           Summary: Add a source element that reads from memory
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: HEAD CVS
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gstreamer (core)

     GNOME version: Unspecified
   GNOME milestone: Unspecified


While it is possible to write a GStreamer application that reads from memory
using various tricks (eg hacks): fdsrc+pipes, identity+pad_push etc.

However, there is no officially documented and supported way. I think that
adding a separate element would make it easier for application developers to
easily use GStreamers in scenarios when data is accessed through a memory
stream.
