About:
This package provides the GStreamer plugin for libnice, an implementation of the Interactive Connectivity Establishment (ICE) standard. It enables real-time multimedia applications built with GStreamer to establish peer-to-peer connections across NATs and firewalls. This plugin is essential for developing robust, low-latency video and audio streaming applications that work over the internet.
Key Features:
  • Implements ICE (RFC 5245) for GStreamer pipelines
  • Facilitates NAT traversal for P2P multimedia streams
  • Integrates seamlessly with GStreamer's negotiation logic
  • Supports both STUN and TURN servers
Use Cases:
  • Building WebRTC-capable video conferencing applications
  • Creating peer-to-peer live streaming services
  • Developing multiplayer online games with voice chat
