I’m on linux running version 1.10, but 1.14 is okay too.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> The device delivers YUV pixels to memory. I can grab them from memory mapped buffers. I’d like to plug them into the gstreamer software, but I’m not sure where.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> I started with the source for videotestsrc, but I need something more than just a handful of colors. Next I thought v4l2src, but I don’t need something that does all the v4l2 driver protocol. Something closer to filesrc, but live, non-seekable. I just need to grab pixels from memory (that memory mapped buffer), and put them out as video. I tried gst-plugins-bad/tools/gst-element-maker with a couple of the entries in element-templates, but got confusing results. I think I want something that generates output like videotestsrc does. Using “gst-element-maker mytest video-encoder” looks promising, but the example launch line generated shows “fakesrc ! mytest ! …” . I don’t think I want something pushing buffers in. Or do I need to write a uri that tells the rest of the infrastructure how to talk to the memory mapped buffers instead?<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Thanks,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>blueshirt<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
