This package only provides base functionality and libraries. You may need at least and one of Good, Bad, Ugly or Libav plugins. &lfs10_checked; Package Information Download (HTTP): Download (FTP): Download MD5 sum: &gstreamer10-md5sum; Download size: &gstreamer10-size; Estimated disk space required: &gstreamer10-buildsize; Estimated build time: &gstreamer10-time; gstreamer Dependencies Required Recommended Optional (for examples), , , bash-completion, hotdoc, libdw, and libunwind User Notes: Installation of gstreamer Install gstreamer by running the following commands: mkdir build && cd build && meson --prefix=/usr \ -Dbuildtype=release \ -Dgst_debug=false \ -Dpackage-origin=http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/ \ -Dpackage-name="GStreamer &gstreamer10-version; BLFS" && ninja To test the results, issue: ninja test. If you are reinstalling gstreamer from a previous version, it is best if you remove the prior version, including plugins, before installing the new version. If there is a mixture of versions installed, using processes may hang or not work properly. As the root user: rm -rf /usr/bin/gst-* /usr/{lib,libexec}/gstreamer-1.0 Now, as the root user: ninja install Contents Installed Programs Installed Libraries Installed Directories gst-inspect-1.0, gst-launch-1.0, gst-stats-1.0, gst-tester-1.0, and gst-typefind-1.0 libgstbase-1.0.so, libgstcheck-1.0.so, libgstcontroller-1.0.so, libgstnet-1.0.so, and libgstreamer-1.0.so /usr/{include,lib,libexec,share}/gstreamer-1.0 Short Descriptions gst-inspect-1.0 is a tool that prints out information on available gstreamer plugins, information about a particular plugin, or information about a particular element. gst-inspect-1.0 gst-launch-1.0 is a tool that builds and runs basic gstreamer pipelines. gst-launch-1.0 gst-stats-1.0 is a tool used to gather statistics about gstreamer operations. gst-stats-1.0 gst-tester-1.0 runs a test plan in TAP compatible format while integrating with the meson test harness. gst-tester-1.0 gst-typefind-1.0 uses the gstreamer type finding system to determine the relevant gstreamer plugin to parse or decode files, and the corresponding MIME type. gst-typefind-1.0 libgstbase-1.0.so provides some base classes to be extended by elements and utillity classes that are most useful for plugin developers. libgstbase-1.0.so libgstcheck-1.0.so provides functionality for writing unit tests that use the check framework. libgstcheck-1.0.so libgstcontroller-1.0.so provides functionality to animate element properties over time. libgstcontroller-1.0.so libgstnet-1.0.so provides network elements and objects. libgstnet-1.0.so libgstreamer-1.0.so provides all of the core gstreamer services, including initialization, plugin management and types, as well as the object hierarchy that defines elements and bins, along with some more specialized elements. libgstreamer-1.0.so
