Implemented Interfaces

GstAutoConvert implements GstChildProxy.

Description

The autoconvert element has one sink and one source pad. It will look for other elements that also have one sink and one source pad. It will then pick an element that matches the caps on both sides. If the caps change, it may change the selected element if the current one no longer matches the caps.

The list of element it will look into can be specified in the “factories” property, otherwise it will look at all available elements.
