Hello. This is Bharath. I am currently studying in 6th semester, Computer science, PESIT college, Bangalore.

I have great passion for multimedia technology. I also have done few web applications related to this.

I am well versed in C, C++, python and believe i have a good control over them.

Looking through the projects list in gsoc i found this interesting. I have gone through all the links posted.

I have few doubts to be cleared :

1. Is this a standalone application or web application ?
2. Which language is to be used ( C or Python) ? [ the source code in github is in C but issue #21 says requirement of python api ]
3. Where can i start from?

Thanks

gst-switch is a standalone application.

The code for gst-switch can be found at https://github.com/timvideos/gst-switch , it is written in C using gtk and gstreamer libraries.

1. Where can i start from?

Start by downloading the gst-switch, building it (and gstreamer-1.0 via ./scripts/stage) and do a "make demo".
