gst-plugins : plug-ins for GStreamer * to develop against uninstalled GStreamer core : add path to gstreamer-uninstalled.pc to PKG_CONFIG_PATH or run configure --with-pkg-config-path=(path to gstreamer uninstalled) * to register plug-ins in source tree run gst-register --gst-plugin-path=. * if a certain plug-in doesn't build, then redo configure with --disable-(plug-in) to disable it from the build * Additional documentation : GStreamer is developed under the terms of the LGPL (see LICENSE file for details). Some of our plug-ins however rely on libraries which are available under other licenses. This means that if you are using an application which has a non-GPL compatible license (for instance a closed-source application) with GStreamer, you have to make sure not to use GPL-linked plug-ins. When using GPL-linked plug-ins, GStreamer is for all practical reasons under the GPL itself. The plug-ins which use a GPL library are as follows: cdparanoia libcdparanoia (http://www.xiph.org/paranoia/) aasink aalib (http://aa-project.sourceforge.net/aalib/) xmms libxmms (http://www.xmms.org) decdvd ac3dec,mpeg2dec (http://linuxvideo.org/mpeg2dec/,http://linuxvideo.org/ac3dec/)a Plug-ins which use an LGPL library are as follows: colorspace Hermes (http://www.clanlib.org/hermes/) httpsrc libghttp (ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/stable/sources/libghttp/) alsasink alsa (http://alsa-project.org) arts aRts (http://arts-project.org) sdlsink libsdl (http://www.libsdl.org) gnomevfssource gnome-vfs (ftp.gnome.org//pub/GNOME/stable/sources/gnome-vfs) gnomevfssink gnome-vfs esdsink libesd (ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/stable/sources/esound) icastsend libshout (http://www.icecast.org) lame libmp3lame (http://www.mp3dev.org/mp3/) gst1394 libraw1394 (http://linux1394.sourceforge.net) flac libFLAC (http://flac.sourceforge.net) RTP ortp (http://www.linphone.org/ortp/) Plug-ins which use a BSD covered library are as follows: vorbisenc libogg/libvorbis (http://www.xiph.org/ogg/vorbis) vorbisdec libogg/libvorbis Plug-ins based on libraries with other free licenses: xvideosink libXv (MIT X11 / X Consortium license) gsm libgsm (MIT license http://kbs.cs.tu-berlin.de/~jutta/toast.html) Plug-ins using non-free libraries: wincodec win32ddl (http://divx.euro.ru/)
