Hi,

 Hello,

I am a beginner to Gstreamer world. Till now I have gone through most of the
docs available regarding gstreamer and its implementation in n770. What I
have understood is in n770, there exists a new plugin "dspsink" which is
used as sink plugin instead of "OSS" or "ASLA" sink plugins used in normal
PCs.

   So far so good.

I went through the opensource "dspgateway" project hosted on sourceforge.net
also.

  Great! you'll need that if you want to write a DSP-based gstreamer plugin.

But I am not able to find the "dspsink" gstreamer plugin source code. Is
this not released as a part of gstreamer plugins? Is this source code
available somewhere?

  No! that is not an open-source plugin and it has been written by
Nokia and not the gstreamer community.

OR atleast is there any documentation available regarding the same.

  Regarding the usage, you can get all the info you need from the
output of gst-inspect but i doubt you can get to see any inside info.
as the source-code is nto available.

I needed the above info b'coz I am trying to add a new sink plugin for a
different "dsp" device. So if I can get any info on writing new sink plugins
, it will be of much help. The "plugins writers guide" is too primitive for
a beginner to implement a plugin.

   I don't think so. The PWG is where i started from and i still seek
guidance from it whenever i need to write a gstreamer plugin. You can
see the sources of all the open-source plugins written by the
community. IMHO, you should first write a non-DSP version of your
plugin and after you are done with that, you can convert the main-code
to a DSP task and have your plugins communicate with your DSP task via
the dspgateway utils.
