Playing remote file

[Jeffrey Barish]

I play a sound file on the local machine using playbin2 by setting the uri
parameter to file://path.to.file.  Where can I get information about what
other network protocols can be used here?  I would like to be able to use
the uri parameter to specify a sound file on another machine on the same
LAN.  Both machines run Ubuntu.  I suppose that I could copy the file to a
temporary directory on the local machine and then play it from there, but I
suspect that there is a better way to do this.

you can iterate the gstreamer registry and find all features that
provide GstURIHandler. Check what "gst-inspect-0.10 -u" is doing.

Whether I use ftp or sftp as the network protocol, I get the same result:

gst-launch-0.10 playbin uri=ftp://jeffbarish@quartet:/home/jeffbarish/00.ogg
(gst-launch-0.10:4633): GLib-WARNING **: g_set_prgname() called multiple
times
Setting pipeline to PAUSED ...
ERROR: Pipeline doesn't want to pause.
ERROR: from element /GstPlayBin:playbin0/GstGioSrc:source: Could not open
resource for reading.
Additional debug info:
gstgiosrc.c(321): gst_gio_src_get_stream ():
/GstPlayBin:playbin0/GstGioSrc:source:
Location ftp://quartet:0/home/jeffbarish/00.ogg not mounted: The specified
location is not mounted
Setting pipeline to NULL ...
Freeing pipeline ...

I presume that I don't have the servers configured correctly, but I can't
find any information about how they need to be configured for GStreamer.

I guess passing the credentials like this is not supported. Check the
debug log for giosrc and also search in bugzilla (imho there is a bug
for it).
