GSTREAMER PLUGIN BUNDLE FOR NVIDIA GPUS
---------------------------------------

This is a bundle of gstreamer plugins which use NVIDIA CUDA technology to run on NVIDIA GPUs.
To build those plugins you have to install gstreamer 0.10 and NVIDIA CUDA SDK 5.5.22 for Linux.
To use the plugins you need an NVIDIA GPU with compute capability 2.0 or higher.



BUILD INSTRUCTIONS
------------------

1. 'git clone' or copy the sources into your Nsight Eclipse Edition workspace

2. Execute configure.py

3. From Nsight IDE import all projects into your workspace (File -> Import... -> General -> Exsting Projects into Workspace)

4. Build plugins you need

5. Copy libgstcuda*.so files to /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/



GSTREAMER PIPELINE EXAMPLES
---------------------------

There are two special plugins: cudahost2gpu opens a CUDA pipeline and cudagpu2host closes the CUDA pipeline. All other CUDA plugins 
must be in between.
