AW: appsrc using fopen

[Bernhard Graaf]

Thank you Sebastian,

That was the problem (I haven't understood 'GstBuffer' :-)).
I will try your example.

That's not how GstBuffer works. You're here overwriting the GstBuffer
datastructure with the data from the file.

To get access to the memory area of the buffer, you need to map it
first. For example try the following:
  GstMapInfo map;
  gst_buffer_map(buffer, &map, GST_MAP_WRITE);
  fread(map.data, 1, mal.size, app->file);
  gst_buffer_unmap(buffer, &map);
