If you need to run RASPISTILL or RASPIVID again after the GStreamer is installed. You will need to reinstall a fresh Raspberry Pi OS and follow [[X630-Hardware-Reset | this guide]]
'''1. After the device is booted, update your Raspberry Pi by running the following commands in a terminal window:'''
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade -y
'''2. Install necessary dependency and remaining plugins for GStreamer'''
sudo apt-get install libx264-dev libjpeg-dev
sudo apt-get install libgstreamer1.0-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-dev gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly gstreamer1.0-tools
'''3. With all GStreamer modules installed let's test the installation with (not via SSH)'''
gst-launch-1.0 --version
gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc ! videoconvert ! autovideosink

'''4. Edit /boot/config.txt and enter the following'''

Then add the following comments:
Save and exit with ctrl + x, followed by y when prompted to save, and then enter.

sudo nano edid.txt
then enter the following:
Save and exit with ctrl + x, followed by y when prompted to save, and then enter.
'''8. Push this to the device using'''
v4l2-ctl --set-edid=file=edid.txt --fix-edid-checksums
'''9. To print the currently detected timings'''
v4l2-ctl --query-dv-timings
'''10. To select the currently detected timings'''
v4l2-ctl --set-dv-bt-timings query
'''11. Capture the incoming audio (no video)'''
arecord -D hw:x,0 -V stereo -r 48000 -f S16_LE -c 2 audio.wav
Press ctrl + c to finish a recording, the file will be saved to /home/pi
