Description

This package enhances ADTF to capture, process, encode, decode and transform image, audio and video based data using GStreamer.

With GStreamer, ADTF provides a comfortable way for modelling GStreamer pipelines and process, decode and encode various streams containing audio, image and video data, feed the GStreamer pipeline with images from ADTF and vice versa.

GStreamer is a library with a large number of plugins for processing image, audio and video streams. This includes compressing in h264, h265, ... as well as playing and saving in common container formats such as .mp4, .mkv, .avi or accessing video streams from network via RSTP and friends.

For more details please follow the link of the framework.

Please have a look at Release Notes.
