This commit is only refactoring, no fetaures added.
Do not store tags in flexible arrays as it doesn't allow us
to use nested flexible arrays. This is going to be needed in the
following commits to map gst tags that are stored into
2 separate tags in xmp (Not that they are alternatives, but
they are complementary).
For example, GST_TAG_ELEVATION is represented in the exif
schema with 2 fields: the absolute altitude and an integer
to indicate if it is above or below sea level.
The previous mappings storage wouldn't allow us to
express it.
Also store a serialization and a deserialization function
for each xmp tag as some of them require some non-trivial
convertion to its string form.
Fixes#613690
Since we no longer use an array of error messages, there is no reason
to clamp the error code, which allows us to simplify the code some more
and also to actually report the correct error code for unknown errors.
2 goals in the refactoring:
- Put the error messages closer to their enum values, so that it's easy
to see which error belongs to which value.
- Make gcc not complain with -Wformat-nonliteral
I initially looked here because I wanted compiles to not fail with
-Wformat-nonliteral but ended up refactoring the code to make it look
nicer.
As I lack a large collection of XMP tagged files, I only did rough
testing of the code. The testsuite passes though.
XMP metadata can be embedded in many media container formats. Implement own
parser and formatter that can be used to convert between an xpacket and a
GstTagList. Add unit tests.
Add set_render_rectangle() vmethod to the interface to better support windowless
toolkits (e.g. qt graphicsview or video on canvas in general). Right now we
always fill the widget to 100%. With the patch we can use a rectangular target
region. Fixes#610249.
API: GstXOverlay::set_render_rectangle()
Add simple videotestsrc ! xvimagesink examples using gtk and qt. This patch also
adds all boilerplate to configure for using c++. The qt based examples are
optional like their gtk counterparts.
Be careful when allocating the amount of bytes specified in the Content-Length
because it can be an insanely huge value. Try to allocate the memory but fail
gracefully with a nice error when the allocation failed.
Explain why the whole bus sync handler mess is needed. Add section about
how to use GstXOverlay in connection with Gtk+ and mention the Gtk+ API
break issue and how to work around it (see #601809).
lang-tables.c is included by lang.c and not really a proper source
file that should be compiled into its own object, so rename it to
lang-tables.dat and put it into EXTRA_DIST instead to ensure it
gets disted.
Increase default drift tolerance to 40ms to avoid glitches with decoders
or formats where there's a lot of timestamp jitter for some reason or
another (in this case: asf/wma), at least until we implement timestamp
smoothing.
g_mapped_file_unref() was introduced in GLib 2.22, but we depend
only on GLib 2.18, so use g_mapped_file_free() when compiling
against older GLib versions until we bump the GLib dependency.
Add some utility functions for language tags and ISO-639
codes. These are useful for both GUIs and elements. The
iso-codes package is used for language name translations
if available.
API: gst_tag_get_language_codes()
API: gst_tag_get_language_name()
API: gst_tag_get_language_code()
API: gst_tag_get_language_code_iso_639_1()
API: gst_tag_get_language_code_iso_639_2B()
API: gst_tag_get_language_code_iso_639_2T()
Our calibration against the pipeline clock is done with the adjusted
ringbuffer time, so take the adjustement into account. Fixes some audio dropouts
when reusing audio sinks after switching clocks and slaving methods in a
pipeline.
When we are calibrating the internal clock against the external clock take into
account the time offset applied to our internal clock because we will subtract
that in the render_function again.
Add a new video event to mark the start or end of a still-frame
sequence, and a parser function to identify and extract info from
such events.
API: gst_video_event_new_still_frame()
API: gst_video_event_parse_still_frame()
Fixes: #601942
Use send() instead of write() so that we can pass the MSG_NOSIGNAL flags to
avoid crashing with SIGPIPE when the remote end is not listening to us anymore.
Fixes#601772
When we start and we need to produce the first sample, go to the next sample
that will be written into the ringbuffer instead of trying to go to sample 0.
We relied on rather small ringbuffer sizes to correctly go to the current
sample, which breaks whith large buffers.
Fixes#600945
Add drift-tolerance property (defaulting to 20ms) to handle resync after clock
drift or timestamp drift instead of relying on the latency-time value for clock
drift and 500ms for timestamp drift.
Remove warning about discont timestamp and simply resync. The warning is in some
cases not correct and is triggered more frequently now that we lower the
tolerance value.
There's not much point in using GST_DEBUG_FUNCPTR with GObject
virtual functions such as get_property, set_propery, finalize and
dispose, since they'll never be used by anyone anyway. Saves a
few bytes and possibly a sixteenth of a polar bear.
I also renamed glib_enum_prefix to glib_gen_prefix as we also use that for the
marshallers. Also rename the rtsp-marshal.list to work with the unified prefix.
gstrtspconnection.c:gst_rtsp_connection_receive() can hang when an error occured
on a socekt. Fix this problem by checking for error on 'other' socket after poll
return.
Fixes#596159
Rhythmbox uses cdda:// URIs of the form cdda://track#device, which
worked before the fix for bug #321532.
Also adds a check for negative track numbers and some unit tests for URI
parsing.
Fixes bug #595454.
Should really have been READABLE and WRITABLE, but those are hard to
add whilst maintaining backwards compatibility. See #343615.
API: GST_MIXER_TRACK_READONLY
API: GST_MIXER_TRACK_WRITEONLY
Check for pulsesink < 0.10.17 because it includes code that is now included in
baseaudiosink. Disable that code in baseaudiosink to be compatible with the
older version.
Take the time of the clock so that the last_time field is set. This is important
for sinks that restart their internal ringbuffer after a caps change and need to
know the last know position.
When going to NULL, we reset the ringbuffer so that it starts beck from 0. We
also make sure that the clock is updated with the elapsed time so that it
alsways increments even when the ringbuffer goes back to 0. When this happened
we need to adjust the sample position for the reset ringbuffer.
Fixes#594136
Add a property to disable rendering of video frames during preroll. This
will only work for videosinks that use the new ::show_frame() vfunc instead
of overriding basesink's preroll and render vfuncs directly.
API: GstVideoSink:show-preroll-frame
The old one did the mistake of not actually advancing the ringbuffer, it just
adjusted the segbase, introducing the whole lenght of the ringbuffer as an
extra delay in the pipeline.
Also make sure that the resync can never go back in time, producing the same
timestamps that has already been produced, as this can cause severe problems
for sinks and other synching mechanisms.
Fixes#594256
