[gst-devel] how to create a pipeline to record video from camera?

[michael]

Now I can record the video to a AVI file with mpeg4 encoding by :
gst-launch v4l2src ! 'video/x-raw-yuv,width=320,height=240,
framerate=30/1' ! ffmpegcolorspace ! ffenc_mpeg4 ! avimux ! filesink
location=record.avi

But I got two issues:
1: I want record as a MP4 file, I do it like this:
gst-launch v4l2src ! 'video/x-raw-yuv,width=320,height=240,
framerate=30/1' ! ffmpegcolorspace ! ffenc_mpeg4 ! mp4mux ! filesink
location=record.avi
I can record the video , but when I playback it by mplayer, I got a error:
Playing ./record.mp4.
libavformat file format detected.
[mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2 @ 0x8741640]moov atom not found
LAVF_header: av_open_input_stream() failed
ISO: File Type Major Brand: ISO/IEC 14496-1 (MPEG-4 system) v2

2: I want encode the video to H264, so I do like this:
gst-launch v4l2src ! 'video/x-raw-yuv,width=320,height=240, framerate=30/1'
! ffmpegcolorspace ! x264enc ! avimux ! filesink location=record.avi
But when I run the pipeline I just get the error info like this:
Setting pipeline to PAUSED ...
Pipeline is live and does not need PREROLL ...
Setting pipeline to PLAYING ...
New clock: GstSystemClock
ERROR: from element /GstPipeline:pipeline0/GstV4l2Src:v4l2src0: Internal
data flow error.
Additional debug info:
gstbasesrc.c(2550): gst_base_src_loop ():
/GstPipeline:pipeline0/GstV4l2Src:v4l2src0:
streaming task paused, reason not-negotiated (-4)
Execution ended after 1727716724 ns.
Setting pipeline to PAUSED ...
Setting pipeline to READY ...
Setting pipeline to NULL ...
Freeing pipeline ...

Some one can help me fix the issues? Tks :)
