Description
Reads data from multiple files, presenting those files as one continuous file to downstream elements. This is useful for reading a large file that had to be split into multiple parts due to filesystem file size limitations, for example.
The files to select are chosen via the location property, which supports (and expects) shell-style wildcards (but only for the filename, not for directories). The results will be sorted.
Example launch lines
1 |
gst-launch-1.0 splitfilesrc location="/path/to/part-*.mpg" ! decodebin ! ... |
1 |
gst-launch-1.0 playbin uri="splitfile://path/to/foo.avi.*" |
