3 gst\-xmllaunch \- build and run a GStreamer pipeline from an XML serialization
5 \fBgst\-xmllaunch\fR \fI[OPTION...]\fR XML\-FILE [ ELEMENT.PROPERTY=VALUE ... ]
8 \fIgst\-xmllaunch\fP is a tool that is used to build and run a basic
9 \fIGStreamer\fP pipeline, loading it from an XML description. You can
10 produce the XML description using gst-launch(1) with the -o option or by
11 calling gst_xml_write_file() in your own app.
13 A simple commandline looks like:
15 gst\-xmllaunch my\-pipeline.xml filesrc0.location=music.mp3
17 This sets the location property of the element named filesrc0 to the value
18 "music.mp3". See gst\-launch(1) for syntax on setting element names, and
19 gst\-inspect to see what properties various elements have.
21 You can pass "-" as the XML\-FILE to read from stdin.
23 XML\-FILE can be a URI as well, thanks to the wizardry of libxml. I'm not really
24 sure what all is supported, it seems http works just fine though.
