Gstreamer and Python on the Mac

[Andoni Morales]

Hi Jack,

Support for gobject-introspection was merged some time ago in cerbero, so
you already have everything you need to use GStreamer with python in OS X.
An example of project using it is pitivi, for which there is a recipe too.

If there is anything missing or something you want to fix/change, file bugs
in bugzilla for the component "cerbero":

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=GStreamer;component=cerbero
