Original commit message from CVS:
rework id3tag plugin to work as
a) parser - just strip id3 tags
b) tag reader - extract tags and go EOS
c) tag writer - change id3 tags
Included is some revamping to ease code to make it possible to strip id3tag from its mad dependency (without ID3v2 support), which would still make the parsing bits work. This is however not done yet.
This plugin supercedes the id3types plugin.
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:
first bunch of conversions to new plugin_init. Includes libs/gst, gst/id3, sys/oss, ext/gnomevfs, gst/typefind and ext/mad.
You guessed it, everything Rhythmbox needs ;)
fixed BMP typefind and made gnomevfs one plugin instead of two while doing this
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:
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:
- if you don't know the timestamp, don't try to guess. Send an invalid one.
- use new macro GST_CLOCK_TIME_IS_VALID
- send the first buffer, too (funny that nobody noticed for ages, that we don't send the first audio buffer ever, no?)
Original commit message from CVS:
- Small speed improvements
- added id3 tag support
This is a POC for metadata notification, benefits of using gobject
properties and GstCaps are basically:
- GstCaps as boxed type (g_strdup_value_contents() etc works)
- g_object_notify to notify the app of (new/updated) metadata
- deep_notify to get easily pass metadata up in the pipeline
- GstCaps API for easy parsing of lists, strings, ints etc.
- GstCaps mime type to describe the type of metadata (ID3 tags,
standard Gst tags etc)
- easy method of setting metadata on objects/pads (for encoders)
