sploving | hi mithro | 00:20 |
---|---|---|
sploving | I am interested in the GSoC project "Make gst-switch server scriptable via Python" | 00:21 |
sploving | Does this project mean that we add python bindings for gst-switch so that in python, we can use gst-switch? thx | 00:21 |
mithro | Hi sploving | 01:54 |
sploving | hi mithro | 02:04 |
mithro | so | 02:11 |

hyades | hello mithro- | 13:35 |
mithro- | hey hyades | 13:36 |
mithro- | did you have any questions | 13:36 |
hyades | i went through the document describing gst-switch | 13:36 |
hyades | it gave loads of info about the project | 13:36 |
hyades | can you tell what improvements can be planned as part of gsoc | 13:37 |
mithro- | so you've looked at the issue list right? | 13:47 |
hyades | yeah | 13:48 |
mithro- | anything on that take your fancy? | 13:49 |
hyades | regarding the python api | 13:50 |
hyades | do you want a api on top of the C code | 13:50 |
mithro- | so gst-switch UI talks dbus to the gst-switch server | 13:51 |
mithro- | so the python API would be on top of dbus-python | 13:51 |
hyades | can you give an example to explain this | 13:52 |
hyades | maybe some function | 13:52 |
mithro- | so you understand how gst-switch is split into the UI and server parts? | 13:57 |
hyades | ya | 13:59 |
hyades | though havnt gone through the ui part yet | 13:59 |
hyades | the srv part i went through the code | 14:00 |
mithro- | so the server is selecting which audio and video streams to use | 14:07 |
mithro- | we'd like to be able to do that from Python | 14:07 |
mithro- | the server can also mix the video | 14:10 |
mithro- | in picture-in-picture mode | 14:10 |
mithro- | so being able to control that would be good too | 14:10 |
mithro- | so you'd write a python library | 14:10 |
mithro- | which talks over dbus and lets you do things like control the server | 14:11 |
mithro- | one place this would be useful would be writing tests | 14:11 |
hyades | ok | 14:12 |
hyades | so according to the diagram svg the user would be looking at the previews and then he would control the "composite" part using this api. The server will then mix according to the user's instructions. Is this correct? | 14:15 |
mithro- | yes | 14:27 |
mithro- | at the moment the UI lets you manually select which video/audio is being combined | 14:27 |
hyades | ok got it | 14:28 |
hyades | and i am not able to launch the gst-switch in the non-testing mode. | 14:29 |
hyades | I am running gst-switch-srv and gst-switch-ui | 14:29 |
mithro- | hyades, and what happens? | 14:29 |
hyades | and didnt specify any video sources | 14:30 |
hyades | where are they put in? | 14:30 |
hyades | * i didnt | 14:30 |
hyades | suppose i want to add /dev/video0 and /dev/video1 | 14:32 |
hyades | or maybe videotestsrc | 14:33 |
