| .SH "NAME" |
| gst\-xmllaunch \- build and run a GStreamer pipeline from an XML serialization |
| .SH "SYNOPSIS" |
| \fBgst\-xmllaunch\fR \fI[OPTION...]\fR XML\-FILE [ ELEMENT.PROPERTY=VALUE ... ] |
| .SH "DESCRIPTION" |
| .LP |
| \fIgst\-xmllaunch\fP is a tool that is used to build and run a basic |
| \fIGStreamer\fP pipeline, loading it from an XML description. You can |
| produce the XML description using gst-launch(1) with the -o option or by |
| calling gst_xml_write_file() in your own app. |
| |
| A simple commandline looks like: |
| |
| gst\-xmllaunch my\-pipeline.xml filesrc0.location=music.mp3 |
| |
| This sets the location property of the element named filesrc0 to the value |
| "music.mp3". See gst\-launch(1) for syntax on setting element names, and |
| gst\-inspect to see what properties various elements have. |
| |
| You can pass "-" as the XML\-FILE to read from stdin. |
| |
| XML\-FILE can be a URI as well, thanks to the wizardry of libxml. I'm not really |
| sure what all is supported, it seems http works just fine though. |
| |
| . |
| .SH "WARNING" |
| \fIgst\-xmllaunch\fP is deprecated and broken for all but the most simple |
| pipelines. It will most likely be removed in future. Don't use it. |
