Original commit message from CVS:
This is a megapatch with the following changes:
- moved the gchar *name to GstObject, removed the ones in GstElement and
GstPad.
- moved the parent handling completely into GstObject. This cause *all* of
the plugins to fail (except those that used gst_pad_get_parent)
- rearanged the XML save handling.
- GstObject now has a class function save/restore_thyself.
- GstObject has a generic method gst_object_save_thyself, this makes it
possible to fire a signal wehever a new object is loaded. This is needed
so we can add XML save hooks.
- GstXML API has changed slightly. You now have to create a GstXML object
first before you can actually load something. This makes it possible to
attach a signal to GstXML whenever an object is loaded. I'm not sure we
will keep this interface.
- GstObject can now print the path_string without knowing about the GstPad and
GstElement types.
- Added gst_bin_get_by_name_recurse_up to lookup an element in the current
element hierarchy.
- added XML namespaces to the saved pipelines the namespace is:
http://gstreamer.net/gst-core/1.0/
namespaces are needed to distinguish user generated XML from the core XML.
Note that the plugins still contain a macro GST_OBJECT_PARENT that will be
replaced with gst_pad_get_parent shortly.
Original commit message from CVS:
Docs updates
Added XML load from memory functionality
Undid the videosink patch, something else is wrong now on my machine:
no MMX acceleration :-(
Original commit message from CVS:
Massive build fixup. Will send message to -devel list later with details
on the changes and what they mean for Makefile.am writers. Check
docs/random/omega/build/TODO for a list of things that I had to make sure
of.
NOTE: this requires a complete rebuild of all plugins, since I also
changed the STATE enum to a bitfield instead of sequential numbers.
Original commit message from CVS:
Updated the manual and the docs.
Removed the esdsink in gst/elements/ we have a real one not in the
plugins dir.
Added more APIs to query the plugins, types and caps. more fields now
have a getter and a setter. This is needed to make gstreamer wrapper
fiendly.
Added gst_element_disconnect beacuse we also have a gst_element_connect
Original commit message from CVS:
Added checking for all the tools used to make documentation.
If documentation cannot be generated, whatever is available will still be
installed.
videosink/imagetest is now a check_PROGRAM
Original commit message from CVS:
Fix a couple of files not being put into distributions.
make dist now appears to create a fully functional distribution.
make rpm should now produce an rpm. Whether that rpm is any good is
another matter...
Original commit message from CVS:
Docs updates: remove sink, src, filter, connection
added gstinfo to docs.
Updated some core files for the docs
gsttypefind did not include gst_private
Added CFlags to Makefile.am in gst/elements
Original commit message from CVS:
Changed the GstPadFactory and added the GstPadTemplate.
The GstPadFactory is an easy way to define a pad with capabilities.
The GstPadFactory is converted into a GstPadTemplate. The template is
used to create new pads and to expose the possible pads used in an
element to the plugin system.
updated mp3parse, mpg123, cdparanoia to the new API.
Rerun gstreamer-register because the XML definition has changed.
Original commit message from CVS:
Docs updates.
Added LICENSE info to headers/code where missing in gst directory
Added a bonobo wrapper for the media player (it shows up in gshell but
locks up when activating the component, anyone?)
Fixed some XML save/load problems with arguments.
Original commit message from CVS:
Added gst_pipeline_add_sink/src to allow multiple sink cases and
more complex autoplugging. Update docs too.
Simplified the pipeline autoplugging code.
Changed the cothread case: One iteration is now a push from the src
element. The disk source does not change its state anymore on eof.
Better type setting for the ac3 parser/decoder and mpeg2parse.
Original commit message from CVS:
Added a quick hack to allow loop based elements to finish intead of
looping till infinity.
Added compile time i386 or plain C getbits implementation selection.
The vorbis decoder now is our first loop based element!
Original commit message from CVS:
Megapatch, changes which states are available, how they're used, and how
they're set. Also modifies the scheduling system, breaking pulled
buffers. Check mail archives for more details.
Original commit message from CVS:
Fixed the mpeg2 encoder. Added MMX optimisations for motion estimation.
Added another mpeg1 encoder.
Added Two filters: smooth and median (a median cut filter)
Made the queue pull buffers.
Original commit message from CVS:
Make GDK pixbuf optional, by compiling videosink only if it is present.
Make documentation generated successfully even if libghttp isn't present
(by skipping the ghttpsrc stuff).
Original commit message from CVS:
Documentation updates. All standard library objects and standard
elements are documented. Modified some of the elements to more
accuratly report about their arguments so the documentation builds
more reasonable output.
Added aviencoder and jpegencoder elements (not working yet)
Original commit message from CVS:
Try to compile a little mmx program, set the default value of HAVE_LIBMMX.
some typos fixed. Changed include path for volume.c. RTjpeg uses mmx.h
Original commit message from CVS:
Re- set up the gtk-doc system. I'd managed to mutilate it a while back,
but now it's fixed. I'll put a copy of the HTML output somewhere on the
website tonight.
In order to actually generate the docs, you'll have to install all the
DocBook tools, as well as gtk-doc from GNOME cvs. (see
http://developer.gnome.org/arch/doc/tools.html)
Notes (I'll codify these some day):
- Don't believe the Gnome page, always edit the SOURCES when documenting a
given function, never the tmpl file.
- I'll be re-arranging things a lot, but gtk-doc is smart enough to merge
any changes to the tmpl file. However, gtk-doc's merge and CVS's diff are
two entirely separate animals. We should probably have a virtual mutex on
the entire docs/gst/ directory, over and above what CVS does.
- I'm going to try to end up with a book set (docbook terms), where
docs/gst/ is only one book. There'd be another called docs/manual/, and
another docs/plugins/, etc. If you have any comments as to how these
should be done, gstreamer-devel is the place.
