{{Package-Introduction|The GStreamer package contains a streaming media framework that enables applications to share a common set of plugins for things like video decoding and encoding, audio encoding and decoding, audio and video filters, audio visualisation, Web streaming and anything else that streams in real-time or otherwise. It is modelled after research software worked on at the Oregon Graduate Institute.

After installing GStreamer, you'll likely need to install one or more of the [[Gst-plugins-base]], [[Gst-plugins-good]], [[Gst-plugins-ugly]], [[Gst-plugins-bad]], and [[Gst-ffmpeg]] packages.|http://www.gstreamer.net}}
