[yocto] GStreamer from HTTP source

[Hal Martin]

Hello all,

I'm trying to play live TV on a Wandboard Dual. I have a RTL2832U
DVB-T tuner and I'm using the tvheadend to manage tuning and capture.
I can use VLC on my laptop to play live TV, but I'm not having any
luck getting the Wandboard to play live TV.

gplay doesn't support HTTP streams and gst-launch fails to play the
stream. The totem recipe in open embedded is really old and doesn't
seem to be working, so I'm not sure what I can use to play an HTTP (or
HTSP) stream.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Apologies if this is a
repeat question, I searched the list archives and couldn't find
anything relevant.

Thanks,
Hal
