A baseclass for scopes (visualizers). It takes care of re-fitting the audio-rate to video-rate and handles renegotiation (downstream video size changes). It also provides several background shading effects. These effects are applied to a previous picture before the render() implementation can draw a new frame. Different types of supported background shading functions. no shading plain fading fade and move up fade and move down fade and move left fade and move right fade and move horizontally out fade and move horizontally in fade and move vertically out fade and move vertically in The #GstDiscoverer is a utility object which allows to get as much information as possible from one or many URIs. It provides two APIs, allowing usage in blocking or non-blocking mode. The blocking mode just requires calling gst_discoverer_discover_uri() with the URI one wishes to discover. The non-blocking mode requires a running #GMainLoop iterating a #GMainContext, where one connects to the various signals, appends the URIs to be processed (through gst_discoverer_discover_uri_async()) and then asks for the discovery to begin (through gst_discoverer_start()). By default this will use the GLib default main context unless you have set a custom context using g_main_context_push_thread_default(). All the information is returned in a #GstDiscovererInfo structure. Creates a new #GstDiscoverer with the provided timeout. The new #GstDiscoverer. If an error occurred when creating the discoverer, @err will be set accordingly and %NULL will be returned. If @err is set, the caller must free it when no longer needed using g_error_free(). timeout per file, in nanoseconds. Allowed are values between one second (#GST_SECOND) and one hour (3600 * #GST_SECOND) Synchronously discovers the given @uri. A copy of @uri will be made internally, so the caller can safely g_free() afterwards. the result of the scanning. Can be %NULL if an error occurred. A #GstDiscoverer The URI to run on. Appends the given @uri to the list of URIs to discoverer. The actual discovery of the @uri will only take place if gst_discoverer_start() has been called. A copy of @uri will be made internally, so the caller can safely g_free() afterwards. %TRUE if the @uri was successfully appended to the list of pending uris, else %FALSE A #GstDiscoverer the URI to add. Allow asynchronous discovering of URIs to take place. A #GMainLoop must be available for #GstDiscoverer to properly work in asynchronous mode. A #GstDiscoverer Stop the discovery of any pending URIs and clears the list of pending URIS (if any). A #GstDiscoverer The duration (in nanoseconds) after which the discovery of an individual URI will timeout. If the discovery of a URI times out, the %GST_DISCOVERER_TIMEOUT will be set on the result flags. Will be emitted in async mode when all information on a URI could be discovered, or an error occurred. When an error occurs, @info might still contain some partial information, depending on the circumstances of the error. the results #GstDiscovererInfo #GError, which will be non-NULL if an error occurred during discovery. You must not free this #GError, it will be freed by the discoverer. Will be emitted in async mode when all pending URIs have been processed. This signal is emitted after the source element has been created for, so the URI being discovered, so it can be configured by setting additional properties (e.g. set a proxy server for an http source, or set the device and read speed for an audio cd source).

The #GstDiscovererStreamInfo represents the topology of the stream. Siblings can be iterated over with gst_discoverer_stream_info_get_next() and gst_discoverer_stream_info_get_previous(). Children (sub-streams) of a stream can be accessed using the #GstDiscovererContainerInfo API. As a simple example, if you run #GstDiscoverer on an AVI file with one audio and one video stream, you will get a #GstDiscovererContainerInfo corresponding to the AVI container, which in turn will have a #GstDiscovererAudioInfo sub-stream and a #GstDiscovererVideoInfo sub-stream for the audio and video streams respectively.

Requests plugin installation without blocking. Once the plugins have been installed or installation has failed, @func will be called with the result of the installation and your provided @user_data pointer. This function requires a running GLib/Gtk main loop. If you are not running a GLib/Gtk main loop, make sure to regularly call g_main_context_iteration(NULL,FALSE). The installer strings that make up @detail are typically obtained by calling gst_missing_plugin_message_get_installer_detail() on missing-plugin messages that have been caught on a pipeline's bus or created by the application via the provided API, such as gst_missing_element_message_new(). It is possible to request the installation of multiple missing plugins in one go (as might be required if there is a demuxer for a certain format installed but no suitable video decoder and no suitable audio decoder). result code whether an external installer could be started NULL-terminated array of installer string details (see below) a #GstInstallPluginsContext, or NULL the function to call when the installer program returns the user data to pass to @func when called, or NULL Checks whether plugin installation (initiated by this application only) is currently in progress. TRUE if plugin installation is in progress, otherwise FALSE Convenience function to return the descriptive string associated with a status code. This function returns English strings and should not be used for user messages. It is here only to assist in debugging. a descriptive string for the status code in @ret the return status code Checks whether plugin installation is likely to be supported by the current environment. This currently only checks whether the helper script that is to be provided by the distribution or operating system vendor exists. TRUE if plugin installation is likely to be supported. Requests plugin installation and block until the plugins have been installed or installation has failed. This function should almost never be used, it only exists for cases where a non-GLib main loop is running and the user wants to run it in a separate thread and marshal the result back asynchronously into the main thread using the other non-GLib main loop. You should almost always use gst_install_plugins_async() instead of this function. the result of the installation.
