<div class="gmail_quote">I am developing a lecture-capture application using GStreamer. In the setup multiple video streams (camera, screen capature, white board) arrive at one PC where they are blended and recorded. This requires some complex pipelines to be created, which would be a lot of work to implement using the C API. Therefore I have all the pipelines in configuration files (using the gst-launch syntax) and at runtime they are constructed using the gst_parse_launch call.<div>
<br></div><div>My question is: is this a good approach? I ask because I get the impression that gst-launch is mainly used for prototyping, while the serious work is done in C code. Is it really so? Are there some fundamental limitations to the gst_parse_launch approach that I should be aware of?</div>
