[gst-devel] dv1394src dropped iso packet C vs gst-launch

[Stefan de Konink]

Hi,

After trying to produce some experimental code to get highlevel code into
low level code. I got stuck on a repeating kernel message. Comparing both
debugtraces a DISCONT eventhandler is created for the gst-launch code. I
suspect this behavior prevents the /var/log/messages to be filed with:
ieee1394: dropped iso packet

What is the way to prevent this? From the kino list I got I should
move to libiec61883, but since this isn't in Gstreamer, what is an another
solution?


Greetings,

Debug from gst-launch:

I'm trying to make the following launchcode in C:
gst-launch-0.8 dv1394src ! dvdec

Based on the hello.c I end up with:
#include <gst/gst.h>

/*
 * Global objects are usually a bad thing. For the purpose of this
 * example, we will use them, however.
 */

GstElement *pipeline, *source, *decoder, *sink;

int
main (int   argc,
      char *argv[])
{
  GMainLoop *loop;
  GstCaps *caps;

  /* initialize GStreamer */
  gst_init (&argc, &argv);
  loop = g_main_loop_new (NULL, FALSE);

  /* create elements */
  pipeline = gst_pipeline_new ("lineconnection");
  source = gst_element_factory_make ("dv1394src", "dv-source");
  decoder = gst_element_factory_make ("dvdec", "dv-decoder");
  //sink = gst_element_factory_make ("xvimagesink", "video-out");
  if (!pipeline || !source || !decoder) {
    g_print ("One element could not be created\n");
    return -1;
  }

  /* put all elements in a bin */
  gst_bin_add_many (GST_BIN (pipeline), source, decoder, NULL);


  caps = gst_caps_new_full (
      gst_structure_new ("video/x-dv",
                         "format", G_TYPE_STRING, "PAL",
                         "systemstream", G_TYPE_BOOLEAN, 1,
                         NULL),
      gst_structure_new ("video/x-dv",
                         "format", G_TYPE_STRING, "PAL",
                         "systemstream", G_TYPE_BOOLEAN, 1,
                         NULL),
      NULL);


  gst_element_link_pads_filtered(source, "src", decoder, "sink", caps);

  /* Now set to playing and iterate. */
  g_print ("Setting to PLAYING\n");
  gst_element_set_state (pipeline, GST_STATE_PLAYING);
  g_print ("Running\n");
  g_main_loop_run (loop);

  /* clean up nicely */
  g_print ("Returned, stopping playback\n");
  gst_element_set_state (pipeline, GST_STATE_NULL);
  g_print ("Deleting pipeline\n");
  gst_object_unref (GST_OBJECT (pipeline));

  return 0;
