child 'mfx_gst_h264vd0' failed to go to state 2(READY)

[eslam-ahmed-khair]

Hello,

I'm running the following pipeline gst-launch filesrc location=TestVector.mp4 ! qtdemux ! mfx_gst_h264vd ! filesink location=output.yuv but I get the following error and the pipeline immediately aborts:

Using GST_DEBUG=4
0:00:00.028912264 111869 0x5576da14c200 INFO GST_STATES gstbin.c:2968:gst_bin_change_state_func:<pipeline0> child 'mfx_gst_h264vd0' failed to go to state 2(READY)

The Setup:

• OS: Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS
• CPU: 2x Custom Intel(R) Xeon(R) Platinum 8275CL CPU @ 3.00GHz (24 Cores / 48 Threads)
• Intel Media SDK version: 21.2.3
• Gstreamer version: 1.16.2

Any idea what's happening?

P.S.
I encountered some header file include issues, but then decided to move those headers to the immediate parent directory (/opt/intel/mediasdk/include/) where it actually tried to look for them. Also moved the libs to /opt/intel/mediasdk/lib/lin_x64
