Original commit message from CVS: - added playondemand plugin by Leif Morgan Johnson <lmjohns3@eos.ncsu.edu> - some fixes to int2float - aplied a patch from wrobell <wrobell@ite.pl> that is a first attempt at making automake 1.5 happy (gst now requires automake1.5). It's still not perfect but it builds. - Made the schedulers plugable. The default scheduler now lives inside a plugin. - Added a new mpeg1/2 parser/demuxer. - Fixed some compiler warnings in the core libs. - substantial work to GstThread (hopefully less race conditions). simplified the code in GstThread a bit. A state change can now also happen in the thread context. - reworked the state semantics of a bin. it'll now automatically get the highest state of its children. - the autoplugger now nests the threads so that a state change failure of one thread doesn't make its upstream thread lock. - GstQueue refuses to go to PLAYING if the sinkpad is not connected. This way the queue will not wedge in the _get lock. - GstQueue unlocks its mutexes when going to PAUSED. - make sure that when all elements in a bin/thread go to PAUSED, the bin is set to PAUSED too. - make a parent bin wait for its children to PAUSE before ending the iteration with FALSE (EOS) - Some changes to GstPlay to deal with EOS. - aplied the latest patch from Zeenix to gstrtp. end result: GstPlay doesn't crash on EOS and the pipeline is now shut down properly. |

The following plugin modes are supported:
1) registry based
-----------------
All known plugins are listed in the registry file.
gst_plugin_find ("pluginname");
Works right after gst_init (), along with the elements in it.
dynamic loading of the plugin is performed when a feature inside
it is requested.
example: registry.c. (You might want to run gstreamer-register with
the --gst-plugin-path=. to added the test dir to the plugin path so
that the testplugins can be found)
2) non registry based, dynmic loading
-------------------------------------
Plugins are know after a gst_plugin_load ("pluginname"). This
function will scan de plugin paths, so you might want to perform
a gst_plugin_add_path ("path").
After the gst_plugin_load(), the features are available without any
further actions.
example: dynamic.c
3) non registry based, shared linking
-------------------------------------
You can add the plugin .so (or equivalent) file to the LDFLAGS at
compile time. The plugin will be known after the gst_init() without
any further actions.
example: linked.c
4) non registry based, static linking
-------------------------------------
Plugin compiled with the GST_PLUGIN_STATIC defined can be statically
linked to the executable. The plugin is available after gst_init ()
without any further actions.
example: static.c (plugins are statically linked from another file)
static2.c (plugins are included in the main file)
Any combination of the above is possible too, for example, you can use
a registry, have some plugins load dynamically and have another few
linked in as a shared lib.
You cannot statically link multiple plugins that are compiled without the
GST_PLUGIN_STATIC symbol defined (this will cause multiple defined at link
time for obvious reasons)
