GStreamer Serial Plugin
GStreamer Serial Plugin – Stream Serial Data into GStreamer Pipelines The GStreamer Serial Plugin by RidgeRun allows seamless integration of serial port communication into GStreamer pipelines. Designed for embedded and real-time systems, this plugin enables developers to ingest serial data as part of a multimedia or metadata pipeline, opening new possibilities in video tagging, sensor integration, command handling, and KLV metadata injection. Through the plugin’s serialsrc element, serial input is packaged into GStreamer buffers and passed downstream for further processing. With full control over serial port configuration—including baud rate, parity, stop bits, flow control, and more—this tool is ideal for building flexible, robust embedded applications.
