gst-install1

Installs missing gstreamer plugins

Usage

gst-install [OPTIONS] plugin ...

Overview

Gst-install makes use of the PackageKit session D-Bus interface to install missing GStreamer plugins, e.g. encoders, decoders or URI handlers. It isn't supposed to be executed directly but instead by the gst_install_plugins_async and gst_install_plugins functions of the GStreamer base library gstpbutilsinstallplugins.

PackageKit or the alternative session-installer implementation will handle the complete installation process with confirmation, progress and error dialogs.

See the documentation of gstpbutilsinstallplugins for the argument construction and exit states.

Options

--transient-for

The X Window ID of the window which should be used as parents for the dialogs
