An OBS Studio source plugin to feed GStreamer launch pipelines into OBS Studio.
This plugin has interesting use cases but may be difficult to understand and is clunky use if you are not familiar with GStreamer.
Experimental prebuilt 64-bit Windows plugin is available. You still require the official GStreamer run-time to be installed.
Experimental prebuilt macOS plugin available. You still require the GStreamer run-time installed via Homebrew or Macports.
Experimental prebuilt Linux plugin is available. You still require the GStreamer run-time installed via your Linux ditribution's package manager.
This plugin makes use of the GStreamer launch pipeline descriptions. Please refer to the GStreamer documentation to understand what this means:
https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/documentation/tools/gst-launch.html
This plugins provides two media sinks named video and audio. These are the
media sinks that hand over data to OBS Studio. So your pipeline should connect
to these sinks.
An example pipeline:
videotestsrc is-live=true ! video/x-raw, framerate=30/1, width=960, height=540 ! video. audiotestsrc wave=ticks is-live=true ! audio/x-raw, channels=2, rate=44100 ! audio.
RTMP example:
uridecodebin uri=rtmp://184.72.239.149/vod/mp4:bigbuckbunny_1500.mp4 name=bin ! queue ! video. bin. ! queue ! audio.
RTSP example:
uridecodebin uri=rtsp://184.72.239.149/vod/mp4:BigBuckBunny_115k.mov name=bin ! queue ! video. bin. ! queue ! audio.
HLS example:
uridecodebin uri=http://184.72.239.149:1935/vod/mp4:sample.mp4/playlist.m3u8 name=bin ! queue ! video. bin. ! queue ! audio.
