This is GStreamer, a framework for streaming media. The
|
|
fundamental design comes from the video pipeline at Oregon Graduate
|
|
Institute, as well as some ideas from DirectMedia. It's based on plug-ins
|
|
that will provide the various codec and other functionality. The
|
|
interface hopefully is generic enough for various companies (ahem, Apple)
|
|
to release binary codecs for Linux, until such time as they get a clue and
|
|
release the source.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Developer note: When building from CVS sources, you will need to run
|
|
autogen.sh to generate the build system files.
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately, there is a bug in automake which causes it to use a large
|
|
amount of memory when generating plugins/Makefile.in. The following patch,
|
|
which you may wish to apply to automake (version 1.4), fixes this problem.
|
|
It is also fixed in versions of automake 1.4f and later.
|
|
Alternatively, ensure that you have at least 512Mb of memory on your system,
|
|
and be prepared to wait a little while when running automake (or autogen.sh).
|
|
|
|
The autogen.sh script will automatically detect an unpatched automake and give
|
|
a warning. It will also generate a patched version of automake in the top
|
|
build directory, which you can use by putting it in a directory in your $PATH
|
|
ahead of the unpatched version of automake.
