<title>Autopluggers</title>

<para>
|
|
&GStreamer; has an autoplugging mechanism, which enables application writers
|
|
to simply specify start and end elements for a path, and the system will
|
|
then create a path which links these elements, in accordance with the type
|
|
information provided by the elements.

|
|
It is possible to devise many different schemes for generating such
|
|
pathways, perhaps to optimise based on special criteria, or with some
|
|
specific constraints. It is thus possible to define new autoplugging
|
|
systems, using the plugin system.
