Yep, but Fabien probably mean that we gain more flexibility by having some
native elements on gstreamer, and I agree with that. One of the problems
that Im afraid of is the plugin having to handle encoding/decoding by it own
when we could just use a framework to do that for us. Because that I think
it would be good to have a set of elements on gstreamer(btaudiosrc,
btaudiosink...)
Btw, my plan is not limited with the current device we have in the market,
it should be good if we think in something more advanced with a support for
various codecs and not limited by stereo headset we have, why not be
able to create a home theater 5.1 wireless system.
