This document lists the differenced between camerabin and camerabin2 from
|
|
|
|
|
the API point of view and should be used to help on porting applications
|
|
|
|
|
from camerabin to camerabin2.

|
|
* Setting the location for the captures:
|
|
|
|
|
camerabin requires that the path of the file to save the captures is set before
|
|
|
|
|
each capture. Camerabin2 allows the application to use a multifilesink-like
|
|
|
|
|
approach, the application can set a file with a '%d' marker, this marker
|
|
|
|
|
will be automatically replaced by a number and be autoincremented after each
|
|
|
|
|
capture.

* Capture signals
|
|
|
|
|
The signals were renamed from capture-start/stop to start/stop-capture as
|
|
|
|
|
this is the usual naming on actions.

|
Additionally, stop-capture is now async, the user should check 'idle' property
|
|
|
|
|
to be sure that it can shut camerabin2.

|
* video recording encoder/muxer
|
|
|
|
|
In camerabin, video/audio encoder/muxer are selected by passing GstElements to
|
|
|
|
|
camerabin properties. In camerabin2, a GstEncodingProfile is passed as a
|
|
|
|
|
property and encodebin manages to instantiate the elements for the format.
