- first sets to PLAYING, then (re-)triggers capsnego - that breaks

Capturing:

|
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
|
* sound is the master clock
|
|
|
|
|
* it's probably a good idea to create an audiosource element:
|
|
|
|
|
- autodetect alsa/oss
|
|
|
|
|
- first try alsa, then oss... they work the same internally
|
|
|
|
|
* same for videosource:
|
|
|
|
|
- autodetect v4l/v4l2 + mjpeg capabilities
|
|
|
|
|
- for this, just open device using v4l2element. On success:
|
|
|
|
|
+ use v4l2
|
|
|
|
|
- on failure:
|
|
|
|
|
+ use v4lelement and query for MJPEG capabilities
|
|
|
|
|
+ if that's available, combine caps of v4lmjpegsrc and v4lsrc
|
|
|
|
|
* both sources run in their own GstThread with a high priority
|
|
|
|
|
* an encoder element takes care of encoding + muxing. A toplevel element
|
|
|
|
|
(reverse of spider) is probably a good idea here. How? Don't know...
|
|
|
|
|
* format negotiation via filtered caps
|
|
|
|
|
* statistics via listening to the frame_{lost,inserted,deleted,captures}
