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:
Added code to handle split segments, changed src caps to video/avi to make
it work with ffmpeg. Correct time conversion code. Numerous minor bug fixes
and slight code cleanup.
Original commit message from CVS:
First step in giving us asf support is making this code widely available.
Now back to step 2 which used to be step 1 and get this code debugged so
it works :)
