<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.
</para>
<para>
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.
