The GStreamer multimedia framework and the accompanying NLE set of plugins for non-linear editing offer all the building blocks for:
- Decoding and encoding to a wide variety of formats, through all the available GStreamer plugins.
- Easily choosing segments of streams and arranging them through time through the NLE set of plugins. But all those building blocks only offer stream-level access, which results in developers who want to write non-linear editors to write a consequent amount of code to get to the level of non-linear editing notions which are closer and more meaningful for the end-user (and therefore the application).
The GStreamer Editing Services (GES) aims to fill the gap between GStreamer/NLE and the application developer by offering a series of classes to simplify the creation of many kind of editing-related applications.
This package contains development files for the GStreamer editing services.
