It looks as if the about-to-finish signal in playbin2 is for gapless
playback, assuming that the signal provides enough time for playbin2 to open the next sound file and that playbin2 finishes playing the current sound file even though I assigned a new sound file to its uri. The documentation warns that playbin2 is currently unstable. Indeed, when I try to use it, it doesn't actually play anything. It finishes "playing" immediately after starting. Does anyone know when approximately playbin2 will be available? I am using gst version (0, 10, 18, 0) on Kubuntu. -- Jeffrey Barish ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ gstreamer-devel mailing list [hidden email] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gstreamer-devel |

OK, let me try this one: Does anyone whether my theories about the way playbin2 works are correct? -- Jeffrey Barish ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ gstreamer-devel mailing list [hidden email] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gstreamer-devel |

If you have some issues with specific files (where it works with playbin but not with playbin2) please file a bug. Before that you might also want to test playbin2 from a more recent release (0.10.21 or 0.10.20) where your issues might have been fixed. Currently more files/streams play correctly with playbin2 than with playbin. -- Edward Hervey <[hidden email]> BilboEd ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ gstreamer-devel mailing list [hidden email] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gstreamer-devel |

Thanks for the confirmation. I will try a newer version as soon as it appears in a Debian package. With the version that I have, a second after I set the state to STATE_PLAYING, the state is (<enum GST_STATE_CHANGE_FAILURE of type GstStateChangeReturn>, <enum GST_STATE_READY of type GstState>, <enum GST_STATE_PLAYING of type GstState>) -- Jeffrey Barish ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ gstreamer-devel mailing list [hidden email] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gstreamer-devel |
