=RGB,width=584,height=332,framerate=30/1 ! identity drop-allocation=1 ! v4l2sink
