[06:44] omega (omega at omegacs.net) joined #gstreamer.
[06:47] <taaz> hey omega 
[06:53] ajmitch (me at p22-max7.dun.ihug.co.nz) joined #gstreamer.
[07:15] ajmitch (me at p22-max7.dun.ihug.co.nz) left irc: http://www.freedevelopers.net
[07:59] dichro (dichro at foo.optusnet.com.au) joined #gstreamer.
[08:05] <dichro> does anybody (awake :) know how an application should extract frames from a pipeline?
[08:05] <chillywilly> nope
[08:05] <chillywilly> ;)
[08:09] <dichro> ah well :)
[08:13] <taaz> extract?
[08:14] <taaz> it depends if an element outputs frames or not.  for instance, most things that connect to videosink are just passing frames to it
[08:14] <dichro> well - I have video running through a bunch of plugins, but I don't want to sink it in a plugin - I want it delivered to my application. is there an easier way to achieve this than writing an application specific plugin?
[08:15] <taaz> i have no idea ;)
[08:16] <taaz> you don't have to write a "plugin" you just need to hook to a proper object i think...
[08:16] Action: dichro nods
[08:16] <dichro> I think what I want is for fakesink to send a signal with the buffer that it has just received
[08:17] <dichro> but it doesn't do that. I'm going to /make/ it do that, but I'll feel silly if there's an equally easy and already existing technique that I've overlooked.
[08:17] <dichro> (that is, of course, assuming that I can get the CVS tree to build. grr. )
[08:18] <taaz> i'm not sure if there are any examples on embedding gstreamer 
[08:18] <taaz> i'm sorta doing that now too ;)  but i'm just dealing with the front of the pipeline pushing data into it
[08:19] <dichro> how are you doing that?
[08:22] <taaz> i'm not yet
[09:08] GUITAR_SP (. at ACB278BD.ipt.aol.com) joined #gstreamer.

[09:30] dobey (dobey at dreadnought.ximian.com) left irc: [x]chat
[10:06] <dichro> hmm. anybody using the jpegenc plugin? I get FPEs, and I note that the test stuff has it commented out...
[10:12] ajmitch (me at p38-max5.dun.ihug.co.nz) joined #gstreamer.

[16:37] _gst_newt_ joined #gstreamer.
[16:52] <taaz> hey _gst_newt_, you missed drunknap
[16:53] <wtay> yo taaz :-)
[16:53] <taaz> yo wtay, fix that backlog of doc failure messages ;)
[16:53] <wtay> what did we miss, taaz?
[16:53] <wtay> I will
[16:53] <taaz> miss?  you missed an empty room
[16:54] <wtay> and drunknap apparently...
[16:54] <taaz> hack i dunno... i've been doing 14 hour days on other work... no time for gstreamer :(
[16:54] Action: wtay is apt-getting 130 packages...
[16:54] <wtay> oh
[16:55] <taaz> well... i guess i did make a quick start into the oms port to gstreamer
[16:55] <wtay> got anything you can show?
[16:55] <taaz> heh... not at all
[16:56] <taaz> i was mostly just figuring out which code i could rm -rf and which i could keep around
[16:57] <taaz> lot of duplicated stuff
[16:57] <wtay> hmm
[16:57] <wtay> I'm going to give the bonobo component another try soon...
[17:02] Nick change: taaz -> taaz-away
[17:38] holger_ (holger at Q.convergence.de) left irc: Client Exiting
[18:08] thomas (thomas at urgent.rug.ac.be) joined #gstreamer.
[18:08] <thomas> ok, here I am
[18:08] <thomas> (I'm not used to IRC-ing)
[18:08] <thomas> hello ? anyone around ?
[18:09] <wtay> hi
[18:09] <wtay> you're the one with compile problems?
[18:09] <thomas> yes
[18:09] <thomas> I've done a succesful compile on one of the machines just now
[18:09] <wtay> ok good
[18:10] <thomas> but I had to re-install a lot of rpm's to get where I am now
[18:10] <thomas> I just did one of the tests
[18:10] sienap (synap at ipc379c032.dial.wxs.nl) joined #gstreamer.
[18:10] sienap (synap at ipc379c032.dial.wxs.nl) left irc: sienap has no reason
[18:10] <thomas> and it worked
[18:10] <wtay> very cool
[18:10] <thomas> I'm still wondering why it doesn't work on the other two machines
[18:10] <thomas> But I guess I could start working on it now
[18:11] <thomas> Is there any more up to date info on what types of plugins are available now ?
[18:11] <wtay> I had trouble with the #define WIN32 sometime too
[18:11] <wtay> hmm, sec..
[18:11] <thomas> oh, well, can I just turn off the WIN32 define ? At the moment I'm only going to do audio stuff, so...
[18:11] <wtay> ok
[18:12] <wtay> the WIN32 define is needed if you want the DivX stuff...
[18:12] <wtay> gstwindec etc...
[18:12] <wtay> can't find a list of supported types...
[18:12] <thomas> ok, so where can I turn it off ? in the configure script ?
[18:12] <wtay> no, not yet...
[18:12] <thomas> ok, in one of the makefiles then ?
[18:12] <wtay> just not compile the stuff in avi/windec or something
[18:13] <wtay> yeah, plugins/avi/Makefile.am
[18:13] <thomas> ok, i'll try that first.
[18:13] <thomas> another thing I was wondering...
[18:13] <wtay> yes?
[18:13] <thomas> if you create a pipe, the idea is that you iterate the pipe manually if you don't use threads
[18:13] <wtay> yes
[18:13] <thomas> that way audio starts flowing from the disk src through the decoder to the audio sink
[18:13] <wtay> exactly
[18:13] <thomas> but how big a chunk of audio is being processed in one iteration ?
[18:14] <wtay> it can be controlled with a property in the disksrc
[18:14] <wtay> it defaults to 4096
[18:14] <thomas> as in bytes, or samples ?
[18:14] <wtay> bytes
[18:15] <thomas> ok... I'll try working on it tonight or tomorrow
[18:15] <wtay> with the bytesperread property this can be changed
[18:15] <wtay> thomas: what are your plans?
[18:15] <thomas> one other thing I was wondering...
[18:15] <thomas> I'll tell about my plans first
[18:15] <thomas> they're pretty simple
[18:15] <thomas> I wrote an mpeg mixer (in the subband domain) for my thesis two years ago
[18:15] <thomas> I want to make it more general and more stable
[18:16] <thomas> and I was looking for a clean platform/interface to do it with
[18:16] <wtay> nice
[18:16] <thomas> and I was intrigued by the simplicity of gstreamer
[18:16] <thomas> (too bad the installation is hence more difficult !)
[18:16] <thomas> anyway...
[18:16] <wtay> yeah, sorry about that
[18:16] <thomas> I was wondering if it would be possible/advisable to write different kinds of mpeg plugins
[18:16] <thomas> meaning, right now the plugins convert to/from raw pcm samples
[18:17] <thomas> while it would be also possible to convert to/from subband samples
[18:17] <wtay> very cool
[18:17] <thomas> I don't know if it would give a speed increase on the gstreamer platform
[18:17] <wtay> and easy to intergrate in gstreamer
[18:17] <thomas> but it did a lot for my thesis
[18:17] <wtay> what exactly does it do?
[18:17] <thomas> basically, the mpeg filterbanks decompose the audio into 32 equally wide sub bands
[18:18] <wtay> you mix the subbands instead of the samples then?
[18:18] <thomas> (are you familiar with mpeg audio on a technical level ?)
[18:18] <thomas> yes, that's what it did.
[18:18] <thomas> Hence, you bypass a lot of the extra filtering.
[18:18] <wtay> ok, I get the idea then
[18:18] <thomas> And theoretically you also improve the quality a little bit.
[18:18] <wtay> in gstreamer you can easily add this because there are no fixed media types
[18:18] <thomas> Which shouldn't be noticeable, except when you start chaining
[18:19] <thomas> I should look into it.
[18:19] <thomas> although I don't know how useful it would be today.
[18:19] <thomas> first of all computers are faster.
[18:19] <thomas> and second I'm wanting to start switching to ogg anyway.
[18:19] <thomas> But if it might help for certain applications...
[18:19] <wtay> it could be very usefull still...
[18:19] <wtay> yeah
[18:19] <thomas> how could it be useful for other things ?
[18:19] <wtay> I think mp3 isn't going away that fast..
[18:20] <thomas> yes, that's true.
[18:20] <thomas> but I don't know how much I want to go into the low level code again.
[18:20] <wtay> and some people are interested in mp3 mixing anyway
[18:20] <thomas> I remember at the end of my thesis my code started getting dirty as hell
[18:20] <wtay> heh
[18:20] <thomas> but I should look into it I guess... it would be more efficient to re-do it in the gstreamer model.
[18:21] <thomas> but that probably depends on the overall efficiency of the whole gstreamer platform.
[18:21] <thomas> Which I'm about to test.
[18:21] <thomas> Does it add a lot of overhead compared to direct coded solutions ?
[18:21] <wtay> overhead of gstreamer is untested but assumed very low
[18:22] <wtay> most of the buffer passing involves only one extra function call 
[18:22] <wtay> if you use cothreads, overhead is about 600 cycles...
[18:22] <thomas> ok, then hopefully I will be very pleased with the result !
[18:22] <thomas> I'll start by keeping it simple...
[18:22] <thomas> I don't know too much yet about threading, so...
[18:23] <thomas> in any case, thanks for the extra help and insight !
[18:23] <wtay> ok, if you have any trouble come back again
[18:23] <wtay> gstreamer is under heavy construction so...
[18:23] hadess (hadess at pc213-gui2.cable.ntl.com) joined #gstreamer.

[18:27] <hadess> we've been visiting copenhagen yesterday with erik, zaheer, christian and the others
[18:27] <wtay> anything interesting?
[18:29] <wtay> yeah, we too :-)
[18:29] <wtay> and so did richard 'cause we saw him wandering around there too :)
[18:30] <hadess> well, there was about 10 of us =), and 20 at the beginning, but we split up
[18:31] <wtay> well..

[20:43] <wtay> ChiefHighwater: have you got one?
[20:43] <ChiefHighwater> i labled mine to get the other pics straight
[20:43] <ChiefHighwater> so, yup
[20:43] <wtay> got it online?

[20:56] <hadess> you know what ? i had to buy toothbrush and everything back here
[20:56] <wtay> luckily that pic doesn't say who was pissed the night before :-)
[20:56] <hadess> forgot it in the bathroom :P
[20:56] <wtay> doh
[20:56] <ChiefHighwater> hehe
[20:57] <hadess> wtay: like "all the ones that have names on them" ?
[20:57] <wtay> :-)
[21:11] <hadess> wtay: can you try to /msg me ?
[21:12] <hadess> cool, i works, thanks
[21:12] <wtay> ?
[21:12] <hadess> use a separate window for /msg and /dialog
[21:58] Toastie (future at 62.90.60.187) joined #gstreamer.
[21:59] <wtay> yo
[22:00] <Toastie> hey
[22:00] <Toastie> Corrected the FAQ a bit.
[22:01] <wtay> aha!
[22:01] Action: wtay tries to find the FAQ...
[22:01] <Toastie> on the Wiki
[22:02] <wtay> yeah, If I only knew what was in the FAQ before :-)
[22:02] <Toastie> I added a part about aRts
[22:03] <Toastie> It's a pity we're not innovating anything here, isn't it?
[22:03] <wtay> I noticed...
[22:03] <wtay> define innovate
[22:04] <Toastie> The infrastructure (aRts) exists, there were talks in KDE lists about writing C bindings -- and still, someone feels they need Gstreamer
[22:04] <hadess> Toastie: don't worry, this was _heavily_ talked about in guadec
[22:04] <wtay> aRts *is* different
[22:04] <Toastie> Maybe there should be some official page outlining the differences?
[22:05] <wtay> yeah, we talked a lot with stefan
[22:05] <wtay> good idea
[22:05] <dobey> heh
[22:05] <wtay> we are now actually integrating the two projects (arts in gst <-> gst in arts)
[22:05] <hadess> wtay: we even have photos of owen talking to stefan
[22:06] <wtay> yeah, we have proof
[22:06] <wtay> :-)
[22:06] <Toastie> Still, guys, what are the differences?
[22:06] <wtay> hmm
[22:07] <wtay> arts has no decent video support AFAIK
[22:07] <Toastie> What way do they support video?
[22:07] <wtay> it started as a synthesizer project and it is very good at that
[22:08] <wtay> Toastie: from what I heard, it is a hack
[22:08] <wtay> not sure though
[22:08] <wtay> I was too busy getting drunk :)
[22:08] <Toastie> So why not to extend aRts?
[22:08] <Toastie> how do you all guys get to Guadec?
[22:08] <hadess> http://gstreamer.net/guadec-pics/dscn0005.jpg <- found it !
[22:09] <wtay> Toastie: arts operates on a very low level (samples)
[22:09] <hadess> did richard commit the artsd plugin ?
[22:09] <wtay> yeah
[22:09] <hadess> coolness
[22:09] <wtay> we got it to wrok with the video player too
[22:09] <hadess> neat
[22:10] Action: dobey wonders if it works better on ppc yet
[22:10] <dobey> heh
[22:12] <hadess> no, not yet
[22:12] <hadess> but you can try the vlc client, it should work nicely
[22:13] <dobey> vlc?
[22:13] <dobey> can i play dvds on ppc with it?
[22:13] <hadess> i _think_

[22:55] <dobey> that trplayer thing might be useful though, the irc channel isn't
[22:55] <hadess> i'm useless :/
[22:56] <dobey> heh, nah
[22:56] <hadess> dobey: the irc channel is empty, isn't it

[00:01] <maYam> now i know why this has to be edited
[00:01] <wtay> oooh ac4 is out :-)
[00:02] <dobey> because of all the references to you that contained innuendo?

[00:03] <dobey> like "i'd like a desktop background of her" :-)
[00:03] <maYam> indd :)
[00:04] <dobey> and i would :-)
[00:04] <dobey> but that's pointless to say

[00:09] <wtay> talking to your GF in IRC is hardly a life, is it? :-)
[00:09] <dobey> yes
[00:10] <dobey> better than not having a GF to talk to anywhere
[00:10] <maYam> but you can get cybersex anywhere if that's what you mean ;)
[00:10] <wtay> doh
[00:10] <dobey> you offering?
[00:11] <dobey> and no, that isn't what i mean

[00:11] <dobey> see, you may be talking on irc
[00:11] <maYam> so what is it then?

[00:12] <maYam> social life = no life at all
[00:12] <dobey> oh, man
[00:12] <dobey> really?

[00:16] <dobey> hadess: that's hard to do when you enjoy your work, and have no way to get home other than a cab

[00:23] <hadess> dobey: oh, you don't like smoke...
[00:23] <wtay> dobey: what's so evil about that?
[00:24] <dobey> wtay: a) drunks b) smoke
[00:24] Action: hadess loves to be the drunk smoking =)
[00:24] <maYam> a life without bars is like a bar without beer
[00:24] <hadess> maYam: yah !

[00:26] Action: ChiefHighwater hides
[00:26] <ChiefHighwater> hehe
[00:26] <dobey> what hadess needs to do, is get is frenchy ass over here :-)
[00:27] <hadess> dobey: dude, i would go to smokey bars with drunk ppl, but i would protect you from the drunks (at most)
[00:27] Action: wtay sees hadess taking dobey to smokey bars where they drink and sing 'till the suns comes up...
[00:27] <maYam>  hadess by staying away
[00:28] <dobey> i'm not worried about the drunks, bars are not a good place to look for women
[00:28] <hadess> maYam: for example =)
[00:28] <maYam> ;)
[00:28] <wtay> dobey: how would you know?
[00:28] <maYam> right, dobey.. hmmmmm????
[00:28] <hadess> dobey: it helps meet ppl, other guys that help you know the town better..
[00:28] <dobey> wtay: i went to a bar a couple weeks ago, guess how many women there were
[00:29] <ChiefHighwater> 2, both waiting tables

[00:29] <wtay> dobey: you need to get in touch with some people one way or another
[00:29] <maYam> well what did you expect in a karaoke bar?
[00:29] <dobey> wtay: pref !bar
[00:29] <hadess> dobey: there are no women in my pub, but i talk to the guys, and we go over to another bar with girls
[00:29] <dobey> bah
[00:29] <dobey> i'm going to a rave saturday
[00:30] <maYam> hadess: the classic approach..  at least that's something..
[00:30] <wtay> usually a bar where you can dance has lots of girls
[00:30] <dobey> that's not a bar
[00:30] <dobey> heh
[00:30] <maYam> hadess: you should have been there the last night (where were you anyway?)
[00:30] <hadess> maYam: i drink (nearly) every day at the pub =)
[00:30] <dobey> like, bah, n/m
[00:31] <hadess> maYam: with bex, tigert and jimmac to a turkish restaurant and then we didn't see anybody
[00:31] <maYam> hmm..  we went to a creepy bar...
[00:31] <maYam> with weird women..
[00:31] <maYam> you'd have loved it!
[00:31] <wtay> oh yes
[00:31] <hadess> wtay: huh, are you gonna edit the logs so i can say the rest of the story ?
