Using Gstreamer to stream openGL framebuffer

[Michael MacIntosh]

If you actually have frames from some other source you could use the 
appsrc element to push your openGL buffers into your pipeline that would 
stream it to some source.  But you would probably need to timestamp your 
buffers as you push them into the pipeline. There are also a few 
examples on how to use appsrc / appsink in the repo (they are very useful).

Cheers,
Michael.
