Not exactly. :-) GStreamer is a platform independent multimedia library.
Obviously, using it with V4L2 makes it Linux dependent but there's not
necessarily a GUI associated with it. Most programs that use GStreamer
just happen to have one but like I said, gst-launch has no GUI and it
often takes only a few lines of code to do cool things.

I don't see anything obviously wrong with this. But then again, different
programs parse the command line very differently. Have you tried "-t15"
without the space? Also, the man page mentiones a second time format:
`-t duration'
Set the recording time in seconds. hh:mm:ss[.xxx] syntax is also
supported.
Might be worth a shot ...
Cheers,
Martin
