A few weeks ago I thought to post to the appropriate gstreamer mailing lists to see if anyone there would be interested in assisting me with this project. Unfortunately it appears that nobody there had any interest in replying to my post.

So it appears that if this is going to be done it will need to be with my own effort and resources.

I have three possible platforms to work with here, my pw4 itself, a Raspberry Pi 0 and my laptop.

As the target platform the pw4 would be ideal if it is possible to do so. Unfortunately the tools required to do so are unavailable as provided by Amazon. Has anyone put together a package to allow building software on the pw4 that can be used by a novice? I have built occasional, simple programs on my linux laptop, so I am not totally without experience.

My Raspberry Pi 0 has the advantage of also being arm based, albeit armv6l as opposed to the armv7l of the pw4. It is also armhf versus armel and running buster versus jessie.

My laptop is x86_64 running mint sylvia, but is certainly a more powerful processor with more memory than either of the other options.

Can anyone point me to the current recommendations for building software for the pw4 in one or more of these?

The source code is available and I have downloaded it for the "good" plugins, which contains the desired wavparse element. Hopefully there is a way to build only that element once the environment is prepared.

Thank you in advance for any guidance.
