Enable GStreamer Support

Ubuntu Image

Once the setup process is complete, GStreamer support must be enabled in order to access and use its APIs and plugins. Following GStreamer's official documentation, install the following packages. These packages provide multimedia processing, plugin support, hardware acceleration, and pipeline development tools:

sudo apt-get install libgstreamer1.0-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-dev gstreamer1.0-plugins-base gstreamer1.0-plugins-good gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly gstreamer1.0-libav gstreamer1.0-tools gstreamer1.0-x gstreamer1.0-alsa gstreamer1.0-gl gstreamer1.0-gtk3 gstreamer1.0-qt5 gstreamer1.0-pulseaudio gstreamer1.0-plugins-base-apps gstreamer1.0-vaapi gstreamer1.0-qcom-sample-apps

Once the packages finish downloading, you can verify the GStreamer version running the following command:

 gst-launch-1.0 --version

If the installation succeeded, you should see a similar output to the following:

gst-launch-1.0 version 1.24.2
GStreamer 1.24.2
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gstreamer1.0

After that, you can continue with the Example Pipelines section to test the different features GStreamer provides.
