It is now working. BTW, you have added the element, ffdec_263, after the depayloader. That is the reason why it started to work. You know I had thought of that as well, but the reason why i didn't try it is that the rtph263pdepay gives us a stream that is encoded with h263 codec (that is what we recieved from teh sender). So, i thought it only needs to give this stream to the muxer and then the muxer can store it into file. I still don't understand why (especially a decoder - which I think will decode it back to raw format) is required. Could you please explain for me the idea behind. BTW, the first few frames are very distorted (blurred). <br><br>I am using Gsreater 0.10 version. I think that is the latest.<br><br>Thank you again. It is really a great help.<br><br>- Zelalem S. <br><br><br><hr id="stopSpelling">Date: Mon, 1 Jun 2009 19:08:15 +0530<br>From: bisht.sudarshan@gmail.com<br>To: gstreamer-devel@lists.sourceforge.net<br>Subject: Re: [gst-devel] How to save a stream from a network into a file<br><br><div>Hi ,</div> <div> </div> <div>  Actually i treid following pipeline on my machine , and it works .
