Regarding GStreamer usage for multiple sessions
Locked
 
|
Hi,
I'm planning to develop an application using gstreamer that will download multiple video files simultaneously and decode them or edit those files. My doubt is whether G-streamer APIs are re-entrant? Whether using gstreamer api's by multiple video sessions simultaneously create any issues?
Please reply at the earliest so that I can explore more on gstreamer. If gstreamer cannot support this, I may need to explore on other solutions available. Thanks, Regards,

If you’re talking about having multiple
pipelines in the same app (one per file), you can definitely do that! Matt From: shibin k

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. I understood that with mutiple pipelines, we can achieve multiple video sessions. But if I've hundreds of subscribers trying to download and decode/parse same or multiple video files simultaneously, we will end up creating lot of pipelines and in effect lot of threads right? This will effect the performance, isn't it? Please let me know whether gstreamer framework is scalable to achieve the scenario I've mentioned here and whether the performance will be hit during such scenario?

One for all: http://www.buzztard.org/index.php/Main_Page Afaik limits are given on how well are the custom elements in your pipeline written and on your system capacity. For instance, you may have custom -and not well designed- codec elements or something coming from gst-plugins-bad (I'm not saying all the stuff there is bad, but imo it's not granted to be in a good shape).

Hi,
The problem is that we may need to scale our applications to support thousands of subscribers simultaneously. i.e, 1000s of subscribers will try to download different video files and feed to the gstreamer framework for decoding/parsing of these files. So if I need the same kind of pipeline that will just decode one video format and do something for all these video files, then do I need to create separate pipelines for all these files.
Our scenario is that we may need to support decoding/parsing of these thousands of files (Or even more) simultaneously and if we need to create one pipeline per file, we'll end up creating a huge number of threads (one per pipeline) which will not be feasible. Please let me know whether this kind of scenario can be supported using gstreamer and if yes, plz suggest me the best way to achieve this.

If it's the case, maybe you need to get a 21st century system (or later 20th) ;) . > Please let me know whether this > kind of scenario can be supported using gstreamer and if yes, plz suggest me > the best way to achieve this. if you don't need to transcode on-the-fly (that is, you're fine with the codecs the original file contains) the overhead generated from the pipeline should be minimal, so I'd suggest you to definitely go that way. If you want to transcode, you can just pre-process the files as soon as you get them so to always get consistent codecs. In case you really want to transcode on the fly, be prepared and get a really powerful system (and lightspeed codecs as well).
