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:
Simplified the FOURCC API to the caps, add a GST_MAKE_FOURCC macro
to create a fourcc.
Adjusted the plugins to use the new FOURCC API
Original commit message from CVS:
Modified a lot of plugins to use the caps system.
Modified the caps of audio/raw to our agreed properties.
Added the multidisksrc plugin of Dominic Ludlam
Renamed audiosink/src to osssink/src and updated all the examples using
the old name. Moved oss specific plugins in an oss directory. removed
the old audiosink from the elements/ dir.
removed audioraw.h metadata header files since we now use the properties.
There are still a few plugins that won't build because they include the
old audioraw.h header file. This will be fixed soon.
Make sure the caps are set in the plugins as described by their
padtemplates (this should solve problems with gstmediaplay with various
media files).
*please don't panic when some plugins won't build, just cd manually into
the plugin dirs* This will be fixed soon.
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:
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:
Massive build fixup. Will send message to -devel list later with details
on the changes and what they mean for Makefile.am writers. Check
docs/random/omega/build/TODO for a list of things that I had to make sure
of.
NOTE: this requires a complete rebuild of all plugins, since I also
changed the STATE enum to a bitfield instead of sequential numbers.
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 serious bug in gst_props_new: properties with a 0 value causes
a segfault
Fixed a possible bug in gstautoplug when one of the constructed paths
was empty
Commented out a too liberal assert in gstscheduler.c
Added GST_BUFFER_DISCONTINUOUS
tried to fix asyndisksrc
Original commit message from CVS:
Added API to dynamically create GstCaps and GstProps
Changed typefind of mpeg1 to set the GstProps.
autoplugging now works again for mpeg1, whoohoo!
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:
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)
