GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 166752
gstreamer plug-in request: NSF
Last modified: 2005-08-29 15:43:41 UTC
NSF files are Nintendo Sound Format. They are files which hold multiple streams, which are composed of CPU data to be run through a Nintendo NES emulator. I would like to see an NSF plug-in for gstreamer. This may be accomplishable by referencing the file as a directory, if gstreamer has no existing way to handle files containing multiple streams. For example, dw4.nsf/33 would be Nara and Mara's battle theme (Dragon Warrior 4 NSF, track 33). The '/' character is an invalid character for a file name IIRC, so this notation should "work" for multi-stream files. http://www.zophar.net/music.html
There's work on NSF support in another bug... *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 151192 ***
GStreamer has ways to handle multiple streams, so don't worry about that (and we don't need any filename hacks like the one you proposed)
