[gst-devel] Gstreamer and Gtk

[E. Westbrook]

One of my experiments recently was using gtk to create the window that
xvimagesink would play into, rather than creating a window from hand with
XCreateSimpleWindow().  I got it working after learning how to get the X11
window ID out of a GtkWidget.

The GDK_WINDOW_XWINDOW(widget->window) convenience macro was what helped get
me unstuck on this one.

Just use that macro to retrieve the widget's X11 window ID, then pass it to
the gst_x_overlay_set_window_id() function when asked to by the
prepare-xwindow-id message from a given xvimagesink.

I could probably whip up a trivial demonstration case if that doesn't
explain well.  And please correct if I'm misunderstanding the question, as
always.

Hope that helps,
E. Westbrook
