Original commit message from CVS:
Some final fixes for the v4lsrc elements.
* remove software sync thread (use GST_ELEMENT_THREAD_SUGGESTED instead)
* make all src elements threadsafe
* fix num_buffer argument setting in v4l2src (VIDIOC_S_PARM)
* re-add bufsize (RO) for v4lmjpegsrc
* fix the A/V sync calculation in all elements (spvf=GST_SECOND/fps, not GST_SECOND*fps)
* probably some more crap....
With all this, it actually works quite well. The TODO files describes the
next steps in order to make a full-featured video recorder based on these
elements and GStreamer (bottom). Making a simple recorder should be fairly
easy now, btw.
Original commit message from CVS:
This implements filtered-caps negotiation for all the v4l*src elements, and removes the accompanying properties since they're no longer needed
Original commit message from CVS:
another batch of connect->link fixes
please let me know about issues
and please refrain of making them yourself, so that I don't spend double
the time resolving conflicts
Original commit message from CVS:
v4l plugins:
* add open/close signals
v4l2 plugins:
* add open/close signals
* move source format enumeration from v4l2element to v4l2src
* adapt to the final v4l2 API in kernel 2.5 (patches for 2.4 on http://bytesex.org/patches)
* small tweaks
Original commit message from CVS:
This patch fixes some issues caused by design issues in video4linux, adds
some nicety to video4linux2 plugins and does some more evil stuff:
* video4linux doesn't tell us which formats are supported by a card, so
the only way to know this is by simply trying it out. This patch adds that.
* v4lmjpegsink didnt have a bufferpool yet - is integrated now.
* all copy() bufferpool functions have been removed since they're not needed.
* v4lmjpegsink doesnt have a free() function, because hen playing the frames,
all this is already handled. When the frame is not played, nothing has to
be done. In total, the function is not needed.
* adds a get_caps() function to v4l2src
* some minor crap
Original commit message from CVS:
this adds video4linux2 source and element plugins. The division in v4l2* plugins is the same as for v4l1 - i.e. an element, a src and a sink, but there won't be separate encoding plugins (like v4lmjpegsrc) - all functionality is (thanks to video4linux2) integrated in one plugin: v4l2src. v4l2sink is still to be done, that'll come later.
