Sure. You can do
export GST_PLUGIN_PATH=/home/aaron/build/gst-plugins-bad
to make GStreamer look for extra plugins there. It will/should then
pick up things from your build tree.
We also have a so-called "uninstalled" setup for dev purposes.
For the old one based on autotools see https://cgit.freedesktop.org/gst
reamer/gstreamer/tree/scripts/create-uninstalled-setup.sh
For the new one based on Meson, see the gst-build module in git (you
can run 'ninja uninstalled' there to get into the uninstalled
environment once you've run meson).
Cheers
-Tim
