<a name="gst-plugins-base-plugins-giosrc.description"></a><h2>Description</h2>
<p>This plugin reads data from a local or remote location specified
by an URI. This location can be specified using any protocol supported by
the GIO library or it's VFS backends. Common protocols are 'file', 'http',
'ftp', or 'smb'.</p>
<p>If an URI or <a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/gioGFile.html#GFile-struct"><span class="type">GFile</span></a> is not mounted giosrc will post a message of type
<a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/gstreamer-1.0GstMessage.html#GST-MESSAGE-ELEMENT:CAPS"><code class="literal">GST_MESSAGE_ELEMENT</code></a> with name "not-mounted" on the bus. The message
also contains the <a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/gioGFile.html#GFile-struct"><span class="type">GFile</span></a> and the corresponding URI.
Applications can use the "not-mounted" message to mount the <a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/gioGFile.html#GFile-struct"><span class="type">GFile</span></a>
by calling <a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/gioGFile.html#g-file-mount-enclosing-volume"><code class="function">g_file_mount_enclosing_volume()</code></a> and then restart the
pipeline after the mounting has succeeded. Note that right after the
"not-mounted" message a normal error message is posted on the bus which
should be ignored if "not-mounted" is handled by the application, for
example by calling gst_bus_set_flushing(bus, TRUE) after the "not-mounted"
message was received and gst_bus_set_flushing(bus, FALSE) after the
mounting was successful.</p>

The above pipeline will simply read a local file and do nothing with the
data read. Instead of giosrc, we could just as well have used the
filesrc element here.

SAMBA server.
