RTMP plugin for gstreamer

RTMP plugin for gstreamer

I have been trying to add RTMP plugin to my image. In particular, I need
the rtmpsink element. I have tried adding gst-plugins-bad-meta to my
local.conf but this does not generate the libgstrtmp.so. Is there a special
procedure to add this plugin to my image? Any help is much appreciated.

Have you tried to add in your local.conf:

PACKAGECONFIG_append_pn-gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad = " rtmp"

This enables rtmp plugin in "gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad" recipe.

PS: Extra space in quotes is required.

Tried it with no luck. The image bakes with no error but libgstrtmp.so is
not populated.
I saw in the README for rtmp plugin says :

*"This plugin requires librtmp from http://rtmpdump.mplayerhq.hu/
<http://rtmpdump.mplayerhq.hu/>*

*You have to build librtmp with -fPIC to be able to use it*
*with the GStreamer plugin: make XCFLAGS="-fPIC""*

I am fairly new to YOCTO. Not sure if I should modify the recipe (or any
other file for that matter ) to address this.

You shouldn't modify any recipes to build your own custom image: this
isn't a yocto way. Usually only recipe's developers modify them. Many
packages in yocto could be configured using config file(s). When
config files are not enough for your goals, you can override/extend
recipes (or their parts) with .bbappend files. Original recipes should
be modified by you in very rare cases when your goal can't be achieved
with above steps (errors, missing functionality, etc.). Please refer
to yocto/bitbake documentation to understand their core principles.

For gstreamer's rtmp plugin yocto already have support in recipes and
all you need is just enable it in your config files as I proposed. For
example in config/local.conf in your build dir. I've checked this with
mine image and I got rtmpsink plugin built. Please, double check your
config file.

If you still unlucky, you could try to do a clean build of gstreamer's
plugins only:

   bitbake -c clean gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad
   bitbake <your_image_name_here>

Thanks for this clarification.  Doing a  "bitbake -c clean
gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad" did the job and the subsequently built image
populated the plugin. Thanks again.
