'video/x-raw,format=(string)I420,width=320,height=240,framerate=(fraction)25/1' ! queue ! mux. alsasrc ! audioconvert ! 'audio/x-raw,rate=44100,channels=2' ! queue ! mux. avimux name=mux ! filesink location=script-test.avi </div> <div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif; background-color: transparent; font-style: normal;"> I would like to replicate that in a program and my program is below. However, the video does not make it through - the Audio plays OK when I play the avi file. It had been suggested that videorate and audiorate might be beneficial for me. In my program, if I included audiorate (as indicated by the commented out lines), I just heard a brief burst of sound at the beginning of the clip, whereas without audiorate, I heard the full audio. Including/excluding videorate does not seem to make any difference at the moment. I tried to set a value for "norm" on the v4l2src as PAL, but the compiler did not recognise the ENUM value. The only way I could set it was to use the value indicated by gst-inspect. I assume that I have done something stupid again, but I cannot see what it is. Thanks for your help.
