GStreamer

This page documents how to build GStreamer for SH-Mobile.

0: Install dependencies: glib2.0, libxml2. For gst-plugins-base you will also need liboil.

Refer to these notes about cross-compiling glib:

$ ./configure ...

1: Checkout GStreamer core

$ git clone git://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer
$ cd gstreamer
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure --enable-maintainer-mode --enable-failing-tests --enable-poisoning ...

Should give an output like:

$ make

2. gst-plugins-base

You will need liboil. You probably want to explicitly disable some features:

$ ./configure --without-x --disable-gnome_vfs --disable-pango
