Gstreamer Python Bindings For Windows

I am looking into gstreamer as a means to choose a video device from a list to feed it to an opencv script. I absolutely do not understand how to use gstreamer with python in windo

Solution 1:

The installer from http://sourceforge.net/projects/pygobjectwin32/files/ should works for the test case that Tom gave. Try to match which plugins installed by pygi installer with the one from official gstreamer.

The installer try to be a "portable and private" installation for each python without registry/environmen vars changes.

My note about the runtime dlls, it's recommended not to mixing the runtime cause the one from pygi is made specifically for python a.k.a linked to msvcrt preferred by python, and use stat() convention that used by python too. If a public api such glib's stat() use different convention than other dll then a runtime mixing could lead to a silent crash. Other than that it may works fine though.
