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:
Lots of updates to the plugins for caps negotiation.
Added YUY2 output to the win32 dlls.
Added a colorspace converter in gstplay
Original commit message from CVS:
Add a proposed makefile to use in place of Makefile.am.
This depends on automake 1.4d or later, but is much neater, avoiding
horrible hacks to pass special flags in.
I put it here for safekeeping until automake 1.5 is released, at which
point we can reasonably require it.
Original commit message from CVS:
Fix obscure segfault I just got: perhaps due to running with libxml 1.8.11
(prerelease version), but a worthwhile fix anyway.
Original commit message from CVS:
A rather large update:
- a new videosink using plain X windows (xvideosink). It uses capsnego to
set up it's formats.
- gstplay uses the new xvideosink and a gtk_socket. The initial window
size is set to 0x0 so you need to resize it before you see something.
- got rid of the video metadata include file in favour of properties and
caps negotiation
- adjusted most plugins to not use the metadata.
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:
Added a plain X videosink, the videosink uses capsnego.
adjusted the v4lsrc so that it uses capsnego on the src pad
Small fixed to capsnego and the properties/caps.
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:
More work on capsnego, mostly proxying
Added another testsuite for capsnego
Added caps to vorbisdec, mp3parse, mp1videoparse
Redid the queue proxy handling a bit.
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:
Fix gst_init() so that it doesn't fail when passed two NULLs as parameters.
Was dereferencing the argv pointer to get progname: now defaults to
"gstprog".
Original commit message from CVS:
Small fixes to pipeline and gstbin.
Fixed the xmmstest makefile entry
Removed the plugin_load statements in videotest
Applied the patch from Steve Baker for float args parsing
Original commit message from CVS:
Added a utility function in gstutils to set an object argument as a
string. gstparse.c and gstelement.c now use this function.
Original commit message from CVS:
CPU detection of MMXEXT and probably 3DNOW (not on Athlon yet)
Renamed the mmxe motion compentation files.
disabled SSE optimisation in ac3dec because it apparently faults..
enable MMXEXT motion compensation on non SSE CPUs (AMD)
Original commit message from CVS:
slightly changed the Makefile.am in videoscale libs.
v4lsrc works again
A little modification to the videotest programm to use a tee element.
added support for multiple paths in --gst-plugin_path=.
added ab ENV variable GST_PLUGIN_PATH to specify extra directories to
look for plugins.
Original commit message from CVS:
Added two options: --gst-plugin-spew will print errors when plugins fail
to load. --gst-plugin-path= will add a directory to the path searched for
plugins.
Original commit message from CVS:
More doc updates
Manual additions: xml/load save of custom XML, debugging, request pads
added a signal to the example plugin
fixed a bug in mp3parse (ifdef 1)
Original commit message from CVS:
Fix a couple of instances of childs, which should be xmlChildrenNode. We
need to be careful to stop these creeping back in... ;-)
Original commit message from CVS:
- backported the xml load bug in the properties
- backported the videosink bug
- make sure the regiontype is set to NONE after a getregion
- an ugly fix (copy the chainfunction outselves) to make the avidecoder
work again.
Original commit message from CVS:
Reworked getregion/pullregion stuff. Region is now specified by a type
(OFFSET_LEN, TIME_LEN, etc.) and two guint64's. They are offset and len,
where offset can be used for the time field, and len would be zero or
the time unit (say, 33ms for video).
Original commit message from CVS:
Added a first attempt for XML embedding in the main core XML.
Objects will emit a signal that a user app can connect to in order to
insert its XML into the tree.
You can catch the object_loaded signal in GstXML to parse the user
supplied XML data in the stream. The object_loaded signal is implemented
with a custom made class signal. All GstObject classes now automatically
create a GstSignalObject that serves as a proxy to the user app when an
object is loaded. All objects are currently responsible to emit the
class signal themselves.
runxml and createxml serve as an example how the XML hooks can be used to
insert and retrieve custom XML tags.
Original commit message from CVS:
Lots of plugins fixes where the parentage macros were replaced with the
correct gst_*_get_parent.
Updated the example.
'gstreamer' now is the doc type instead of GST-Pipeline
Original commit message from CVS:
This is a megapatch with the following changes:
- moved the gchar *name to GstObject, removed the ones in GstElement and
GstPad.
- moved the parent handling completely into GstObject. This cause *all* of
the plugins to fail (except those that used gst_pad_get_parent)
- rearanged the XML save handling.
- GstObject now has a class function save/restore_thyself.
- GstObject has a generic method gst_object_save_thyself, this makes it
possible to fire a signal wehever a new object is loaded. This is needed
so we can add XML save hooks.
- GstXML API has changed slightly. You now have to create a GstXML object
first before you can actually load something. This makes it possible to
attach a signal to GstXML whenever an object is loaded. I'm not sure we
will keep this interface.
- GstObject can now print the path_string without knowing about the GstPad and
GstElement types.
- Added gst_bin_get_by_name_recurse_up to lookup an element in the current
element hierarchy.
- added XML namespaces to the saved pipelines the namespace is:
http://gstreamer.net/gst-core/1.0/
namespaces are needed to distinguish user generated XML from the core XML.
Note that the plugins still contain a macro GST_OBJECT_PARENT that will be
replaced with gst_pad_get_parent shortly.
Original commit message from CVS:
Add gst_element_request_compatible_pad and remove gst_element_request_pad.
Implemented something reasonable for gst_element_request_compatible_pad,
but havn't tested much: it won't work for tee because the pad templates
have no caps, and negotiation is not yet written, so it is assumed that the
tee pads can't connect to anything.
Original commit message from CVS:
Docs updates
Added XML load from memory functionality
Undid the videosink patch, something else is wrong now on my machine:
no MMX acceleration :-(
Original commit message from CVS:
Applied the patch from Sepp Wijnands <mrrazz@garbage-coderz.net> that solves
the 'OSS hangs when opening the device when in use' bug.
Original commit message from CVS:
Check for NULL buffers before chaining/pushing them to the next element.
NULL buffers happen on EOS.
gst_bin_iterate now returns a gboolean indicating something usefull happened.
It the bin is EOS, it returns FALSE.
Original commit message from CVS:
More EOS changes.
When a bin2 is found inside a bin1, we add the bin2 to the EOS providers
of the bin1. When there is nothing more to schedule in bin1 and bin2 has
fired EOS, bin1 is in EOS.
The queue overrides the EOS notification and calls EOS on the src pad
when the queue is empty and the sink pad is in EOS.
Original commit message from CVS:
A very small change to make eos somewhat work. no inner bins are checked.
When an element fires EOS, the chain with that element is removed from
the scheduler (marked inactive). If all chains are inactive, the bin
fires EOS.
Original commit message from CVS:
Major cleanup of the latest ghostpad changes. Fixed everything that
broke, correctly. Someone will want to go update the API doc templates.
Original commit message from CVS:
ALPHA COTHREADS WORK! Worked around a nasty stack issue that probably
can't be solved anyway. Tomorrow the UDB build will commence, and let the
best guess win!
Original commit message from CVS:
First pass at updating to new ghostpad system. The objects are in place,
I now need to go and get all the Bin end of things worked out. Testing
should be fairly easy, at least for verification.
Everything I've tried so far works with no changes, with is amazing.
That's just cool. Once again we rewrite an entire subsystem, and nothing
else notices anything but the new features ;-)
Original commit message from CVS:
Added mthodes to request an element to create pads: gst_element_request_pad*
This can be used to construct a tee and a muxer/mixer/aggregator element.
Moved the tee element to elements/ because it can now be handled with the
new pad request features.
The padfactory also has some changes: a pad can now be of presence REQUEST,
which means that the pad can be requested from this plugin (doh).
Original commit message from CVS:
Updates to cothreads code, including non-working alpha. Changed things a
bit, including PPC. Not having a PPC machine, I need someone to test
these changes and report back whether they worked or not.
Original commit message from CVS:
Adding nasty hack to rules to generate cothreads.{o,lo}, to get dependencies
right. Rules copied from automake, and therefore a bit dependent on automake
keeping doing dependency things the same kind of way, but it should work as
long as automake puts dependencies into .deps/*.P
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 an extra signal_cond to queue to make sure that the waiting thread
is woken up. Can somebody with queue problems verifify that this does
improve the situation a bit. I'm suspecting that something else is going
on, like a pthreads bug or something.
Small updates to the fake elements.
Original commit message from CVS:
Handle the tee element like bin, thread, pipeline, so that it can be used
in gstreamer-inspect and gstreamer-launch...
Original commit message from CVS:
gstreamer-register will now never cause the
** WARNING **: gstplugin: registry needs rebuild
warning to appear - sets a hidden global in gstplugin.c to turn the
warning off.
Fix a warning in gst/cothreads.c (function was declared extern, defined
static)
Original commit message from CVS:
Check plugin repository up-to-dateness by scanning through all directories
on path, and checking that they and all their files are older than the
repository. Give warning message if not.
