Notes for compilation:
1. For compiling the code along with the Makefile given, a OE setup is mandatory.
2. Before compiling, change the paths as per the setup of your environment.
Please refer the Gstreamer Application Development Manual at the below link before proceeding further
http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/manual/html/index.html
Comprehensive documentation for Gstreamer
http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/documentation/
The following elements/plugins/packages are expected to be in the module image for this to work
gstreamer
gst-plugins-base
gst-plugins-good-wavparse
gst-plugins-good-alsa
gst-plugins-good-audioconvert
gst-plugins-ugly-mad
Pipeline to play .wav audio file from command line
gst-launch filesrc location="location of file" ! wavparse ! alsasink
Pipeline to play .mp3 audio file from command line
gst-launch filesrc location="location of file" ! mad ! audioconvert ! alsasink
It is also assumed that the USB to Audio device is the only audio device being used on the system, if not the
"device" parameter for alsasink will change and the parameter to be used needs to be checked with cat /proc/asound/cards,
which then needs to be set as follows
In gstreamer pipeline
Pipeline to play .wav audio file from command line
gst-launch filesrc location="location of file" ! wavparse ! alsasink device=hw:1,0
Pipeline to play .mp3 audio file from command line
gst-launch filesrc location="location of file" ! mad ! audioconvert ! alsasink device=hw:1,0
In code initialisation in init_audio_playback_pipeline
g_object_set (G_OBJECT (data->alsasink), "device", "hw:0,0", NULL);
                            OR
g_object_set (G_OBJECT (data->alsasink), "device", "hw:1,0", NULL);
The pipeline will ideally remain the same for a different audio device, only the device parameter for alsasink will change
