Capsfilters are created on the constructor and their properties can
be set/get from camerabin2's set/get_property functions. The user with
a broken setup would cause assertions when trying to set/get the
capture caps of this camerabin2.
A proper missing-plugin message will be posted when the user tries to
set camerabin2 to READY state.
Adds a property to add a custom GstElement to the audio
branch of the pipeline. This allows the user to do custom audio
processing/analysis when recording videos.
camrabin2 connects a viewfinderbin on "vfsrc". viewfinderbin is made of:
vfbin-csp ! vfbin-videoscale ! videosink.
we should either remove csp/videoscale from wrappercamerabinsrc (as
done in this patch) or we should get rid of viewfinderbin altogether.
The use of this method was removed in:
commit 539f10f4d9
basecamerasrc: More cleanup
The code from wrappercamerabinsrc is from v4l2camerasrc but is unused:
get_allowed_input_caps is not called anywhere.
The audio source inside camerabin2 is put to READY and back to
PLAYING when starting capture, causing the pipeline to lose its
clock. As camerabin2 isn't put to PAUSED->PLAYING again during
this, a new clock isn't selected for elements.
A flags property has been added to encodebin to toggle whether the
conversion elements (ffmpegcolorspace, videoscale, audioconvert,
audioresample, audiorate) are created and linked into the appropriate
branches of encodebin.
Not including these elements avoids some slow caps negotiation and
allows the first buffers to flow through encodebin much more quickly.
However, it imposes that the uncompressed input is appropriate for the
target profile and elements selected to meet that profile.
If we bring the audio source up to the PAUSED state before emitting the
start-capture signal to the camera source, when subequently taking the
audio source to the PLAYING state, it will begin capture more quickly.
Since camerabin2 has switched to encodebin and encodebin has its own
queues and conversion elements, those preceding encodebin are no longer
necessary and as such can be removed.
Using a NULL string for location means that the application
doesn't want the image to be encoded, but wants to receive
the preview image. (Only works for image captures)
Useful for application that want the capture in memory only, like
displaying to the user before it choses to encode or take another
picture in avatar capturing scenarios.

The default for tagsetters is to use merge keep mode, so tags
would never be replaced and all captures would have the same tags.
This commit watches all elements added into encodebin and sets
all tagsetters to merge replace mode
Using serialized custom events for switching image capture saving
location makes camerabin2 save each capture correctly to the location
that was set during the moment start-capture was called, and not
the moment the filesink was writing to disk.
This prevents captures to be overwriten by racyness among start-capture
and setting location for images.
We only need to change the state of the filesink to switch its
saving location. This might still cause some problems of dropping
captured buffers, but it is better than changing the state of
the whole branch.
Camerabin2 allows setting a filter for image, video or viewfinder, but
not one filter for all three at the same time. I added a filter to
wrappercamerabinsrc to allow setting a global filter when using this
source.

Some properties (like viewfinder-filter) only are taken into use
on NULL->READY transitions and the get/set property was returning
the currently in use value, instead of the last set.
This is bad, as after setting 'a' to 'x', you expect that getting 'a'
will return 'x'. This patch fixes it.
If needed, later we could add current-* properties that are readonly
and get the current value in use.
handle the case where encodebin doesn't have the pad
camerabin2 is requesting, either because of its current profile
or because of missing elements, making it fail to provide
the pad
Use merge replace mode to allow new tags to override old ones
and fix the use case where the last sent tags should be serialized
to the captured images.
In video mode the tags should be pushed after sending the start capture
to the source, this allows the video recording elements to be reset
and leave the flushing state they were at after a previous capture.
This fixes the problem where tags only work for the first video capture
Remove the android/ top dir
Fixe the Makefile.am to be androgenized
To build gstreamer for android we are now using androgenizer which generates the needed Android.mk files.
Androgenizer can be found here: http://git.collabora.co.uk/?p=user/derek/androgenizer.git
Instead of probing the videosink sinkpad for passing EOS, better
to wait for EOS from the bus.
This makes sure the filesink has already processed it and is
ready to close the file. This is used to notify applications
that camerabin2 is idle and can be shut down.
This is not implemented in any of our real sources to which wrappercamerabinsrc
might connect but this is optional and can be implemented at any time. A
limit on the software zoom level using video{crop,scale} would be arbitrary.
