Original commit message from CVS:
merge TYPEFIND branch. Major changes:
- totally reworked type(find) system
- all typefind functions are in gst/typefind now
- more typefind functions then before
- some plugins might fail to compile now because I don't have them installed and they
a) require bytestream or
b) haven't had their typefind fixed.
Please fix those plugins and put the typefind functions into gst/typefind if they don't have dependencies
Original commit message from CVS:
New typefind system:
* bytestream is now part of the core
* all plugins have been modified to use this new typefind system
* asf typefinding added
* mpeg video stream typefiding removed because it's broken
* duplicate typefind entries removed
* extra id3 typefinding added, because we've seen 4 types of files
(riff/wav, flac, vorbis, mp3) with id3 headers and each of these needs
to work. Instead, I've added an id3 element and let it redo typefiding
after the id3 header. this needs a hack because spider only typefinds
once. We can remove this hack once spider supports multiple typefinds.
* with all this, mp3 typefinding is semi-rewritten
* id3 typefinding in flac/vorbis is removed, it's no longer needed
* fixed spider and gst-typefind to use this, too.
* Other general cleanups
Original commit message from CVS:
Adding needed license information. The patch was reviewed and approved by
Christian Shaller. Ronald Bultje and Benjamin also responded with
comments.
Original commit message from CVS:
Don't attempt to negotiate format if our srcpad isn't linked. Simply
succeed and continue. This is needed for pure indexer applications.
Original commit message from CVS:
* actually recurse into sndfile if we are able
* big ladspa cleanups, mainly to comply with the buffer-frames caps property, but also general
cleanups
- the samplerate prop is gone, if you want to set it explicitly (as in for get-based plugins)
you need to use a filtered connection, just like with buffer-frames
* big float2int and int2float changes for buffer-frames compatibility - I think it's quite a bit
simpler
* make the ossclock general, add it to gstaudio, and use it in sndfile as well
i need to update mimetypes, but that's coming soon. there are some other plugins that don't
support buffer-frames, i guess i need to get around to fixing them as well.
Original commit message from CVS:
New mimetypes gone into effect today - this commit changes all old mimetypes over to the new mimetypes spec as described in the previous commit's document. Note: some plugins will break, some pipelines will break, expect HEAD to be broken or at least not 100% working for a few days, but don't forget to report bugs
Original commit message from CVS:
compatibility fix for new GST_DEBUG stuff.
Includes fixes for missing includes for config.h and unistd.h
I only ensured for plugins I can build that they work, so if some of them are still broken, you gotta fix them yourselves unfortunately.
Original commit message from CVS:
Plugins cleanup:
* stereo2mono, mono2stereo, int2float, float2int: replaced by audioconvert.
* stereosplit replaced by oneton.
* vumeter replaced by level (and was broken anyway).
* avifile replaced by ffmpeg.
* mjpegtools duplicates functionality of jpeg. jpeg now works with jpeg-mmx,
too, which makes mjpegtools unneeded.
* allow for jpegmmx instead of jpeg.
* openquicktime replaced by qtdemux and ffmpeg. Broken anyway.
* XMMS is broken and will never be fixed.
* vga is broken and will not be fixed anywhere soon.
* videosink has never worked. If it works, add it back to replace xvideosink.
Original commit message from CVS:
* caps refcounting fixes for float2int
* fixed wrt setting of caps on int pad with dynamic number of sink pads in float2int
* added libsndfile plugin (currently only the src is implemented) - currently only float output, noninterleaved is implemented
