Answer 1

I had this same issue, it was because I used the min_install_script, and I think the plugin only gets built if you use the full install script.

Try this:

cd to your kinesis-video-native-build directory and execute the commands below

(change the directory in the commands below to your directory for the sdk):

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/amazon-kinesis-video-streams-producer-sdk-cpp/kinesis-video-native-build/downloads/local/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export GST_PLUGIN_PATH=/opt/amazon-kinesis-video-streams-producer-sdk-cpp/kinesis-video-native-build/downloads/local/lib:$GST_PLUGIN_PATH
sudo ./gstreamer-plugin-install-script
