[gst-devel] How do I get gst-inspect properties for v4l2src device other than /dev/video0?

[Kapil Agrawal]

Are your capture cards supported by v4l2 drivers ? If yes then only you can
use v4l2src.

Assuming it supports, you need to figure out where is your card installed,
like for my blackmagic capture card its /dev/blackmagic/card0 (although
there is no v4l2 support, hence wrote our own src element for blackmagic).

So if its not supported by v4l2 you either check if any other src element
supports your card or write one of your own :)
