\fIgst\-launch\-ext\fP is a tool that is used to run a basic predefined
|
|
|
|
|
\fIGStreamer\fP pipeline. This application is only used as a quick test to
|
|
|
|
|
ensure proper working of codecs and GStreamer. It doesn't handle more advanced
|
|
|
|
|
features like synchronisation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
All supported formats in GStreamer should be playable by simply typing:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
gst\-launch\-ext filename
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It will also print out the pipeline it uses, so you can customize it using
|
|
|
|
|
cut and paste.
|
|

|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
\fIgst\-launch\-ext\fP can be configured by creating a .gst file in your
|
|
|
|
|
home directory. This is a perl-style configuration file and can override
|
|
|
|
|
the defaults for audio and video output sinks.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here is an example .gst file that implements the same defaults as hard-coded
|
|
|
|
|
in the script :
|
|
|
|
|
|
2004-07-08 07:44:01 +00:00
|
|
|
AUDIOSINK = osssink
|
2011-07-07 20:24:38 +00:00
|
|
|
VIDEOSINK = videoconvert ! xvimagesink
|
2004-03-10 12:35:44 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2004-07-08 07:44:01 +00:00
|
|
|
You can change osssink to esdsink or alsasink (if you have
|
|
|
|
|
the plug-in), and you can change xvimagesink to ximagesink, aasink
|
|
|
|
|
or sdlvideosink.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Other plug-ins might be used as well if GStreamer has them.
