Hello, Try the following command, gst-launch-0.10.exe playbin uri="file:///d:/path/a.avi" If it does not work on your computer, there might be a problem in your GStreamer installation. Regards, Kwang Yul Seo <div>2008/1/8, Marko Mikkonen <<a href="mailto:mmikkone@mail.student.oulu.fi">mmikkone@mail.student.oulu.fi</a>>:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Hello, What kind of command do you use to play any video file on Windows with gst-launch (video _and_ sound)? So far I've tried playbin, but it doesn't work (there is no FILE protocol handler on Windows, apparently), so I suspect you should use decodebin? I've been trying a million different combinations, but I just can't find the right one. -Marko P.S. I guess this is not really a developer question but instead a user question, so perhaps this is not the right forum. But I couldn't find a better place to ask. Is there a better place? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
