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 in the default 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()).

All the information is returned in a GstDiscovererInfo structure.

Details

struct GstDiscoverer

struct GstDiscoverer;

The GstDiscoverer structure.

Since 0.10.31


gst_discoverer_new ()

GstDiscoverer *     gst_discoverer_new                  (GstClockTime timeout,

Creates a new GstDiscoverer with the provided timeout.

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]

Since 0.10.31


gst_discoverer_start ()

void                gst_discoverer_start                (GstDiscoverer *discoverer);

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. [transfer full]

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.
