Video Streaming over Ethernet
This section shows how to stream a video over Ethernet using UDP and RTP. Be sure to have the newest gst-plugin-good installed to ensure the best streaming quality.
Define the environment variable HOST with the ip address of the receiver machine (that one that will show the video).
$ export HOST=XX.XX.XX.XX
Do you know how to get caps? i.MX 27 Video GST Caps

Set send-config to true to send configuration with the video. Ensures better deconding
