.. zephyr:code-sample:: video-tcpserversink
:name: Video TCP server sink
:relevant-api: video_interface bsd_sockets
Capture video frames and send them over the network to a TCP client.
Description
***********
This sample application gets frames from a video capture device and sends
them over the network to the connected TCP client.
Requirements
************
This samples requires a video capture device and network support.
- :ref:`mimxrt1064_evk`
- `MT9M114 camera module`_
Wiring
******
On :ref:`mimxrt1064_evk`, The MT9M114 camera module should be plugged in the
J35 camera connector. A USB cable should be connected from a host to the micro
USB debug connector (J41) in order to get console output via the freelink
interface. Ethernet cable must be connected to RJ45 connector.
Building and Running
********************
For :ref:`mimxrt1064_evk`, the sample can be built with the following command.
If a mt9m114 camera shield is missing, video software generator will be used instead.

Sample Output
=============
.. code-block:: console
Video device detected, format: RGBP 480x272
TCP: Waiting for client...
Then from a peer on the same network you can connect and grab frames.
Example with gstreamer:
.. code-block:: console
gst-launch-1.0 tcpclientsrc host=192.0.2.1 port=5000 \
! videoparse format=rgb16 width=480 height=272 \
! queue \
! videoconvert \
! fpsdisplaysink sync=false
For video software generator, the default resolution should be width=320 and height=160.
