# ipcpipelinesrc

Communicates with an ipcpipelinesink element in another process via a socket.

The ipcpipelinesrc element allows 2-way communication with an ipcpipelinesink element on another process/pipeline. It is meant to run inside an interslavepipeline and when paired with an ipcpipelinesink, it will slave its whole parent pipeline to the "master" one, which contains the ipcpipelinesink.

For more details about this mechanism and its uses, see the documentation of the ipcpipelinesink element.
