Notes:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Various plugins in the upstream source are not yet packaged. This is
|
|
|
|
most likely due to:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1 - upstream considers them too unstable
|
|
|
|
2 - libraries they depend on not being in Debian.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Your favorite codec isn't wrapped as a plugin? External programs can be
|
|
|
|
used to process streams. Take a look at "pipefilter" element or try
|
|
|
|
something like this:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ mkfifo fifo
|
|
|
|
$ gst-launch myaudiosrc ! disksink location=fifo &
|
|
|
|
$ cat fifo | my_encoder > output_file
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
mp3 encoding plugins are NOT packaged. Specifically, the LAME plugin is
|
|
|
|
NOT packaged due to Debian not including the LAME libraries. Please see
|
|
|
|

It was packaged prior to 0.3.3-2. In case anyone is interested the

Ogg Vorbis provides a good alternative to mp3s. Try the
|
|
|
|
gstreamer-vorbis package. For more information:
