[Optional] To use GStreamer filters:

sudo apt-get install libgstreamer1.0-0 gstreamer1.0-plugins-base gstreamer1.0-plugins-good gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly gstreamer1.0-libav gstreamer1.0-doc gstreamer1.0-tools gstreamer1.0-x gstreamer1.0-alsa gstreamer1.0-gl gstreamer1.0-gtk3 gstreamer1.0-qt5 gstreamer1.0-pulseaudio

[Optional] To develop custom filters:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install --yes kurento-media-server-dev

If you get the error: Unable to locate package kurento-media-server-dev try:

1. Paste this link (https://minhaskamal.github.io/DownGit/#/home?url=https://github.com/Kurento/kurento-media-server/tree/master/scaffold) to your browser
2. Extract the downloaded folder to a location of choice
3. cd into that folder then test using:

sh kurento-module-scaffold.sh TestKMSFilter ../custom_kurento_module opencv_filter

This SDK is not yet 'prod-ready' and was inspired by this abandoned project
