Implemented Interfaces

GstAppSrc implements GstURIHandler.

Description

The appsrc element can be used by applications to insert data into a GStreamer pipeline. Unlike most GStreamer elements, Appsrc provides external API functions.

For the documentation of the API, please see the

libgstapp section in the

GStreamer Plugins Base Libraries documentation.
