NAME
gst-launch-ext - Run a predefined GStreamer pipeline
SYNOPSIS
gst-launch-ext filename [filename...]
DESCRIPTION
gst-launch-ext is a tool that is used to run a basic pre
defined GStreamer 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.
CONFIGURATION
gst-launch-ext can be configured by creating a .gst file
in your home directory. This is a perl-style configura
tion 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 :
AUDIOSINK = "esdsink"; VIDEOSINK = "colorspace !
xvideosink";
You can change esdsink to any of alsasink, jacksink,
osssink (if you have the plug-in), and you can change
xvideosink to aasink or sdlvideosink.
Other plug-ins might be used as well if GStreamer has
them.
