Add support RTP buffers with multiple memory blocks. We allow one block for the header, one for the extension data, N for data and one memory block for the padding. Remove the validate function, we validate now when we map because we need to parse things in order to map multiple memory blocks.

RTP Buffers
|
|
-----------
|
|
The real time protocol as described in RFC 3550 requires the use of special
|
|
packets containing an additional RTP header of at least 12 bytes. GStreamer
|
|
provides some helper functions for creating and parsing these RTP headers.
|
|
The result is a normal #GstBuffer with an additional RTP header.
|
|
|
|
RTP buffers are usually created with gst_rtp_buffer_new_allocate() or
|
|
gst_rtp_buffer_new_allocate_len(). These functions create buffers with a
|
|
preallocated space of memory. It will also ensure that enough memory
|
|
is allocated for the RTP header. The first function is used when the payload
|
|
size is known. gst_rtp_buffer_new_allocate_len() should be used when the size
|
|
of the whole RTP buffer (RTP header + payload) is known.
|
|
|
|
When receiving RTP buffers from a network, gst_rtp_buffer_new_take_data()
|
|
should be used when the user would like to parse that RTP packet. (TODO Ask
|
|
Wim what the real purpose of this function is as it seems to simply create a
|
|
duplicate GstBuffer with the same data as the previous one). The
|
|
function will create a new RTP buffer with the given data as the whole RTP
|
|
packet. Alternatively, gst_rtp_buffer_new_copy_data() can be used if the user
|
|
wishes to make a copy of the data before using it in the new RTP buffer.
|
|
|
|
It is now possible to use all the gst_rtp_buffer_get_*() or
|
|
gst_rtp_buffer_set_*() functions to read or write the different parts of the
|
|
RTP header such as the payload type, the sequence number or the RTP
|
|
timestamp. The use can also retreive a pointer to the actual RTP payload data
|
|
using the gst_rtp_buffer_get_payload() function.

RTP Base Payloader Class (GstBaseRTPPayload)
|
|
--------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
All RTP payloader elements (audio or video) should derive from this class.
|
|
|
|
RTP Base Audio Payloader Class (GstBaseRTPAudioPayload)
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
This base class can be tested through it's children classes. Here is an
|
|
example using the iLBC payloader (frame based).
|
|
|
|
For 20ms mode :
|
|
|
|
GST_DEBUG="basertpaudiopayload:5" gst-launch-0.10 fakesrc sizetype=2
|
|
sizemax=114 datarate=1900 ! audio/x-iLBC, mode=20 ! rtpilbcpay
|
|
max-ptime="40000000" ! fakesink
|
|
|
|
For 30ms mode :
|
|
|
|
GST_DEBUG="basertpaudiopayload:5" gst-launch-0.10 fakesrc sizetype=2
|
|
sizemax=150 datarate=1662 ! audio/x-iLBC, mode=30 ! rtpilbcpay
|
|
max-ptime="60000000" ! fakesink
|
|
|
|
Here is an example using the uLaw payloader (sample based).
|
|
|
|
GST_DEBUG="basertpaudiopayload:5" gst-launch-0.10 fakesrc sizetype=2
|
|
sizemax=150 datarate=8000 ! audio/x-mulaw ! rtppcmupay max-ptime="6000000" !
|
|
fakesink
|
|
|
|
RTP Base Depayloader Class (GstBaseRTPDepayload)
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
All RTP depayloader elements (audio or video) should derive from this class.
|
