Original commit message from CVS:
* gst/gstpad.c: (gst_pad_is_negotiated),
(gst_pad_get_negotiated_caps):
GST_RPAD_* will only operate on a RealPad (it casts the pointer,
it doesn't actually check the contents), so be sure to hand it
a RealPad else we'll crash.

Deprecate _type_is_fixed, use _value_is_fixed instead, since

2004-07-14 Andy Wingo <wingo@pobox.com>
* gst/gsttag.c: Add a tag merge func for pointers. The header was
there all along, but the function wasn't. (guile-gstreamer's build
system uses the address of the function -- I wasn't actually
trying to use this.)
2004-07-13 Andy Wingo <wingo@pobox.com>
* gst/gstpad.c (gst_pad_try_set_caps): Naive link functions (such
as gst_pad_proxy_pad_link) just link to every other pad when they
are called. In the case where the graph has cycles, this will mean
that a call to try_set_caps will recurse. Allow this recursion
and return OK, while we wait for the first try_set_caps to give a
proper return value.
(gst_pad_link_call_link_functions): Since this function is the
only one to set the NEGOTIATING flag on a pad, if the flag is set
it means that the link functions have indirectly recursed. If this
happens, error out to avoid infinite recursion and an eventual
SEGV.
(gst_real_pad_class_init): Remove a crufty GtkObject comment.
(gst_pad_proxy_getcaps): Intersect the result with the template
caps to ensure that the return value is valid.

* gst/gstdata.c (gst_data_is_writable): s/>=/>/. If there is only

Original commit message from CVS:
* gst/gstpad.c: (gst_pad_check_schedulers),
(gst_pad_can_link_filtered), (gst_pad_link_filtered),
(gst_pad_link_prepare):
check that pads that get linked belong to the same manager. The old
code allowed linking elements before putting them into bins, so it
worked to link them and then put them in different threads, which
lead to weird behaviour.
Since this effectively disallows linking elements before putting
them in a bin, some applications might not work after this and error
out. If these applications are too critical, we might need to revert
that patch. Please test this before the next release...

Original commit message from CVS:
2004-02-24 Andy Wingo <wingo@pobox.com>
* gst/gstelement.c (gst_element_dispose): Protect against multiple
invocations.
* gst/schedulers/gstoptimalscheduler.c
I added a mess of prototypes at the top of the file by way of
documentation. Some of the operations on chains and groups were
re-organized.
(create_group): Added a type argument so if the group is enabled,
the setup_group_scheduler knows what to do.
(group_elements): Added a type argument here, too, to be passed on
to create_group.
(group_element_set_enabled): If an unlinked PLAYING element is
added to a bin, we have to create a new group to hold the element,
and this function will be called before the group is added to the
chain. Thus we have a valid case for group->chain==NULL. Instead
of calling chain_group_set_enabled, just set the flag on the group
(the chain's status will be set when the group is added to it).
(gst_opt_scheduler_state_transition, chain_group_set_enabled):
Setup the group scheduler when the group is enabled, not
specifically when an element goes PAUSED->PLAYING. This means
PLAYING elements can be added, linked, and scheduled into a
PLAYING pipeline, as was intended.
(add_to_group): Don't ref the group twice. I don't know when this
double-ref got in here. Removing it has the potential to cause
segfaults if other parts of the scheduler are buggy. If you find
that the scheduler is segfaulting for you, put in an extra ref
here and see if that hacks over the underlying issue. Of course,
then find out what code is unreffing a group it doesn't own...
(create_group): Make the extra refcount floating, and remove it
after adding the element. This means that...
(unref_group): Destroy when the refcount reaches 0, not 1, like
every other refcounted object in the known universe.
(remove_from_group): When a group becomes empty, set it to be not
active, and remove it from its chain. Don't unref it again,
there's no floating reference any more.
(destroy_group): We have to remove the group from the chain in
remove_from_group (rather than here) to break refcounting cycles
(the chain always has a ref on the group). So assert that
group->chain==NULL.
(ref_group_by_count): Removed, it was commented out anyway.
(merge_chains): Use the remove_from_chain and add_to_chain
primitives to do the reparenting, instead of rolling our own
implementation.
(add_to_chain): The first non-disabled group in the chain's group
list will be the entry point for the chain. Because buffers can
accumulate in loop elements' peer bufpens, we preferentially
schedule loop groups before get groups to avoid unnecessary
execution of get-based groups when the bufpens are already full.
(gst_opt_scheduler_schedule_run_queue): Debug fixes.
(get_group_schedule_function): Ditto.
(loop_group_schedule_function): Ditto.
(gst_opt_scheduler_loop_wrapper): Ditto.
(gst_opt_scheduler_iterate): Ditto.
I understand the opt scheduler now, yippee!

(gst_pad_get_formats_default, gst_pad_get_formats): Better

use these functions? Actually make a custom pad instead of a
normal one.
(gst_pad_try_set_caps): Transpose some checks.
(gst_pad_try_set_caps_nonfixed): Same, and use a macro to check if
the pad is in negotiation.

Fix gst_pad_get_allowed_caps(). It just wasn't doing what

Original commit message from CVS:
* gst/gstpad.c:
Rearrange/rewrite much of the pad negotiation code, since it
resembled pasta. This actually changes the way some
negotiation works, since the previous code was inconsistent
depending on how it was invoked. Add (internal) structure
GstPadLink, which is used to hold some information (more in
the future) about the link between two pads. Fixes a number
of bugs, including random lossage of filter caps when the
initial negotiation is delayed. A few functions are still
unimplemented.
* gst/gstpad.h:
Add GST_PAD_LINK_{SUCESSFUL|FAILED}() macros. Please use
these when testing GstPadLinkReturn values instead of comparing
directly.
Original commit message from CVS:
merge TYPEFIND branch. Major changes:
- totally reworked type(find) system
- bytestream is out of the core again
- typefind element is now part of gstelements
Original commit message from CVS:
s/GstBuffer/GstData/ in the API where you can pass events. Fix the plugins to deal with that. Fixes#113488. Also includes scheduler patches, and probably fixes some queue bugs relating to events and buffers.
Original commit message from CVS:
implement translatable error messages using gerror.
Includes bugfixes for:
- crash when unlinking Ghostpads
- make *_PAD_* macros use glib casts
- make spider typefinding merge buffers correctly
Original commit message from CVS:
GST_DEBUG reorganization
This is a big diff (ca 450k), containing loads of stuff:
- gstinfo.[ch] complete rewrite
- changing of all GST_DEBUG messages to reflect that change
- reorganization of subsystem disabling
- addition of gstconfig.h.in so we can track the disablings
- <gst/gst.h> does not include <unistd.h> and <config.h> anymore
- documentation updated for gstinfo stuff (build the docs yourself to know what changed)
- bugfixes for making of the docs (files from CVS are not deleted anymore
- testsuite for debugging changes in testsuite/debug
expect breakage
Original commit message from CVS:
Fix aliasing problems noticed by gcc-3.3. Suggests that we need to
change gst_pad_{push|pull}() to GstData *. (and probably others)
Original commit message from CVS:
implement proper refcounting of pad's templates and references from real pads to their ghost pads and the other way around - this fixes the segfaults in the player
Original commit message from CVS:
Added a simple function gst_pad_recover_caps_error that a plugin
should call from now on (instead of gst_element_error). This function
will emit a caps_nego_failed signal that the app can catch to resolve
the negotiation failure.
Original commit message from CVS:
general fixes:
- changed newly added locked_state API to work like GStreamer does
- added gst_element_sync_state_with_parent function
- revert: pad linking does not require non-playing state
- updated spider and pipeline parsing to link elements in playing state
- bugfix: pads are now activated when added to a playing element (broke above change)
Original commit message from CVS:
- Use the eventhandler instead of the event function to send events.
- make the scheduler setup the eventhandlers
- intercept flush events on pads links that can potentially queue data
and flush it.
- some more debugging info in spider.
I can think of one case where this flush might fail: unconnected pads where
the scheduler has not set up the eventhandler yet. I'll come up with a
solution for that soon.
Original commit message from CVS:
- implement FLOATING flag on caps/props
- use gstmemchunk for caps/props
- implement remove_entry for props
- various refcounting functions
- fix refcounting on caps/props
- use tracing for caps/props/propsentries
- fix memleak in transform functions
- fix refcounting on elementfactory padtemplates
- add dispose for padtemplates
- shortcut pad negotiation early on
Original commit message from CVS:
Provide intrastructure to not have to pass NULL buffers on errors and
interrupts, this should fix some issues with the optimal scheduler.
Original commit message from CVS:
- Added PAD_NEGOTIATING flag, remove PAD_EOS flag
- Try to avoid negotiation in state change if pad were already negotiating
- Added gstquery.c for completeness (maybe merge common functions with
gstformat.c?)
Original commit message from CVS:
- major API breakage (one of the last, I promise...)
- GST_PAD_QUERY -> GST_QUERY
- GstPadQuery -> GstQuery
- Move query definitions to gstquery.h to allow for future dynamic
query types.
- remove _pad_handles_* in favour of extra format/event functions to
make the same checks.
- fix elements
- Implemented missing query/event/formats functions in gstelement
Original commit message from CVS:
- disable pads when going to PAUSED, we want to make sure no data is
passing when an element is not PLAYING.
- changed the clock sync API, element should now get a ClockID first and
sync on that. This makes it possible to cancel clock requests.
Original commit message from CVS:
- Added caps as a property
- Removed signals in favour of property notification
- Use probes instead of event_received signal
- Small cleanups
Original commit message from CVS:
- some cleanups
- revert a patch that needs more thinking..
- move common code and sanity checks in gstscheduler.c instead of the
real schedulers.
- remove sanity checks from the schedulers
Original commit message from CVS:
- Make the return GList of gst_element_get_pad_list as const
- Pad scheduler refactoring
- Remove gst_pad_set/unset_scheduler as it's not needed
- Reimplement gst_pad_get_scheduler using the parent scheduler
- Remove gst_pad_peek as it cannot work reliably
- Remove the pad bufpen, replace with scheduler private gpointer
- Make queue use the new _get_scheduler implementation
- Remove _pad_unset_scheduler from GstScheduler
- Remove LOOP_SEEK mode from aggregator
- Other fixes for API changes.
Original commit message from CVS:
This changes an important part of the plugin API, gst_pad_try_set_caps() no longer returns a boolean, it now returns a GstPadConnectReturn, which makes much more sense than a boolean. All plugins have also been changed, so don't worry ;)

if you can't write to the registry (ie it is root-owned and you are user) and it
is out of date, just ignore it; plugin state will get written to the user reg
Original commit message from CVS:
- The clock_wait now returns the difference between requested time and
unlock time.
- Misc defines like GST_SECOND in gstclock.h
- remove pre/post in gstelement.c until fixed.

- internal connect function: find out how this pad connects to other
pad internally to the element.
- generic pad_dispatcher.
- removed the last bits of pullregion
- use release_locks on the queue.

Original commit message from CVS:
* implemented threadsafe property set/get system as discussed in
docs/random/wingo/threadsafe-properties
* some cleanups
* this change will cause binary incompatibilities, better rebuild them plugins
now, off to drink :-)
Original commit message from CVS:
Totally rewritten registry handling.
- move the registry save/load code into a gstregistry subclass, this
will make it possible to use other registries (flat file, web based,
RDBMS type, etc..)
- a simple GMarkup xml registry is implemented
- use standard statically linked plugins for core elements.
- GstPlugin has a very well defined set of functions now
A little bytestream hack..
Added more info to -inspect.
Some more debugging info for clocking.
Small cleanups
I use ./gst-register --gst-plugin-path=/opt/src/sourceforge/gst-plugins/gst-libs:/opt/src/sourceforge/gst-plugins/
to register core and gst-plugins now.
Original commit message from CVS:
commit to make gstreamer follow the gtk function/macro naming conventions:

Original commit message from CVS:
* s/gst_element_install_std_props/gst_element_class_install_std_props/ -- it just makes more sense that way
* added jack element, doesn't quite work right yet but i didn't want to lose the work -- it does build, register,
and attempt to run though

* added '%s' to reverse parsing
* added new bin flag to indicate that it is self-iterating, and some lame code in gst-launch to test it out

Original commit message from CVS:
* document gst_caps_debug
* change gst_caps_debug to accept a label argument, assists greatly
in debugging capsnego
* better names from gst_object_name_default
* some more debugging in gstpad.c
* require caps to match padtemplates on both side of a connection
* gstspider uses default naming so that names are globally unique
* moved filesrc offset arg to the top -- show up first in a prop list.
in the future we should have flags on props indicating which ones
it might be interesting for the end-user to change.
* initialize cothreads in the more standard way, and provide some more debugging
Original commit message from CVS:
* a warning fix
* a potential commenting error fix
* more debug output when trying to set caps so I can actually tell from it
what's going on
Original commit message from CVS:
Fixed some warnings
Always recalculate caps intersection in perform_negotiate 'cause they
might have changed. (needs better solution probably)
Original commit message from CVS:
* many fixes related to dynamic pipelines.
* addition of gst_element_disconnect_elements(), as per connect_elements()
* don't have a cow if typefind changes state in its signal handlers
* support of request pad -> request pad in connect_elements()
* some fixes in int2float that will eventually need to be ported to float2int and
adder
the gstelement api is getting bloated, expect a rewrite within the next month.
Original commit message from CVS:
Delay pad negotiation until the element is in READY or higher. this will
gice the element a chance to open its devices before we start calling the
connect functions.
Make sure we use the real pad in the negotiation.
Some other small cleanups.
Original commit message from CVS:
miscellaneous fixes, added gst_pad_unset_sched() api.
although I unref the old pipeline and the cothread context gets freed in dynamic-pipeline.c,
I still get segfaults.
Original commit message from CVS:
* cleaning up duplicated code in gstbin.c
* added some sanity checks in gstpad.c
* added checks for failed connections in gstparse.c
* better docs in gstxml.c
Original commit message from CVS:
Landed the new improved capsnegotiation system.
The main idea is to keep track of the possible data types that can
pass through a connection. plugins can at any time inspect, adjust and
refine these caps. plugins also get notified when something changes to
the types so that they can reconfigure themselves.
Look at the updated plugins and the soon to be finished doc.
Original commit message from CVS:
- Removed deprecated buffer flags.
- removed gst_element_signal_eos, replaced with gst_element_set_eos
to set the object to PAUSED, signal an eos event etc..
- small updates to documentation
- repair some plugins
Original commit message from CVS:
- Added a function to get the currently executing cothread
- Removed some useless includes
- _interrupt now returns a boolean so the behaviour after the interrupt
can be controlled by the scheduler.
- Added a better way to set/get the default scheduler.
- make thread and pipeline get the default scheduler.
Original commit message from CVS:
Tee Fixes.
added cothread_stop (not used)
improved the pad event dispatcher.
added an event_received signal on the pad.
do less state changes in the autoplugger.
small scheduler fix.
Original commit message from CVS:
Better, cleaner state management of the scheduler by adding scheduler state
flags.
typefind has to interrupt instead of yield.
Fix a leak in the queue when it's dropping buffers.
Original commit message from CVS:
This is an attempt at not segfaulting on errors but reporting some
usefull info instead.
- bin changes so errors can propagate.
- changed the _FAST macros to _CAST because that is what they do.
- removed all references to cothreads out of the core, they are
really a scheduler issue, handler with a sched_private gpointer.
- added a live buffer count, for debugging buffer leaks.
- added error checking in gst_scheduler_state_transition this solves the
"out of cothreads" problem.
- GST_ELEMENT_NO_ENTRY == GST_ELEMENT_INFINITE_LOOP
- added 2 private element flasg for use by the scheduler
(_COTHREAD_STOPPING) is now
- added scheduler entry points:
- _yield : to create possible scheduling points.
- _interrupt: to stop execution of an element.
- _error: to signal en error condition to the scheduler.
- improved error messages for pads.
- signal gst_element_error where appropriate.
- added the a new bin to the parent before entering it so one can reference
its children.
- queue memleak fixes on dispose.
- added possible deadlock detection in queue (turned off be default)
- GstBasicScheduler is a real class of its own now, hiding its internal
variables.
- GST_ELEMENT_IS_COTHREAD_STOPPING is gone. either call explicit _yield
operations, or make a sane loop.
- Better state change handling in filesrc. Better error reporting/recovery
too.
- updated core plugins.
- detect non decoupled elements on scheduler boundries and error.
Original commit message from CVS:
cothread cleanup.
- removed some old code.
- ran the thing through indent
- rename cothread_init/free to cothread_context_init/free
- implement cothread_free/destroy to clear the cothread_state slot
- make cothread_init reuse empty slots.
minor cleanups in error reporting (gstpad, gstelement)
code cleanup in gstthread
make unexpected state changes in gstthread less fatal
free the cothread_state in the scheduler.
This one passes all the current cvs testcases including dynamic-pipeline.
Original commit message from CVS:
Some more work on cleanup.
- added two functions in the scheduler _setup and _reset to initialize
the context. In the case of the cothread context we have to map the
cothread stack space onto the threads stack.
- setup/reset the scheduler context in the threads context.
- fix the ghostpad cleanup.
- slightly changed the scheduler code to cleanly remove connections.
Original commit message from CVS:
- Elements can now send events to their parent.
- remove the g_signals from the core for parent<->child communication
- the application can easily get element info by listening for an event
signal from the toplevel bin.
- added gst_element_info()/_error().
- fakesrc and fakesink use the info event instead of g_print.
- GST_TYPE_* causes segfaults with elect fence, rever to G_TYPE_POINTER
until we know what's wrong.
- various leaks fixed wrt element destroy.
- The object that created the event is now stored as GST_EVENT_SRC
Original commit message from CVS:
- added playondemand plugin by Leif Morgan Johnson <lmjohns3@eos.ncsu.edu>
- some fixes to int2float
- aplied a patch from wrobell <wrobell@ite.pl> that is a first attempt at
making automake 1.5 happy (gst now requires automake1.5). It's still not
perfect but it builds.
- Made the schedulers plugable. The default scheduler now lives inside a
plugin.
- Added a new mpeg1/2 parser/demuxer.
- Fixed some compiler warnings in the core libs.
- substantial work to GstThread (hopefully less race conditions). simplified
the code in GstThread a bit. A state change can now also happen in the
thread context.
- reworked the state semantics of a bin. it'll now automatically get the
highest state of its children.
- the autoplugger now nests the threads so that a state change failure of
one thread doesn't make its upstream thread lock.
- GstQueue refuses to go to PLAYING if the sinkpad is not connected. This
way the queue will not wedge in the _get lock.
- GstQueue unlocks its mutexes when going to PAUSED.
- make sure that when all elements in a bin/thread go to PAUSED, the bin
is set to PAUSED too.
- make a parent bin wait for its children to PAUSE before ending the
iteration with FALSE (EOS)
- Some changes to GstPlay to deal with EOS.
- aplied the latest patch from Zeenix to gstrtp.
end result: GstPlay doesn't crash on EOS and the pipeline is now shut down
properly.
Original commit message from CVS:
API docs.
revived _buffer_ref_by_count
fast types for scheduler and bin.
error checking on plugin features;

to quiet the warnings.
2. Fix GstBufferCopyFunc prototype.
3. Re-apply the reverted type!=0 assertion in gst_elementfactory_new.

Patched up a problem with the thread handling when the iteration fails.
Cleaned up the output of -inspect a tiny bit.
Original commit message from CVS:
The first wave of docs updates
Added a little more comments about the API usage in the api docs.
Some fixes for the capsnego testsuite.
Original commit message from CVS:
A rather large patch:
- changed the API for the padtemplates:
- remove the factories (array of pointers) for the padtemplates,
properties and caps. The static array was a nice idea but converting
all the property values to a gpointer was not a good idea.
float properties were not possible, and casting a gint to a pointer
is not very portable. The new API just uses the _padtemplate_new,
_caps_new and _props_new functions to create the templates.
This has the added benefit that the API is now uniform for static
and dynamic templates and that the code can be made cleaner.
- lots of cleanups in the way the capabilities are constructed (va_list)
- lots of updates for all the plugins (new API)
- docs updates (new API)
- removed the videoraw docs.
Original commit message from CVS:
Lots of updates to the plugins for caps negotiation.
Added YUY2 output to the win32 dlls.
Added a colorspace converter in gstplay
Original commit message from CVS:
Added a plain X videosink, the videosink uses capsnego.
adjusted the v4lsrc so that it uses capsnego on the src pad
Small fixed to capsnego and the properties/caps.
Original commit message from CVS:
More work on capsnego proxying. It should be OK now.
Added another testcase enum that shows various capsnego algorithms.
Warn about pads that try to set a capability incompatible with their
padtemplate.
Implemented refcounting and copy_on_write for caps/props.
Original commit message from CVS:
More work on capsnego, mostly proxying
Added another testsuite for capsnego
Added caps to vorbisdec, mp3parse, mp1videoparse
Redid the queue proxy handling a bit.
Original commit message from CVS:
Reworked the capsnegotiation function
audiosink now uses capsnego to set its parameters
mpg123/ac3dec use capsnego instead of metadata
Added the beginnings of a testsuite for capsnego.
Original commit message from CVS:
More doc updates
Manual additions: xml/load save of custom XML, debugging, request pads
added a signal to the example plugin
fixed a bug in mp3parse (ifdef 1)
Original commit message from CVS:
Fix a couple of instances of childs, which should be xmlChildrenNode. We
need to be careful to stop these creeping back in... ;-)
Original commit message from CVS:
Reworked getregion/pullregion stuff. Region is now specified by a type
(OFFSET_LEN, TIME_LEN, etc.) and two guint64's. They are offset and len,
where offset can be used for the time field, and len would be zero or
the time unit (say, 33ms for video).
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:
A very small change to make eos somewhat work. no inner bins are checked.
When an element fires EOS, the chain with that element is removed from
the scheduler (marked inactive). If all chains are inactive, the bin
fires EOS.
Original commit message from CVS:
Major cleanup of the latest ghostpad changes. Fixed everything that
broke, correctly. Someone will want to go update the API doc templates.
Original commit message from CVS:
First pass at updating to new ghostpad system. The objects are in place,
I now need to go and get all the Bin end of things worked out. Testing
should be fairly easy, at least for verification.
Everything I've tried so far works with no changes, with is amazing.
That's just cool. Once again we rewrite an entire subsystem, and nothing
else notices anything but the new features ;-)
Original commit message from CVS:
Added mthodes to request an element to create pads: gst_element_request_pad*
This can be used to construct a tee and a muxer/mixer/aggregator element.
Moved the tee element to elements/ because it can now be handled with the
new pad request features.
The padfactory also has some changes: a pad can now be of presence REQUEST,
which means that the pad can be requested from this plugin (doh).
Original commit message from CVS:
Rearranged cothreads sources a bit, added some API docs.
Added some functions needed for gstreamer-inspect.
Added num_sources to fakesink.
Original commit message from CVS:
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:
Started work on better ghostpad management, and started to build the low-
level EOS mechanism.
Also removed a couple of printouts that aren't needed any more.
Original commit message from CVS:
Added multiple caps to the pads
Extended the padfactory for the multiple caps
GstCaps now have a name so that future manipulations on them can be done by name
Updated the plugins for the new caps list
Original commit message from CVS:
Fixed a bug in gstbin.c the manager was not detected.
Some other testcases
bin, thread, pipeline use the elementfactory on gst_*_new
Original commit message from CVS:
The typefind function now returns a GstCaps structure instead of a gboolean.
modified some plugins to this new behaviour
Fixed autoplugging for the mpg123 case. When an element is selected in
autoplugging and the caps do not match, another element is selected until the
caps match. only examples/autoplug works because gstmediaplay uses a threaded
setup that does not seem to work with the current scheduling.
Original commit message from CVS:
some editor changes= loading of save pipelines (not working)
added include in gstdebug.h for getpid
property loading implemented
GstXML can now be queried for the toplevel elements.
Original commit message from CVS:
WARNING: Don't grab this updated unless you're really, REALLY sure.
WARNING: Wait for the next one.
Whole lotta changes here, including a few random bits:
examples/*/Makefile: updated to use `libtool gcc`, not just `gcc`
gst/
gstbuffer.h: updated to new flag style
gst.c, gstdebug.h: added new debugging for function ptrs
gstpipeline.c: set type of parent_class to the class, not the object
gstthread.c: ditto
plugins/
cdparanoia/cdparanoia.c: added an argument type, updated some defaults
cobin/spindentity.c: updated to new do/while loopfunction style
mp3encode/lame/gstlame.c: argument types, whole lotta lame options
tests/: various changes
Now, for the big changes: Once again, the scheduling system has changed.
And once again, it broke a whole bunch of things. The gist of the change
is that there is now a function pointer for gst_pad_push and gst_pad_pull,
instead of a hard-wired function. Well, currently they are functions, but
that's for debugging purposes only, they just call the function pointer
after spewing lots of DEBUG().
This changed the GstPad structure a bit, and the GstPad API as well.
Where elements used to provide chain() and pull() functions, they provide
chain() and get() functions. gst_pad_set_pull[region]_function has been
changed to get_pad_set_get[region]_function. This means all the elements
out there that used to have pull functions need to be updated. The calls
to that function have been changed in the normal elements, but the names
of the functions passed is still _pull[region](), which is an aesthetic
issue more than anything.
As for what doesn't work yet, just about anything dealing with Connections
is hosed, meaning threaded stuff won't work. This will be fixed about 12
hours from now, after I've slept, etc. The simplefake.c test works in
both cothreaded and chained cases, but not much else will work due to the
Connection problem. Needless to say, don't grab this unless you *need*
these features *now*, else wait to update this stuff until tomorrow.
I'm going to sleep now.
Original commit message from CVS:
Header cleanup: try to include as little as possible; this will probably
speed up compilation a bit.
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.
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:
More Caps changes, this change introduces the padfactory. the GstPadFactory
will be used to describe the pads that an element will contain during
its lifetime.
mpg123 and mp3parse serve as an example.
More XML changes to incorporate the padfactories.
Original commit message from CVS:
Implemented the hybrid scheduling system for sources and connections
outside the current Bin. Is a bit hackish in one place, but I'll work out
a way to make that cleaner soon. queue.c in tests now works nicely in all
cases. More to come later.
Original commit message from CVS:
First attempt at rebuilding the type/plugin system
- make sure caps/props are saved in the registry
autoplugging is completely broken.
removed the typefactories and typeids from all the pads in the plugins
XML load/save is ok (be sure to rerun gstreamer-register)
Original commit message from CVS:
Another big set of changes. Connections are now also pullfunc based.
gstqueue has been updated, I don't know of any other connections offhand.
There are still a few things that need doing, specifically the concept
of a source or connection with connections to multiple thread contexts is
not dealt with. This may force us to move the threadstate from the
element to the pad, maybe keeping the element's copy for simple cases.
Then the Bin would create a structure to pass to the cothreaded _wrappers
of any such elements, which would detail the pads that are to be dealt with
by this particular cothread context.
That will speed things up to, since we don't have to look through the list
of all pads for every Src or Connection element for every iteration, we can
simply step through the list provided by the plan. Special case might even
have a single pad pointer sitting there to trump the list, if there's only
one (the common case anyway).
Task 23098 is tracking these changes. The main task 22588 depends on that
subtask, as well as 22240, which is a consistency check on PAD_DISABLED.
Original commit message from CVS:
Changed the way things are scheduled, especially sources. A Src used to
have a push() function, and optionally a pushregion() to deal with async
reads, etc. That whole thing has gone away, in favor of providing a
pull() function for the output (Src) pad instead, ala chain functions.
This makes constructing cothreaded schedules out of non-loop elements
somewhat easier. Basically there was always a question as to which pad
was being dealt with. In the pullregion case, cothread-specific data was
used to try to pass the region struct to the right place, which is a slow
hack. And in general, the push function severely limited the kind of
tricks that could be played when there's more than one output pad, such as
a multi-out file reader with async capabilities on each pad independently.
This changes the way cothread scheduling occurs. Instead of the hack to
deal with Src's by calling their push() function (or optionally the
pushregion(), in certain cases), we now are working towards a general
mechanism where pads are the only thing that are dealt with directly.
An optimization was made in the process of doing this: the loopfunction
actually run as the outer [stack] frame of the cothread is now set more
intelligently in create_plan() based on what kind of element it is. We
now have:
loopfunc_wrapper: used for loop-based elements, it simply calls the
loopfunc in a loop, paying attention to COTHREAD_STOPPING (see
below). It currently does other, soon to be depracated, stuff.
pullsrc_wrapper: wraps a Src that's not loop-based (since your options
are now loop- or pull-based)
There will be a couple more to deal with other cases, such as Connections
and chain-based elements. The general idea is that it's a lot more
efficient to make the decisions once in create_plan than to keep doing
this huge if/else chain in the wrapper. Just choose the right wrapper up
front. It'll be most apparent performance-wise in the case of whichever
element context is switched to first for each iteration, since the whole
wrapper setup is done for every iteration.
The tricky part is that there is now a bit of overloading of the function
pointers in a pad. The current meanings (possibly to change a bit more
soon) are:
chainfunc: as always, chainfunc pointer is mirrored between peer pads
(this may change, and the chain func may end up in pushfunc)
pushfunc: SrcPad: gst_pad_pushfunc_proxy, cothread_switch to peer
SinkPad: none (may take over chainfunc, see below) pullfunc:
SrcPad: Src or Connection's function to construct buffers
SinkPad: gst_pad_pullfunc_proxy, cothread_switch to peer
There are a number of issues remaining with the scheduling, not the least
of which is the fact that Connections are still dealt with the old way,
with _push() functions and such. I'm trying to figure out a way to unify
the system so it makes sense. Following the scheduling system is hard
enough, trying to change it is murder.
Another useful scheduling addition, mentioned above, is COTHREAD_STOPPING.
It's an element flag that's used to signal whatever code is running in
cothread context that it should be finishing up and exiting soon. An
example of this is in plugins/cobin/spindentity.c. All the loops should
now be composed of do/while loops, rather than while(1) loops:
do {
buf = gst_pad_pull(spindentity->sinkpad);
gst_pad_push(spindentity->srcpad,buf);
} while (!GST_ELEMENT_IS_COTHREAD_STOPPING(element));
The reason for this is that COTHREAD_STOPPING may be set before the above
loop ever gets started. It wouldn't do for the body of the loop to never
once get called, that would simply stall the pipeline. Note that only the
core library code is ever responsible for setting and unsetting this flag.
All elements have to do is respond to it by cleanly exiting the loop and
the function holding it.
This is needed primarily to allow iterations to occur properly.
Basically, there's a single entry point in the cothread scheduling loop,
gst_bin_iterate_func() simply switches to this cothread. If the element
in this context is allowed to loop infinitely, nothing would even switch
back to the context from which the iterate() was originally called. This
is a bit of a problem. The solution is for there to be an implicit switch
back to the originating context. Now, even I'm not sure exactly how this
works, but if the cothread that's switched to actually returns, execution
returns back to the calling context, i.e. iterate_func().
COTHREAD_STOPPING is therefore set just before switching into this
(currently randomly chosen) context, on the assumption that it will return
promptly after finishing its duties. The burden of clearing the flag
falls to the various wrapper functions provided by the Bin code, thus
element writers don't have to worry about doing that at all (and simply
shouldn't).
Related changes:
All the sources in elements/ have been changed to reflect the new system.
FIXMEs:
1) gstpipeline.c calls gst_src_push at some point, dunno why, it's
commented out now.
2) any other sources, including vcdsrc, dvdsrc, and v4lsrc will break
badly and need to be modified to work as pull-based sources.
Original commit message from CVS:
Added multiple types to the pads.
Added first preview of the capabilities system.
Autoplugging is seriously broken with these (and other) changes.
Original commit message from CVS:
Added seeking to the avi decoder by implementing pull_region.
Fixes to the asyncdisksrc.
Added thread specific data to the cothreads.
Original commit message from CVS:
Code cleanup, make it adhere to the Gnome/Gtk+ code formatting, which is
quite clean and more readable.
Renamed parseavi to avidecoder
Implemented seeking/time display/pause/play/stop/clean exit to gstmediaplay
Added an element flag to indicate that it cannot deal with noncontigous
buffers. If such an element is found in the pipeline, seeking is disabled
for the complete stream (avidecoder cannot deal with seeking until we convert
it to a loop based element with pull_region to fetch the indeces etc...)
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:
Loading and saving of XML pipeline descriptions.
GladeXML like operation implemented (you can retrieve parts of a pipeline)
Original commit message from CVS:
The cothreads were not initialized in its thread context resulting in
severe stack corruption. This was very hard to track down.
We should be able now to modify some plugins to a loop based setup so that
we can get rid of the mp3parse and mp1videoparse elements.
Modified the GList to a GSList in the queue.
Original commit message from CVS:
A first attempt to fix the queues in a cothreaded pipeline.
Some fixes to the thread handling.
Fix a bug in gstreamer-config : gthread was not included.
gst_bin_create_plan() is now done in the READY state.
a bin with only another bin in it will now work with gst_bin_iterate.
Added some examples for the queues.
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:
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.
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:
This is the audio/video sync release.
Changed the mpegvideoparser to parse complete pictures. Added the PTS
timestamps to the pictures.
Added PTS timestamps to the MPEG audio frames.
Made the clock a littlebit better.
Gstplay now uses two more threads one for video, one for audio playback.
Added the first QoS callbacks for the pads.
hopefully fix an mmx compilation problem.
Original commit message from CVS:
Switched Cr and Cb in YUV2RGB
fixed the avi parser (gstriff had wrong size)
the system_encoder can now do video only system streams
sanitized the colorspace and scaler api.
added fast self modifying asm scaler.
worked on the typefind stuff.
added a cool media player (gstplay) it uses the typefinder to playback
avi, mpeg1 (system and video) streams. It is also a testbed and a real app.
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:
Added jpeg decoder. the avi decoder now configures the jpeg codec if
an MJPG encoded avi is found. Fixed riff parsing. readded rgb_draw
functions to the videosink. jpeglib is used to decode the jpeg image.
Original commit message from CVS:
This is a rather large patch. Switched on -Wall compiler flag and fixed
the warnings.
Made the Video for Linux more like it should be.
Original commit message from CVS:
Added a pull function in the gstpad. Modified the videosink to implement
the pull. This function allows a source element to request a buffer
from the destination. This is much more efficient because the
videosink can then pass a buffer with SHM to the element, which does
not require an aditional memcpy.
removed scaling from the videosink. I need something better.
