Robert implemented the gstreamer interface it in order to interface Opal 
to video and audio codecs that only had gstreamer interfaces. He worked 
through a large number of issues to make gstreamer work in real-time as 
opposed to streaming mode. He also had it working on both Windows and Linux.

It is fully working in real-time on an embedded platform for both 
encoded video and audio.

It would be a shame to see that work duplicated.
