playable on a PS3 using gst-launch
To: Mark Nauwelaerts <manauw at skynet.be>
If I add the identity element I get the following output:
gst-launch -v filesrc
location=Shrek.the.Halls.720p.HDTV.AVC.AC3-GB.mkv ! matroskademux
name=d ffmux_mp4 name=m ! filesink location=test.mp4 d.video_00 !
queue ! identity ! m.video_00 d.audio_00 ! queue ! identity !
m.audio_00

I don't really know what all this means, but maybe someone else do?
