Original commit message from CVS:
tagging stuff and build fixes. In detail:
- make gdk-pixbuf loader work when distchecking
- fix invalid syntax in ffmpeg Makefile. wildcards for EXTRA_DIST are not allowed. This broke builds where distdir != srcdir
- fix ffmpeg cvs grabbing when srcdir != distdir
- new id3tag plugin for id3 tag reading/writing (uses mad's libid3tag)
- mad and libid3tag require mad/libid3tag v0.15. Fixed configure to require that
- added ogg demuxer in ext/ogg. The demuxer does not handle events yet. Especially getting seeking right will require some effort or code copying from libvorbis.
- added raw vorbis detection to typefinding. oggdemux requires a typefind function to detect its contents.
- tags plugin in gst/tags. Provides API in <gst/tags/gsttagediting.h>. API includes tag matching GStreamer <=> ID3 and GStreamer <=> vorbis and writing/reading vorbiscomments or ID3v1 tags. Also included is a simple vorbiscomment reader/writer. Writing will not really work though until someone writes oggmux.
- various build fixes. Mostly missing (DIST)CLEANFILES.
- vorbisenc handles tag writing.
Now it's YOUR turn to fix and write more plugins that handle writing/reading of tags. :)
Original commit message from CVS:
Fix device probing from multiple childs. It's done once in the parent class only now, but the childs do get the correct values. Also fixes an incorrect succesful state change if we opened a v4l device that doesn't have the capabilities that are needed by the plugin.
Original commit message from CVS:
Remove all config.h includes from header files, add it to each source file and remove duplicate config.h includes from several source files
Original commit message from CVS:
Some interface implementations for video4linux/video4linux2 plugins:
* a Tuner interface, with which one can select inputs and stations. Audio
work is underway here, but unfinished.
* A Xoverlay interface with which one can do simple overlay. Similar to
the API of the v4l/Xv XFree86 extension. Widget implementation for
GTK-2.0 coming up in the sandbox.
* Colorbalance - for adapting colors (brightness, contrast, etc.) - pretty
basic and maybe somewhat overdesigned. But it'll do for now.
Apart from these interfaces, there's also a loadable library 'xwindowlistener'
that listenes to X for the movement of a window and the overlap of other
windows. This is partly copied from xawtv (and thus partly GPL :(), but it's
needed for the xoverlay interface implementation in the v4l/v4l2 elements.
Lastly, some small changes to remove redundant properties from the v4l/v4l2
elements since these can be done much simpler. Comments appreciated!
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:
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.
Original commit message from CVS:
Added *BSD (and Darwin) ioctl cdaudio playing. Couple bugfixes. 'end-track','current-track' and 'cddb-discid' properties and 'track-change' signal for the element.
Original commit message from CVS:
* a hack to work around intltool's brokenness
* a current check for mpeg2dec
* details->klass reorganizations
* an element browser that uses details->klass
* separated cdxa parse out from the avi directory
Original commit message from CVS:
* some s/KHz/Hz/ fixes in osssrc
* added dxr3 plugin from rehan khwaja <rehankhwaja@yahoo.com>, with some
consistency-with-the-rest-of-gst adjustments
Original commit message from CVS:
* removal of //-style comments
* don't link plugins to core libs -- the versioning is done internally to the plugins with the plugin_info struct,
and symbol resolution is lazy, so we can always know if a plugin can be loaded by the plugin_info data. in theory.
Original commit message from CVS:
s/@GST_PLUGIN_LDFLAGS@/$(GST_PLUGIN_LDFLAGS)/
@-substitued variables variables are defined as make variables automagically,
and this gives the user the freedom to say make GST_PLUGIN_LDFLAGS=-myflag
Original commit message from CVS:
adding 'videosink' element
It's basically a rewritten xvideosink, but is more modular and allows 'hooks'.
It is needed by GstVideoWidget in gst-player
