Ok, so the thing I see is "normal" behaviour. >>Furthermore, I've read that static plugins of gstreamer should be >> loaded with GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE & GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_REGISTER. >> >> Using GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_DECLARE() in my c++ app seems to give no >> issues, but using the REGISTER call, that always returns an 'undefined >> reference to gst_plugin_PLUGINNAME_register()' >> I suspect this is related with gst-inspect not finding anything? > > You have to additionally add the plugin libraries (e.g. > libgstvideoconvert.a) to the libraries that are linked into your > application. I've linked my app to lgstreamer, lgstapp. Then using GST_PLUGIN_STATIC_REGISTER(app) still returns undefined reference to `gst_plugin_app_register()' >> Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong or give me some pointers to a >> descent tutorial on how to build & link gstreamer statically? > > Check the Android or iOS build systems, e.g. from the tutorials. That's where I found how to use the GST_PLUGIN_STATIC stuff.
