I am woking on a gstreamer project and have a problem.
I have pipeline set up and I have used the following to monitor the data passing through it:
static void onVideoHandoff( GstElement *object, GstBuffer *buffer, gpointer user_data )
{
//blah..blah
}
GstElement *identity = gst_element_factory_make("identity", "identity");
g_signal_connect( identity, "handoff", G_CALLBACK(onVideoHandoff), this);
The problem I'm having is that in my onVideoHandoff(..) function when I get the size of the 'buffer' (thisPacketSize = GST_BUFFER_SIZE(buffer);) it is always the same size no matter what type of video frame is going through the pipeline. (I would expect it to be smaller for delta frames etc but its always about 2MB).
I'm thinking that this is because the onVideoHandoff function is called after the video has been decoded and that the buffer size is always the same as it is about to be writen on screen.
is this correct??
I think I need to monitor the data when it is going through my decoder element.
My decoder element is set up like so depending in the type needed:
decoder = gst_element_factory_make("ffdec_mjpeg", "decoder"); OR
decoder = gst_element_factory_make("ffdec_mpeg4", "decoder"); OR
decoder = gst_element_factory_make("ffdec_h264", "decoder"); OR
I'm trying to attach an identity element like above but whatever I have tried has failed. I have tried the following:
g_signal_connect (decoder, "new-decoded-pad", G_CALLBACK (cb_newpad), NULL);....
g_signal_connect( decoder, "handoff", G_CALLBACK(cb_handoff), this)
etc but I do not really know the proper way to do this. (the footprint of the callback function etc)
Can anyone help me??
