[gst-devel] GSoC 2010

[Stefan Kost]

hi,

we have 5 students working over the next month on gstreamer releated projects as
part of googles summer of code program. Please everyone help the student to get
started, join the discussion, try & review their code.

Thanks!
Stefan


Permit Pitivi users to add effects to the videos they are editing.
Student: Thibault Saunier / thiblahute
Mentor: Edward Hervey / bilboed
Abstract:
Add the support for effects in the Pitivi Video editor. The main goal is to
permit user to add effects to the video they are editing. I will permit to add
all kind of effect easily in Pitivi and implement the most important ones.

Gstreamer VDPAU support
Student: Carl-Anton Ingmarsson / satis
Mentor: David Schleef / ds
Abstract:
Many of todays video cards have built in decoders for a lot of different
formats. By adding support for these decoders to Gstreamer, we'll enable
playback of HD content on CPU limited hardware where it otherwise would have
been impossible. It will also help to unburden the CPU on more powerful hardware
so that you for example could compile the Linux kernel while watching your
favorite movie.

Jokosher-PiTiVi Integration
Student: Andi Miller / Sylnai
Mentor:	Laszlo Pandy / laszlok
Abstract:
Integration to allow the Jokosher audio editor and PiTiVi video editors to be
used alongside each other with synchronised content.

iXMF
Student: Andre Dieb Martins / dieb_
Mentor: Thiago Sousa Santos / thiagoss
Abstract:
Interactive XMF (iXMF) is the world's first open interactive audio container
format. Designed by the gaming industry, it intends to standardize interoperable
interactive audio content. GStreamer currently doesn't support iXMF and having
iXMF/XMF support would be a great leap for GStreamer into the gaming market,
since it would pioneer a new important standard.

Video 3D support
Student: Martin Bisson / pogo11
Mentor: Stefan Kost / ensonic
Abstract:
The proposed project is to add support for stereoscopic video to GStreamer. This
support will come from three plugins: one merging two separate streams in a
single 3D stream, one splitting a 3D stream into two separate streams and third
one converting a 3D stream into an analglyph stream viewable with red-blue or
red-cyan glasses. Support for the Multiview Video Coding (MVC) of H.264/AVC will
also be added with encoder and decoder plugins.
