This pages gives an overview of the GstWebRTCSrc element.

Architecture

RidgeRun's GstWebRTCSrc is used as a standard GStreamer source element. If a pipeline uses the GstWebRTCSource element, it becomes a receive-only endpoint, as shown in Figure 1.

Media Type

GstWebRTCSrc element may receive audio, video or both simultaneously. The supported capabilities are determined at runtime based on the pads that were requested for the elements. Simply said, if a GstWebRTCSrc was created with video and audio pads, it will be capable of receiving both medias. Table 1 summarizes the complete set of possible configurations. At the time being, only one pad of each media type can be created.
