| ChangeLog |
| --------- |
| |
| The upstream ChangeLog is not included in all the plugin packages due to its |
| large size. Please see upstream sources if you are interested in detailed |
| source changes. |
| |
| External tools support |
| ---------------------- |
| |
| Your favorite codec isn't wrapped as a plugin? External programs can be |
| used to process streams. Take a look at "pipefilter" element or try |
| something like this (untested): |
| |
| $ mkfifo fifo |
| $ gst-launch myaudiosrc ! filesink location=fifo & |
| $ cat fifo | my_encoder > output_file |
