[gst-devel] Playing remote file

I play a sound file on the local machine using playbin2 by setting the uri 
parameter to file://path.to.file.  Where can I get information about what 
other network protocols can be used here?  I would like to be able to use 
the uri parameter to specify a sound file on another machine on the same 
LAN.  Both machines run Ubuntu.  I suppose that I could copy the file to a 
temporary directory on the local machine and then play it from there, but I 
suspect that there is a better way to do this.
