GStreamer - Where We Are and Where We Are Going (OS News)

[Posted January 14, 2004 by cook]

Christian Schaller writes about GStreamer on OS News. "The core concept in GStreamer is that of a pipeline system which your media streams through. This means you have one or more sources which can be anything like a file, an URL or a hardware device. Depending on how you construct your pipeline you can then have lots of things happening to that media stream before it ends up in one or more sinks at the other end of your pipeline. The sinks can be like the sources; a web stream, a file or hardware device; all depending on what plugins and elements you have installed."
