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:
GST_DEBUG reorganization
This is a big diff (ca 450k), containing loads of stuff:
- gstinfo.[ch] complete rewrite
- changing of all GST_DEBUG messages to reflect that change
- reorganization of subsystem disabling
- addition of gstconfig.h.in so we can track the disablings
- <gst/gst.h> does not include <unistd.h> and <config.h> anymore
- documentation updated for gstinfo stuff (build the docs yourself to know what changed)
- bugfixes for making of the docs (files from CVS are not deleted anymore
- testsuite for debugging changes in testsuite/debug
expect breakage
Original commit message from CVS:
- Add more --disable options
- fix makefiles to only compile non-disabled features
- some compile fixes.
- removed extratypes, added gsturitype
- make get/set clock on a bin overridable
- some portability fixes for GUINT64
- separate pools from gstregistry.[ch] into gstregistrypool.[ch]
- make gstobject size fixed, even if we disabled load/save
- don't use 'new' as a variable as it is not a valib C++ variable
Original commit message from CVS:
- Removed unused locking from the cothreads
- use G_*_DECLS in .h files
- remove gstlog.h include from gstobject.h, add to .c files
- removed unused refcounting code from gstobject
- small fixes in #includes
- Added Scheduling policy and priority properties to gstthread so that
SCHED_FIFO and SCHED_RR threads can be constructed.
Original commit message from CVS:
Totally rewritten registry handling.
- move the registry save/load code into a gstregistry subclass, this
will make it possible to use other registries (flat file, web based,
RDBMS type, etc..)
- a simple GMarkup xml registry is implemented
- use standard statically linked plugins for core elements.
- GstPlugin has a very well defined set of functions now
A little bytestream hack..
Added more info to -inspect.
Some more debugging info for clocking.
Small cleanups
I use ./gst-register --gst-plugin-path=/opt/src/sourceforge/gst-plugins/gst-libs:/opt/src/sourceforge/gst-plugins/
to register core and gst-plugins now.
Original commit message from CVS:
- make all _get_list functions return a const reference to original lists and no copy
- redo code accordingly
- fix compile issue in dparam stuff
Original commit message from CVS:
commit to make gstreamer follow the gtk function/macro naming conventions:
GstPadTemplate <-> gst_pad_template <-> GST_PAD_TEMPLATE
and the same for *factory and typefind.
Original commit message from CVS:
API docs.
revived _buffer_ref_by_count
fast types for scheduler and bin.
error checking on plugin features;
removed some prototypes that were not implemented (gst_pipeline_iterate
comes to mind)
remove gst_pad_event until we know what it's supposed to do.
remove sinesrc, it wasn't compiles anymore, so...
updates to various elements that used the old event API.
Original commit message from CVS:
1. Add more warnings for the gst core only. Various trival fixes
to quiet the warnings.
2. Fix GstBufferCopyFunc prototype.
3. Re-apply the reverted type!=0 assertion in gst_elementfactory_new.
Original commit message from CVS:
gstinfo.[ch], cothreads.c: added initial support for -finstrument_functions
gstbin.c: removed a reference to config.h
gstbuffer.[ch]: added gst_buffer_is_span_fast(), used it in gst_buffer_span
elements/gstfilesrc.c: initial work fleshing out the event handling code
everywhere else: wrapped XML stuff in #ifndef's
Original commit message from CVS:
Lots of modifications to the plugin system.
- Added a GstPluginfeature object that serves as a base class for all
plugin contents.
- changed the plugin API, everyhting is now added with
gst_plugin_add_feature
- typefactories are named now so that they can be located easily and filled
in at plugin load.
- mime types like "video/raw image/raw" are gone for now.
- lots of plugin updates (style and API changes)
- tested with an without registry.
- updates to various tools.
- added a little testsuite to test/show how you can load plugins (4 modes)
Test this one, Almost everything has changed :-)
Original commit message from CVS:
Updated the manual and the docs.
Removed the esdsink in gst/elements/ we have a real one not in the
plugins dir.
Added more APIs to query the plugins, types and caps. more fields now
have a getter and a setter. This is needed to make gstreamer wrapper
fiendly.
Added gst_element_disconnect beacuse we also have a gst_element_connect
Original commit message from CVS:
Mega update of INFO, DEBUG, and ERROR subsystems, renamed with GST_ prefix.
GST_DEBUG now takes a category parameter, which is the same as GST_INFO
system. They are now called GST_CAT_*. All the GST_DEBUGs are set to 0
for now, we need to go and fix all these eventually.
Original commit message from CVS:
Started work on better ghostpad management, and started to build the low-
level EOS mechanism.
Also removed a couple of printouts that aren't needed any more.
Original commit message from CVS:
Cleanup in gsttypes.c:
removed the crazy GList of GHashTables, since the autoplugger will
use the GstCaps and elementfactories instead of the type system.
We don't maintain a list anymore of the elements for the specific
removed unused code in XML loading/saving.
Cleanup in gstelementfactory:
removed the register/unregister methods, register is now implicit when
gst_elementfactory_new is called. _unregister is now _destroy.
Removed logic to register/unregister the types in gsttypes.
added methods to query if the factory can src/sink a GstCaps
Make sure the elementfactory is set in the element_class when a new
element is registered with gst_elementfactory_new.
gst.c: properly register the basic bins
gst_pipeline: use new gstautoplug (next checkin)
gstprops: fixed an error in compatibility check
registry test program changes
plugins: misc changes for the new caps system.
Original commit message from CVS:
The typefind function now returns a GstCaps structure instead of a gboolean.
modified some plugins to this new behaviour
Fixed autoplugging for the mpg123 case. When an element is selected in
autoplugging and the caps do not match, another element is selected until the
caps match. only examples/autoplug works because gstmediaplay uses a threaded
setup that does not seem to work with the current scheduling.
Original commit message from CVS:
Move a step closer to autoplugging. The element selection in the
pipeline works.
Slight modification to the typefind function handling.
removed the stupid mime types in the mpeg decoders.
Adjust videosink for the new caps handling.
Modified the queue example to show an error in plan creation; Erik can you
solve this? This is the type of pipelines autoplugging uses.
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:
Changed the GstPadFactory and added the GstPadTemplate.
The GstPadFactory is an easy way to define a pad with capabilities.
The GstPadFactory is converted into a GstPadTemplate. The template is
used to create new pads and to expose the possible pads used in an
element to the plugin system.
updated mp3parse, mpg123, cdparanoia to the new API.
Rerun gstreamer-register because the XML definition has changed.
Original commit message from CVS:
More Caps changes, this change introduces the padfactory. the GstPadFactory
will be used to describe the pads that an element will contain during
its lifetime.
mpg123 and mp3parse serve as an example.
More XML changes to incorporate the padfactories.
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)
Original commit message from CVS:
Docs updates.
Added LICENSE info to headers/code where missing in gst directory
Added a bonobo wrapper for the media player (it shows up in gshell but
locks up when activating the component, anyone?)
Fixed some XML save/load problems with arguments.
Original commit message from CVS:
Code cleanup, make it adhere to the Gnome/Gtk+ code formatting, which is
quite clean and more readable.
Renamed parseavi to avidecoder
Implemented seeking/time display/pause/play/stop/clean exit to gstmediaplay
Added an element flag to indicate that it cannot deal with noncontigous
buffers. If such an element is found in the pipeline, seeking is disabled
for the complete stream (avidecoder cannot deal with seeking until we convert
it to a loop based element with pull_region to fetch the indeces etc...)
Original commit message from CVS:
Fixed a bug in the typeloading.
Fixes to various elements so that correct types are returned.
Fixed flag collision with GtkObject.
Elements can now suggest a thread. not sure if this is the right way to
handle automatic thread creation.
Autoplugging now works with multiple sinks and thread setup. No threads
are created for intermediate elements yet, so MPEG may still be choppy.
Original commit message from CVS:
Added a quick hack to allow loop based elements to finish intead of
looping till infinity.
Added compile time i386 or plain C getbits implementation selection.
The vorbis decoder now is our first loop based element!
Original commit message from CVS:
Externalized the plugin information in /etc/gstreamer/reg.xml
- no need to do a plugin_load_all()
- plugins are loaded when needed
- typedetect functions are loaded when needed (still buggy)
- no need to check for the existance of the plugin in the codecs
- added gstreamer-register to create the reg.xml file
- renamed launch to gstreamer-launch
- plugins need to register the typefactory they provide
modified the plugins to meet the new design
modified the plugins to correctly set their pad types
autoplugging can be done without loading the plugins now
Original commit message from CVS:
More docs (most of them just empty...)
Added automatic pad plugging.
Added automatic dynamic pad plugging.
Changed some codecs to correctly set their pad types.
Original commit message from CVS:
A first (rude) attempt at autoplug.
Autoplugging selects appropriate codecs to connect src to sink, adds
them to the pipeline and connect pads.
Autoplugging will run the typedetect plugin if the src pad has no MIME
type.
No autoplugging is done on the src and sink pads, it's hardcoded:
connect 'src to sink'.
No attempt at creating threads.
No attempt at dynamically autoplugging not yet existing pads.
Changes to (some) plugins to properly set their MIME types.
Original commit message from CVS:
This is a rather large patch. Switched on -Wall compiler flag and fixed
the warnings.
Made the Video for Linux more like it should be.
