If it is HTML5 video, it should be pretty obvious from the page source. For arbitrary Flash based players, there is no standard way to derive the media URL that I know of. > I've been googling for sites for half the day and can't find any sites that Gstreamer will decode? GStreamer can handle almost all formats over http which it can use for local file playback as well. This is highly dependent on which plugins you have installed in your system however. If you use the playbin2 element, GStreamer should even tell you which kind of elements you are missing. Regards, --Ren?
