## Implementing GStreamer-based Renderers: Simple Example

This simple example program shows how to instantiate the renderer then configure its GStreamer playbin element and connect it to a network interface, rendering the content to stdout as ASCII.

    /*
     * Demo application for librygel-renderer-gst.
     *
     * Creates a simple stand-alone UPnP renderer that renders any visual content
     * in ASCII-art using GStreamer's cacasink element.
     *
     * Usage:
     *   standalone-renderer [<network device>]
     *
     * If no network device is given on the commandline, the program falls back to
     * eth0.
     *
     * To do anything useful, another UPnP server + UPnP controller is necessary
     * to tell it which media file to show.
