gst-xmllaunch - build and run a GStreamer pipeline from an XML serialization

CONTENTS

gst-xmllaunch [--exclude=type1,type2,...] [--iterations=int] [--no-fault] [-output-=file] [--tags] [--trace] [--verbose] [--version] [gst-std-options] XML-file [element.property=value...]

gst-xmllaunch builds and runs a basic GStreamer pipeline, loading it from an XML description. You can produce the XML description using gst-inspect(1) with the -o option or by calling gst_xml_write_file() in your own application.

You can set XML-file to "-", to read from stdin.

XML-file can also be a URI, thanks to libxml.

See gst-launch(1) for the syntax to set element names, and run gst-inspect(1) to see what properties various elements have.

The following options are supported by gst-xmllaunch:

-X, --exclude=type1,type2,... Do not output status information of specified type.

-i, --iterations=int Number of times to iterate pipeline.

-f, --no-fault Do not install a fault handler.

-o, -output-=file Save XML representation of pipeline to file, then exit.

-t, --tags Output tags, also known as metadata.

-T, --trace Print alloc trace, if enabled at compile time.

-v, --verbose Output status information and property notifications.

--version Print GStrea mer version number.

gst-std-options Standard options available for use with most GStreamer applications. See gst-std-options(5) for more information.

Example 1: Setting the Location Property of the Element filesrc0 to "music.mp3". See for syntax on setting element names, and gst-inspect(1) to see what properties various elements have.

example% gst-xmllaunch my-pipeline.xml filesrc0.location=music.mp3

The following files are used by this application:
