[gst-devel] HTTP source plugin

[David SIORPAES]

Hi all,

I am using gstreamer in an embedded environment with quite limited 
resources and I need to use gstreamer-0.8.12 for compatibility reasons 
with some  applications.

I need to instantiate a gst element that acts as a HTTP source but it 
looks like the only one that can do the job is the gnomevfssrc element. 
I would not like to bloat my system with all the gnome libraries this 
plugin depends on so I am trying to sort out an alternative.

Old fashioned glib-based gsthttpsrc element is not there anymore, 
whereas the neon-based plugin "gstneonhttp" is only available in 0.10 
"bad" plugins package.

Is there any other solution I can look for before backporting the 
neon-based element to 0.8 ? any other hint ?


Thanks & regards,

David Siorpaes
