gnlfilesource problem under windows

[FastRidingZebra]

Hy,

I'm trying to use gnlfilesource under windows.
I tried this pipe:

C:\Program Files (x86)\OSSBuild\GStreamer\v0.10.7\bin>gst-launch.exe gnlfilesource location=testvid.ogv caps=video/x-raw-yuv media-start=1000000000 duration=5000000000 media-duration=5000000000 ! theoraenc ! oggmux ! filesink location=blahh.ogv

but I get:

Setting pipeline to PAUSED ...
0:00:00.100006000  5800   00869800 ERROR                basesrc gstbasesrc.c:3022:gst_base_src_activate_pull:<source> Failed to start in pull mode

I think the problem is the "file:" in the filepath.
Does somebody know where this is coming from?
Thx for help.

Hi,

Would you please somebody tell me how I can set "tune" parameter for x264enc as zerolatancy by "g_object_set" function in C?

Thank you,

Safa

OK... I found a solution for this:

I use gnlurisource now and create the uri like this:

uri =file:///C:\\temp\\testvid.ogv

Seems like uri under windows needs an additional slash behind "file:".

It is not only gnlfilesource that requires the uri in that format, all gstreamer elements accepting an uri require this format.  I think it would be a good idea to add a sentence to the main GStreamer documentation that the uri in Windows must look like "file:///C:\\temp\\testvid.ogv".  When I was starting my journey with GStreamer I discovered that format by trial and error, I couldn't google it anywhere.
