Description

The GstDiscoverer is a utility object which allows to get as much information as possible from one or many URIs.

It provides two APIs, allowing usage in blocking or non-blocking mode.

The blocking mode just requires calling gst_discoverer_discover_uri() with the URI one wishes to discover.

The non-blocking mode requires a running GMainLoop iterating a GMainContext, where one connects to the various signals, appends the URIs to be processed (through gst_discoverer_discover_uri_async()) and then asks for the discovery to begin (through gst_discoverer_start()). By default this will use the GLib default main context unless you have set a custom context using g_main_context_push_thread_default().

All the information is returned in a GstDiscovererInfo structure.

Functions

gst_discoverer_new ()

GstDiscoverer *
gst_discoverer_new (GstClockTime timeout,
                    GError **err);

Creates a new GstDiscoverer with the provided timeout.

Parameters

timeout

timeout per file, in nanoseconds. Allowed are values between one second (GST_SECOND) and one hour (3600 * GST_SECOND)

 

err

a pointer to a GError. can be NULL

 

Returns

The new GstDiscoverer. If an error occurred when creating the discoverer, err will be set accordingly and NULL will be returned. If err is set, the caller must free it when no longer needed using g_error_free().

[transfer full]


gst_discoverer_start ()

void
gst_discoverer_start (GstDiscoverer *discoverer);

Allow asynchronous discovering of URIs to take place. A GMainLoop must be available for GstDiscoverer to properly work in asynchronous mode.

Parameters

discoverer

A GstDiscoverer

 

gst_discoverer_stop ()

void
gst_discoverer_stop (GstDiscoverer *discoverer);

Stop the discovery of any pending URIs and clears the list of pending URIS (if any).

Parameters

A GstDiscoverer

 

gst_discoverer_discover_uri ()

GstDiscovererInfo *
gst_discoverer_discover_uri (GstDiscoverer *discoverer,

                             GError **err);

Synchronously discovers the given uri .

A copy of uri will be made internally, so the caller can safely g_free() afterwards.

Parameters

discoverer

A GstDiscoverer

 

uri

The URI to run on.

 

err

If an error occurred, this field will be filled in.

[out][allow-none]

Returns

the result of the scanning. Can be NULL if an error occurred.

Appends the given uri to the list of URIs to discoverer. The actual discovery of the uri will only take place if gst_discoverer_start() has been called.

A copy of uri will be made internally, so the caller can safely g_free() afterwards.

GstDiscovererStreamInfo

typedef struct _GstDiscovererStreamInfo GstDiscovererStreamInfo;

Base structure for information concerning a media stream. Depending on the stream type, one can find more media-specific information in GstDiscovererAudioInfo, GstDiscovererVideoInfo, and GstDiscovererContainerInfo.

The GstDiscovererStreamInfo represents the topology of the stream. Siblings can be iterated over with gst_discoverer_stream_info_get_next() and gst_discoverer_stream_info_get_previous(). Children (sub-streams) of a stream can be accessed using the GstDiscovererContainerInfo API.

As a simple example, if you run GstDiscoverer on an AVI file with one audio and one video stream, you will get a GstDiscovererContainerInfo corresponding to the AVI container, which in turn will have a GstDiscovererAudioInfo sub-stream and a GstDiscovererVideoInfo sub-stream for the audio and video streams respectively.


GstDiscovererContainerInfo

typedef struct _GstDiscovererContainerInfo GstDiscovererContainerInfo;

GstDiscovererStreamInfo specific to container streams.


GstDiscovererAudioInfo

typedef struct _GstDiscovererAudioInfo GstDiscovererAudioInfo;

GstDiscovererStreamInfo specific to audio streams.


GstDiscovererVideoInfo

typedef struct _GstDiscovererVideoInfo GstDiscovererVideoInfo;

GstDiscovererStreamInfo specific to video streams (this includes images).


GstDiscovererSubtitleInfo

typedef struct _GstDiscovererSubtitleInfo GstDiscovererSubtitleInfo;

GstDiscovererStreamInfo specific to subtitle streams (this includes text and image based ones).

Property Details

               gpointer           user_data)

Will be emitted in async mode when all information on a URI could be discovered, or an error occurred.

When an error occurs, info might still contain some partial information, depending on the circumstances of the error.

Parameters

discoverer

the GstDiscoverer

 

info

the results GstDiscovererInfo

 

error

GError, which will be non-NULL if an error occurred during discovery. You must not free this GError, it will be freed by the discoverer.

[type GLib.Error]

user_data

user data set when the signal handler was connected.

 

Flags: Run Last


The “finished” signal

void
user_function (GstDiscoverer *discoverer,
               gpointer       user_data)

Will be emitted in async mode when all pending URIs have been processed.

Parameters

discoverer

the GstDiscoverer

 

user_data

user data set when the signal handler was connected.

 

Flags: Run Last


The “source-setup” signal

void
user_function (GstDiscoverer *discoverer,
               GstElement    *source,
               gpointer       user_data)

This signal is emitted after the source element has been created for, so the URI being discovered, so it can be configured by setting additional properties (e.g. set a proxy server for an http source, or set the device and read speed for an audio cd source).

This signal is usually emitted from the context of a GStreamer streaming thread.

Parameters

discoverer

the GstDiscoverer

 

source

source element

 

user_data

user data set when the signal handler was connected.

 

Flags: Run Last


The “starting” signal

void
user_function (GstDiscoverer *discoverer,
               gpointer       user_data)

Will be emitted when the discover starts analyzing the pending URIs

Parameters

discoverer

the GstDiscoverer

 

user_data

user data set when the signal handler was connected.
