Hi,  Im interested about integrating Xwindow and gstreamer too, someone told me on irc we could using gst_bus_poll() to for getting the bus message inspite of using gmainloop. So we could get the XWindow event, and gstmessage on 1 loop. But i dont know for sure about it coz until now i never try it. Sorry i dont have any solution for ur problem about seeking problem. bounce bounce <bouncebounce@caramail.com> wrote:<blockquote class="replbq" style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"> Thanks for your reply. But I've some precision to give. I don't succeed to use "direcdrawsink" to output the video. But now, I'm developping temporarily on Cygwin and I'm using "ximagesrc" like sink and it's right. I will comeback with the directdrawsink later when I will have an update of Hummingbird Exceed. Next to begin with, I'm initializing the GStreamer's library with "gst_init_check". Next, I'm using "g_main_loop_new" to create a temporarily loop that I'm stopping when I detect a change of state on the bus to GST_STATE_PLAYING. I'm doing that because as I'm developping with Xwindow (which is not based on glib), and if the loop is keeping, it will block my GUI and I will not be able to manipulate the video. So, when I detect this change of state, I stop the loop and I use "XtAppAddTimeOut" to repeat some action on GUI like the update of a scalebar. That's the only way I found to allow the update of the scalebar ... I've another problem when I put the video on GST_STATE_PAUSED only. It's paused but when I do later a GSt_STATE_PLAYING, it's not playing but stays at pause. And the value returns by "gst_element_set_state" is "GST_STATE_CHANGE_ASYNC". Thus the problem will be perhaps caused by the pause of the video which happens asynchroneously in the background. An other precision, the use of "gst_element_seek(playbin, ...)" rather than "gst_element_seek(vsink, ...) " doesn't arrange the problem. And the use of "gst_element_seek_simple ()" rather than "gst_element_seek()" doesn't change the problem. Can the problem be corrected with a flush ? Do yiou have ideas about these problems ?
