Any topic with multiple topic types causes image server to fail on desired topics

Open rjb0026 opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Description If there are any active topics (publications or subscriptions) which have multiple message types associated with them, the web_video_server will bail out of its topic search early, sometimes before finding and establishing the stream for the desired topic, which may be valid.

  • Library Version: ros2 branch (eb9af5f0c5a78d3ebd08afe7cf1a484b272012fd)
  • ROS Version: Humble
  • Platform / OS: Ubuntu 22.04

Steps To Reproduce

  • publish two topics with the same name but differing types (e.g. /alpha)
  • publish a different, valid image topic that is lexicographically greater than the topic above (e.g. /beta)
  • Make a request to view the valid image topic

Expected Behavior The valid image topic is still streamed.

Actual Behavior The valid image topic is not streamed.
