The reason is that a typefinder is a type of plugin to put parts of pipelines together. This can be used for playback purposes, for example. However, GStreamer already includes a fairly powerful typefinder (spider) by default. so creating your own is - in general - not needed. So why's the docs there? Just as a "FYI". :). There's lots of things in there that you won't need, but they're good to know if you want to get into GStreamer development. If you want to know some cool things, read the first three chapters of the plugin writer's guide (4/5 are unfinished). > - network trasparency? We're not. We do have network elements, though. Using a sound server as audio output, you'll be able to do all network-transparent things that you'd want to do, though. > - where are the benchmarks? how fat is it? (Can't speak here...) And before I forget: it'd be great if you'd use GStreamer plus the Qt/C++ bindings in KDE4!
