Hi Stephen, At UNINETT we have also made attempts to configure a gstreamer pipline to make a MH capture agent record a stream from a Teradek Cube unit. We concluded that there was a bug in MH causing a correct pipeline (which was accepted by gst-launch) to fail. We reported the bug. I believe this was for MH 1.1. I haven't checked if the bug has been addressed.
