NAME

       gst-xmllaunch - build and run a GStreamer pipeline from an XML serialization

SYNOPSIS

       gst-xmllaunch [OPTION...] XML-FILE [ ELEMENT.PROPERTY=VALUE ... ]

DESCRIPTION

       gst-xmllaunch  is a tool that is used to build and run a basic GStreamer pipeline, loading
       it from an XML description. You can produce the XML description  using  gst-launch-0.10(1)
       with the -o option or by calling gst_xml_write_file() in your own app.

       A simple commandline looks like:

        gst-xmllaunch my-pipeline.xml filesrc0.location=music.mp3

       This  sets  the  location property of the element named filesrc0 to the value "music.mp3".
       See gst-launch(1) for syntax on  setting  element  names,  and  gst-inspect  to  see  what
       properties various elements have.

       You can pass "-" as the XML-FILE to read from stdin.

       XML-FILE  can be a URI as well, thanks to the wizardry of libxml. I'm not really sure what
       all is supported, it seems http works just fine though.

WARNING

       gst-xmllaunch is deprecated and broken for all but the most simple pipelines. It will most
       likely be removed in future. Don't use it.
