Grouping
|
||||
--------
|
||||
|
||||
* a group has at most one loop based element
|
||||
* elements in a group are sorted, src elements first
|
||||
* elements in a group are sorted, src elements first (not mandatory)
|
||||
* a group has one cothread
|
||||
* a group is created immediatly for loop based elements, all other elements
|
||||
are added to a group when a pad connection is made
|
||||
* get-based plugins are put in the same group as a peer loop based element
|
||||
* chain based elements are put in the same group
|
||||
* chain based elements are put in the same group as sink peer elements
|
||||
* entry point in the group is:
|
||||
- leftmost loopbased element
|
||||
- first src element if no loopbased elements exist in the group
|
||||
- loopbased element
|
||||
- first src element if no loopbased element exists in the group
|
||||
|
||||
Result: you end up with a group of connected elements with either:
|
||||
- a loop based plugin as the entry point
|
||||
- a get based plugin as the entry point
|
||||
|
||||
Scheduling the group is a matter of starting the cothread and calling
|
||||
the loop function or doing a _get/_push on a srcpad.

Chaining
|
||||
--------
|
||||
|
||||
* groups that are connected end up in the same chain
|
||||
* a group always belongs to a chain
|
||||
* updating the chain is only needed when two groups are
|
||||
connected with a connection of type E/F. for other
|
||||
connection types, the group itself is updated.
|
||||
* a chain is scheduled by scheduling a random group in the chain.
