It is modelled after research software worked on at the Oregon Graduate Institute. After installing GStreamer, you'll likely need to install one or more of the , , and packages. &lfs77_checked; &gst-compat; Package Information Download (HTTP): Download (FTP): Download MD5 sum: &gstreamer-md5sum; Download size: &gstreamer-size; Estimated disk space required: &gstreamer-buildsize; Estimated build time: &gstreamer-time; GStreamer Dependencies Required and Optional (Required if building GNOME) Optional , (optionally used during the unit regression tests) Optional (Required to rebuild the API Documentation) and Optional (Required to Build Manuals) , and (or ) User Notes: Install GStreamer by running the following commands: sed -i -e '/YYLEX_PARAM/d' \ -e '/parse-param.*scanner/i %lex-param { void *scanner }' \ gst/parse/grammar.y && ./configure --prefix=/usr \ --disable-static && make To test the results, issue: make check. There are many other Makefile targets you can specify for running the tests, issue make -C tests/check help to see the complete list. Now, as the root user: make install && install -v -m755 -d /usr/share/doc/gstreamer-0.10/design && install -v -m644 docs/design/*.txt \ /usr/share/doc/gstreamer-0.10/design && if [ -d /usr/share/doc/gstreamer-0.10/faq/html ]; then chown -v -R root:root \ /usr/share/doc/gstreamer-0.10/*/html fi To test the functionality of the GStreamer installation, you can run a simple test as an unprivileged user (you may have to run ldconfig as the root user before attempting the test). gst-launch -v fakesrc num_buffers=5 ! fakesink If the command outputs a series of messages from fakesrc and fakesink, everything is okay. sed ... gst/parse/grammar.y: This command corrects a problem caused by the most recent version of Bison. --enable-docbook: This parameter is used to build HTML, PDF and PostScript versions of the GStreamer User's Manual, FAQ and Writer's Guide. Note that you must have all the listed dependencies installed. chown -v -R root:root ...: The documentation is installed with the ownership of the user who untarred and built the package. This command changes the ownership of the installed documentation files to root:root, and is only executed if the documentation files were built and installed.
