Helper class for using a GstAppSrc.
Appsrc is an element that can be used by applications to insert data into a GStreamer pipeline. Unlike most GStreamer elements, appsrc provides external API functions. This class exports those API functions in the bindings and makes it easy to implement a custom source.
Before operating appsrc, the caps() must be set to a fixed caps describing the format of the data that will be pushed with appsrc. An exception to this is when pushing buffers with unknown caps, in which case no caps should be set. This is typically true of file-like sources that push raw byte buffers.
The main way of handing data to the appsrc element is by calling the pushBuffer() method. This will put the buffer onto a queue from which appsrc will read from in its streaming thread. It is important to note that data transport will not happen from the thread that performed the pushBuffer() call.
maxBytes() controls how much data can be queued in appsrc before appsrc considers the queue full. A filled internal queue will always cause enoughData() to be called, which signals the application that it should stop pushing data into appsrc. Use setBlock() to cause appsrc to block the pushBuffer() method until free data becomes available again.
When the internal queue is running out of data, the needData() function is called, which signals the application that it should start pushing more data into appsrc.
In addition to the needData() and enoughData() functions, appsrc can also call the seekData() function when streamMode() is set to AppStreamTypeSeekable or AppStreamTypeRandomAccess. The seekData() argument will contain the new desired position in the stream expressed in the unit set with setFormat(). After seekData() has been called, the application should push buffers from the new position.
Appsrc can operate in two different ways:
In all modes, the size() should contain the total stream size in bytes. Setting the size is mandatory in the AppStreamTypeRandomAccess mode. For the AppStreamTypeStream and AppStreamTypeSeekable modes, setting the size is optional but recommended.
When the application is finished pushing data into appsrc, it should call endOfStream(). After this call, no more buffers can be pushed into appsrc until a flushing seek happened or the state of the appsrc has gone through READY.
The actuall appsrc element can be retrieved with element() and set with setElement(). It is not necessary to set an appsrc, as this class will create one as soon as it is needed.

ElementPtr QGst::Utils::ApplicationSource::element | ( | ) | const |
Definition at line 105 of file applicationsource.cpp.
void QGst::Utils::ApplicationSource::setElement | ( | const ElementPtr & | appsrc) |
Sets the appsrc element that will be used by this class

CapsPtr QGst::Utils::ApplicationSource::caps | ( | ) | const |
Definition at line 119 of file applicationsource.cpp.
void QGst::Utils::ApplicationSource::setCaps | ( | const CapsPtr & | caps) |
Sets the capabilities of this source. After calling this method, this appsrc will only be able to produce buffers with these capabilities. caps must be fixed and the caps on the buffers must match the caps or left NULL.

void QGst::Utils::ApplicationSource::setLatency | ( | quint64 | min, |
quint64 | max | ||
) |
Configure the minimum and maximum latency. If min is set to -1, the default latency calculations for pseudo-live sources will be used.

qint64 QGst::Utils::ApplicationSource::size | ( | ) | const |
Definition at line 162 of file applicationsource.cpp.
void QGst::Utils::ApplicationSource::setSize | ( | qint64 | size) |
Set the size of the stream in bytes. A value of -1 means that the size is not known.

AppStreamType QGst::Utils::ApplicationSource::streamType | ( | ) | const |
Definition at line 175 of file applicationsource.cpp.
void QGst::Utils::ApplicationSource::setStreamType | ( | AppStreamType | type) |
Set the stream type on appsrc. For seekable streams, the seekData() method must be reimplemented.

quint64 QGst::Utils::ApplicationSource::maxBytes | ( | ) | const |
Definition at line 189 of file applicationsource.cpp.
void QGst::Utils::ApplicationSource::setMaxBytes | ( | quint64 | max) |
Set the maximum amount of bytes that can be queued in appsrc. After the maximum amount of bytes are queued, the enoughData() method of this class will be called.

bool QGst::Utils::ApplicationSource::blockEnabled | ( | ) | const |
Definition at line 202 of file applicationsource.cpp.
void QGst::Utils::ApplicationSource::enableBlock | ( | bool | enable) |
Enables or disables blocking calls to pushBuffer() when the maximum amount of bytes are queued.

void QGst::Utils::ApplicationSource::setLive | ( | bool | islive) |
Sets whether appsrc will act as a live source

void QGst::Utils::ApplicationSource::setMinPercent | ( | uint | min) |
Sets the minimum percent of maxBytes() that when reached, needData() will be called
Definition at line 233 of file applicationsource.cpp.
FlowReturn QGst::Utils::ApplicationSource::pushBuffer | ( | const BufferPtr & | buffer) |
Adds a buffer to the queue of buffers that the appsrc element will push to its source pad. When the block property is TRUE, this function can block until free space becomes available in the queue.
Definition at line 254 of file applicationsource.cpp.
FlowReturn QGst::Utils::ApplicationSource::endOfStream | ( | ) |
Indicates to the appsrc element that the last buffer queued in the element is the last buffer of the stream.
Definition at line 263 of file applicationsource.cpp.
|
protectedvirtual |
Called when the appsrc needs more data. A buffer or EOS should be pushed to appsrc from this thread or another thread. length is just a hint and when it is set to -1, any number of bytes can be pushed into appsrc.
Definition at line 272 of file applicationsource.cpp.
|
protectedvirtual |
Called when appsrc has enough data. It is recommended that the application stops calling pushBuffer() until the needData() method is called again to avoid excessive buffer queueing.
Definition at line 277 of file applicationsource.cpp.
|
protectedvirtual |
Called when a seek should be performed to the offset. The next pushBuffer() should produce buffers from the new offset. This method is only called for seekable stream types.
