Notes
=====

ChangeLog
---------

The upstream ChangeLog is not included in all the plugin packages due to its
large size.  Please see upstream sources if you are interested in detailed
source changes.

External tools support
----------------------

Your favorite codec isn't wrapped as a plugin?  External programs can be
used to process streams.  Take a look at "pipefilter" element or try
something like this (untested):

$ mkfifo fifo
  $ gst-launch myaudiosrc ! filesink location=fifo &
  $ cat fifo | my_encoder > output_file
