Hi, <div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Apr 18, 2010 at 5:06 PM, Steve Ricketts <<a href="mailto:velocedge@hotmail.com">velocedge@hotmail.com</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> I'm developing an application in C#/Mono in which I need to use both audio and video bi-directionally over a sockets connection on Linux. I am asking if GStreamer can do the following tasks: Audio 1. Take GSM 6.10 audio from a byte array and play it on the speaker 2. Convert a PCM byte array to GSM 6.10 </blockquote><div> For inserting/getting byte arrays of data on a gstreamer pipeline you can use appsink and appsrc: <a href="http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/manual/html/section-data-spoof.html">http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/manual/html/section-data-spoof.html</a> <a href="http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gst-plugins-base-plugins/html/gst-plugins-base-plugins-plugin-app.html">http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gst-plugins-base-plugins/html/gst-plugins-base-plugins-plugin-app.html</a> gstreamer has GSM suppport: <a href="http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gst-plugins-bad-plugins/html/gst-plugins-bad-plugins-plugin-gsm.html">http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gst-plugins-bad-plugins/html/gst-plugins-bad-plugins-plugin-gsm.html</a> but i dont know if it is 6.10. </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Video 1.

Convert captured byte array to compressed format (preferably MS MPEG42 to integrate with existing app... could be other format) </blockquote><div> for video in linux you can use: <a href="http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gst-plugins-base-plugins/html/gst-plugins-base-plugins-plugin-video4linux.html">http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gst-plugins-base-plugins/html/gst-plugins-base-plugins-plugin-video4linux.html</a> and to extract the data as byte arrays you already know :-). </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> The audio functions are by far the most important right now. If GStreamer can do the above audio functions, what do I need to download for openSUSE 11.2 to get the latest version? </blockquote><div> I'm not very used with openSUSE, on Ubuntu i usually install almost all gstreamer plugins that comes with my distro :-). But installing gstreamer, gstreamer-base, gstreamer-good, gstreamer-bad and gstreamer-ffmpeg (I believe that the MPEG encoding will be here) should do it for you. </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Thanks for your advice, Steve </blockquote><div> best regards, Katcipis </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
