GStreamer plugin question
-
Whenever trying to add a stream, I get the error "GStreamer installation is missing a plugin".
Any way I can get more specific info...like WHICH plugin is missing? There are tons of them, so I'd like to know which one I need.
BTW, I believe I am inputting the proper URL for the specific radio station I want hear.
ie: https://tunein.com/radio/Rebel-1017-FM-CIDG-FM-Ottawa-ON-s106243/Any help would be very appreciated.

Plugin depends on audio format. The URL is a web page, not a stream. -
@jonas For clarity, are you saying I need to enter a web page URL (my example is exactly that), or that my example isn't a stream? Also, how can I determine the audio format of an online radio station?
Thanks for your time.

It needs to be a stream.
You can use gst-discoverer-1.0 to find the filetype of a stream:gst-discoverer-1.0 <url> -
@fatso AWESOME! Thank you so much. I'm a total newb with this streaming stuff...can ya tell? LOL
