plugin contents.
- changed the plugin API, everyhting is now added with
gst_plugin_add_feature

in at plugin load.
- mime types like "video/raw image/raw" are gone for now.
- lots of plugin updates (style and API changes)
- tested with an without registry.

eaaaabf3aa to element classes without using an elementfactory.
Original commit message from CVS:
Aplied the patch from Andy Wingo <apwingo@eos.ncsu.edu> add padtemplates
to element classes without using an elementfactory.
The gst_element_add_padtemplate_to_class method was renamed to
gst_element_class_add_padtemplate to better match glib/gtk conventions.

51cbf22624 This is a megapatch with the following changes:
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.

Mega update of INFO, DEBUG, and ERROR subsystems, renamed with GST_ prefix.
GST_DEBUG now takes a category parameter, which is the same as GST_INFO
system.  They are now called GST_CAT_*.  All the GST_DEBUGs are set to 0
for now, we need to go and fix all these eventually.

Original commit message from CVS:
Cleanup in gsttypes.c:
removed the crazy GList of GHashTables, since the autoplugger will
use the GstCaps and elementfactories instead of the type system.
We don't maintain a list anymore of the elements for the specific
removed unused code in XML loading/saving.

Cleanup in gstelementfactory:
removed the register/unregister methods, register is now implicit when
gst_elementfactory_new is called. _unregister is now _destroy.
Removed logic to register/unregister the types in gsttypes.
added methods to query if the factory can src/sink a GstCaps
Make sure the elementfactory is set in the element_class when a new
element is registered with gst_elementfactory_new.

gst.c: properly register the basic bins
gst_pipeline: use new gstautoplug (next checkin)
gstprops: fixed an error in compatibility check
registry test program changes
plugins: misc changes for the new caps system.

changed the .c files to use #include "..."
Fix for the 'plugins are loaded twice' bug.
Fix 22186: GstObject flags are now used everywhere. Added *_FLAG_LAST so
elements do not use the same flags. Added some padding in the flag enum
for future expansion.

196c67d7ff Changed the GstPadFactory and added the GstPadTemplate.
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.

More Caps changes, this change introduces the padfactory. the GstPadFactory
will be used to describe the pads that an element will contain during

9bae9d4b91 More Docs updates.
Original commit message from CVS:
More Docs updates.
Added plugin documentation. I fear we need a gstdoc implementation
that loads plugins and does introspection on them. I think we should
automatically create the docs for the pads and mime types the plugins
provide. Does anyone have enough perl knowledge to add these features? I
allready changed the C code to output the pad definitions but my perl
knowledge is too limited, for now, to implement the rest of the needed
functionality...

Original commit message from CVS:
Fixed a bug in the typeloading.
Fixes to various elements so that correct types are returned.
Fixed flag collision with GtkObject.
Elements can now suggest a thread. not sure if this is the right way to
handle automatic thread creation.
Autoplugging now works with multiple sinks and thread setup. No threads
are created for intermediate elements yet, so MPEG may still be choppy.

Original commit message from CVS:
Due to popular demand :-), I added a vorbis decoder.
The encoder is not yet functional.
Small cosmetic changes to gstcpu.c

Beware:
You *need* to install libvorbis.a from the main vorbis CVS.
you *have* to change the line in libtool to
deplibs_check_method="pass_all"
because else the plugin shared library refuses to link against the
static libvorbis.a library. This is a hack. I have no intention in
including libvorbis into the gstreamer CVS tree and making it
libtool compatible.

7ccc2cf90b Externalized the plugin information in /etc/gstreamer/reg.xml
Original commit message from CVS:
Externalized the plugin information in /etc/gstreamer/reg.xml
- no need to do a plugin_load_all()
- plugins are loaded when needed
- typedetect functions are loaded when needed (still buggy)
- no need to check for the existance of the plugin in the codecs
- added gstreamer-register to create the reg.xml file
- renamed launch to gstreamer-launch
- plugins need to register the typefactory they provide
modified the plugins to meet the new design
modified the plugins to correctly set their pad types
autoplugging can be done without loading the plugins now

fa4a4319f0 A first (rude) attempt at autoplug.
Original commit message from CVS:
A first (rude) attempt at autoplug.
Autoplugging selects appropriate codecs to connect src to sink, adds
them to the pipeline and connect pads.
Autoplugging will run the typedetect plugin if the src pad has no MIME
type.
No autoplugging is done on the src and sink pads, it's hardcoded:
connect 'src to sink'.
No attempt at creating threads.
No attempt at dynamically autoplugging not yet existing pads.
Changes to (some) plugins to properly set their MIME types.
