gstreamer is a massive software-library for audio/video encoding/transcoding/decoding – it provides multiple user interfaces (commandline, python, c/c++) all with their own possibilities (though we'll focus on the commandline and python-based interfaces in this course) mainly in describing 'pipelines' : a graph based structure describing the needed functionality, and an event-based system to handle clocks/network/user interaction.

  • simple recording & streaming setups
  • setting up & debugging pipelines
  • an intro in different Codecs and Containers
  • rolling your own A/V tools (with bash, python, proce55ing, puredata, C/C++)
  • Examples : a 16-channel audio / video playback, a network-controlled video-player,…
  • Raspberry-Pi specifics (OpenMAX, installation, debugging)

We ask 70EUR per participant for the full course.
