DeepStream Environment

NVIDIA DeepStream is a high‑performance SDK for building AI‑powered video analytics applications on Jetson and dGPU platforms.

This document describes how to install and verify the DeepStream environment on Jetson.


1. System Information

Check your system information before installation.

System
Information


2. Install DeepStream

During Jetson component installation, ensure DeepStream 7.1 is selected.

tip

If you are using an automated installer or SDK Manager, enable the DeepStream option explicitly.

Select DeepStream
Option


3. Verify Installation

Install required GStreamer dependency:

sudo apt install -y libgstrtspserver-1.0-0

Verify DeepStream version:

deepstream-app --version-all

If installed correctly, version information will be displayed:

DeepStream Version
Output


4. Run the Example Application

Navigate to the DeepStream sample configuration directory:

cd /opt/nvidia/deepstream/deepstream-7.1/samples/configs/deepstream-app

Run the sample pipeline:

deepstream-app -c source30_1080p_dec_infer-resnet_tiled_display_int8.txt
note

This demo may take a long time to start. If the program does not exit immediately, allow it to continue running.

warning

When running high‑load applications, the system may display:

System throttled due to Over-current.

This is expected behavior under heavy load.

tip

Use a power adapter rated at least 45W to avoid throttling issues.
