I am using souphttpsrc as my source. I want to get the stream meta-data like<br>
Codec(what are the audio/video codecs present in the stream), type<br>
(audio/video stream) etc.<br>
<br>
I checked that using playbin/playbin2 I can find the properties.<br>

<br>
but the problem is I have to transcode the incoming stream from a http URL<br>
to another format.<br>
So I don&#39;t think playbin2 is of any use for me. (CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG<br>
HERE)<br>
<br>
whatever may be the way, I just want to transcode incoming stream for which<br>
I should know the incoming stream format.<br>
So how would I get the stream meta data from &quot;souphttpsrc&quot;<br>
or should I go for playbin2 but then I am doubtful if I would be able to<br>
transcode stream using it.<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
