OUTDATED

--------

|
|
|
|
Face it, the plugins/ directory hierarchy is crap. We want to propose a
|
|
better layout for it now. Some things to consider:
|
|
|
|
- Elements have a klass member in the factory that is used to
|
|
denote the functional type of the element. For example, the
|
|
mp3 encoder has a klass of Codec/Encoder/Audio
|
|
|
|
- The plugins can be grouped together by the media type they
|
|
operate on or by the way they work (decoder/encoder)
|
|
|
|
In GStreamer all plugins are techically filters, the only way they
|
|
can be considered sources or sinks (input/output) elements is
|
|
by the absence of src/sink pads. At first sight the source/filter/
|
|
sink distinction is quite useless because most of the plugins
|
|
will go into the filters category anyway.
|
|
|
|
We don't want to make the hierarchy too deep, yet provide a
|
|
clean way to ask for a mp3 decoder element..
|
|
|
|
Anyway this is a rough proposal to fire off the discussions...
