- What is GStreamer?
|
||
|
|
GStreamer allows the construction of graphs of media-handling
|
||
|
|
components, ranging from simple mp3 playback to complex audio
|
||
|
|
(mixing) and video (non-linear editing) processing. Applications
|
||
|
|
can take advantage of advances in codec and filter technology
|
||
|
|
transparently. Developers can add new codecs and filters by writing
|
||
|
|
a simple plugin with a clean, generic interface. GStreamer is
|
||
|
|
released under the LGPL, with many of the included plugins retaining
|
||
|
|
the license of the code they were derived from, usually GPL or BSD.

- Is GStreamer a media player?
|
||
|
|
No, GStreamer is a development framework for creating applications
|
||
|
|
like media players, video editors, streaming media broadcasters and
|
||
|
|
so on. That said, very good media players can easily be built on
|
||
|
|
top of GStreamer and we even include a simple yet functional
|
||
|
|
mediaplayer with GStreamer called Gst-Player
