+ <sect1 id="gstreamer-properties-usage">
+ <title>Usage</title>
+ <para>The GStreamer properties applet offers four drop down
+ menus spread over two tabs. There are two drop-menues for
+ audio and two for video. These choices set the default for
+ most MATE applications for output and input of Sound and
+ Video.</para>
+
+ <sect2 id="gstreamer-properties-concepts">
+ <title>Understanding the menu options</title>
+
+ <para>Looking at the screen for setting audio options you
+ notice that the two sections are called Default Sink and
+ Default Source. These are terms used in the GStreamer
+ framework that MATE uses to describe where data is sent and
+ where it comes from. The Default sink is in other words where
+ MATE apps should output their sound, while Default source is
+ where the sound comes from.</para>
+
+ <para>The reason you might want to alter these settings is
+ because under Unix there are many different audio systems and
+ sound server which you might want to output to. For instance
+ on Linux popular alternatives are the PulseAudio sound server
+ or ALSA.</para>
+
+ <para>If you wish that your MATE applcations output their
+ sound to the PulseAudio sound server you set the Default Sink
+ to use PulseAudio. And if you wish that your MATE
+ applications which has sound recording capabilities use the
+ ALSA sound system, choose ALSA as the Default Source.</para>
+
+ <note><para>As mentioned elsewhere in this user guide. These setting
+ are meant for as a tool for advanced users who have
+ specialized need. As an ordinary user, you should not need to
+ set these as the vendor of your distribution should have set
+ them to sensible defaults for you.
