upgrades to the pixbuf loader:
- use /proc/self/fd/ to get our own handles to the given files (thanks for the hint David)
- use seeking when we lag too far behind
- try to seek 2 minutes into movies to get the static picture
Original commit message from CVS:
update GdkPixbuf loader. Fixes:
- has a begin_load implementation
- makes sure it only works when threads are enabled (this fixes segfaults with gtk 2.3)
There are still some kinks though, feel free to hack on it :)
Original commit message from CVS:
add initial version of gdkpixbuf loader for gtk that is capable of loading AVI and mpeg videos as GdkPixbufAnimation. I'm not sure if such a thing would be useful or too much trouble, so I'll throw it at enough testers to figure it out ;) We might want to disable it by defualt though in the future. (Currently there is not even a configure switch implemented to disable it.)
This includes a fix to not use GError in gstgdkpixbuf's typefind function and to only return GST_TYPE_FIND_MINIMUM when doing typefinding via gdk as this breaks quite a bit with the GStreamer loader installed.
