Known as a pipeline based multimedia framework written in the C programming language with the type system based on GObject, the GStreamer allows a programmer to create a variety of media-handling components, including simple audio playback, audio and video playback, recording, streaming, and editing. The pipeline design serves as a base to create many types of multimedia applications such as video editors, streaming media broadcasters, and media players.

GStreamer project was founded by Erik Walthinsen in 1999. It’s core design ideas came from a research project at the Oregon Graduate Institute. Wim Taymans joined the project soon thereafter and greatly expanded on many aspects of the system. Many others around the world have contributed to various degrees since then.

Brock A. Frazier designed the GStreamer logo; Frazier worked for an embedded Linux company called RidgeRun, which also became the first corporate sponsor of GStreamer in the form of hiring Erik Walthinsen to develop methods for embedding GStreamer in smaller (cell phone-class) devices.
