I usually use Gstreamer in Linux and there I install it simply using the command

yum install gstreamer...

and then I can play an RTP stream by the command gst-launch-0.01 playbin2 ... Now I need to do the same in Windows and I tried to download the installation application from this website and then I opened the command line and type the following command:

gst-launch-0.10 audiotestsrc ! autoaudiosink

and got this error:

'gst-launch-0.10' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

I know I am missing something like linking or something, but I don't know how to do it!

Do anyone have a good HOWTO step by step on how to install and try gstreamer in Windows?

First off, make sure your path variable points to where you installed gstreamer.

Secondly, you seem to have installed gsteamer-1.0, which is independent of 0.10.

Try running gst-launch instead of gst-launch-0.10
