GstRtspSink - C Examples

From RidgeRun Developer Wiki



Previous: Multicast_Audio_Video Index Next: Performance




This wiki provides serves as a guide on how to evaluate the C example applications provided in the project

Location

The C examples are provided in the project. You'll find the sources in

 gst-rtsp-sink/src/examples/

The examples are built along with the the plug-in. All the examples will stream using the following configuration:

Service
12345
Mapping
/ridgerun

Manual Link Example

This example shows an example application on how to manually create and link each element independently. For this gst_element_factory_make and gst_element_link_many are used.
