songbird

Hi all,

I am writing a Songbird addon, with three parts: XUL (javascript), a GStreamer filter and an XPCOM addon.

I am interested in accessing the GStreamer layer from my XPCOM component. If anyone knows any resources on how to do that I'd be grateful.

Specifically, I need documentation or examples on accessing the GStreamer functionality from within my addon (building a GST pipeline and running a file through it, from my XPCOM component (C++).

Thanks :)
