Muxes raw or compressed audio and/or video streams into an AVI file.

Example launch line

(write everything in one line, without the backslash characters)

gst-launch-0.10 videotestsrc num-buffers=250 \
! 'video/x-raw-yuv,format=(fourcc)I420,width=320,height=240,framerate=(fraction)25/1' \
! queue ! mux. \
audiotestsrc num-buffers=440 ! audioconvert \
! 'audio/x-raw-int,rate=44100,channels=2' ! queue ! mux. \
avimux name=mux ! filesink location=test.avi

This will create an .AVI file containing an uncompressed video stream with a test picture and an uncompressed audio stream containing a test sound.

Another example launch line

(write everything in one line, without the backslash characters)

gst-launch-0.10 videotestsrc num-buffers=250 \
! 'video/x-raw-yuv,format=(fourcc)I420,width=320,height=240,framerate=(fraction)25/1' \
! xvidenc ! queue ! mux. \
audiotestsrc num-buffers=440 ! audioconvert ! 'audio/x-raw-int,rate=44100,channels=2' \
! lame ! queue ! mux. \
avimux name=mux ! filesink location=test.avi

This will create an .AVI file containing the same test video and sound as above, only that both streams will be compressed this time. This will only work if you have the necessary encoder elements installed of course.
