gst-launch syntax question

["Johnny G. Mills" <johnny@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hey community,

First a small introduction. I'm Johnny G. Mills from Spotcrowd.com a start-up doing retail video surveillance.

Started with GStreamer (and C) a month ago.

when using gst_parse_launch / CLI I don't understand the backslash. Example:

src: http://wiki.oz9aec.net/index.php/Gstreamer_cheat_sheet#Encoding_and_Muxing

gst-launch

​-1.0​

videotestsrc num-buffers=500 ! video/x-raw-yuv, framerate=25/1, width=640, height=360 ! x264enc \ ! mpegtsmux ! filesink location=test.ts

What does this do?

Thank you,

Johnny G. Mills
