The following functions allow you to detect the media type of an unknown stream.

typedef struct { /* private to the caller of the typefind function */ guint8 * (* peek) (gpointer data, gint64 offset, guint size); void (* suggest) (gpointer data, guint probability, const GstCaps * caps); gpointer data; /* optional */ guint64 (* get_length) (gpointer data); } GstTypeFind;
Object that stores typefind callbacks. To use with GstTypeFindFactory.
|
Method to peek data. |
|
Method to suggest GstCaps with a given probability. |
gpointer |
The data used by the caller of the typefinding function. |
|
Returns the length of current data. |
void (*GstTypeFindFunction) (GstTypeFind *find, gpointer data);
A function that will be called by typefinding.
|
A GstTypeFind structure |
|
optionnal data to pass to the function |
typedef enum { GST_TYPE_FIND_MINIMUM = 1, GST_TYPE_FIND_POSSIBLE = 50, GST_TYPE_FIND_LIKELY = 80, GST_TYPE_FIND_NEARLY_CERTAIN = 99, GST_TYPE_FIND_MAXIMUM = 100 } GstTypeFindProbability;
The probability of the typefind function. Higher values have more certainty in doing a reliable typefind.
guint8 * gst_type_find_peek (GstTypeFind *find, gint64 offset, guint size);
Returns the size
bytes of the stream to identify beginning at offset. If
offset is a positive number, the offset is relative to the beginning of the
stream, if offset is a negative number the offset is relative to the end of
the stream. The returned memory is valid until the typefinding function
returns and must not be freed.
|
The GstTypeFind object the function was called with |
|
The offset |
|
The number of bytes to return |
Returns : |
the requested data, or NULL if that data is not available. |
void gst_type_find_suggest (GstTypeFind *find, guint probability, const GstCaps *caps);
If a GstTypeFindFunction calls this function it suggests the caps with the given probability. A GstTypeFindFunction may supply different suggestions in one call. It is up to the caller of the GstTypeFindFunction to interpret these values.
|
The GstTypeFind object the function was called with |
|
The probability in percent that the suggestion is right |
|
The fixed GstCaps to suggest |
void gst_type_find_suggest_simple (GstTypeFind *find, guint probability, const char *media_type, const char *fieldname, ...);
If a GstTypeFindFunction calls this function it suggests the caps with the given probability. A GstTypeFindFunction may supply different suggestions in one call. It is up to the caller of the GstTypeFindFunction to interpret these values.
This function is similar to gst_type_find_suggest()
, only that instead of
passing a GstCaps argument you can create the caps on the fly in the same
way as you can with gst_caps_new_simple()
.
Make sure you terminate the list of arguments with a NULL argument and that the values passed have the correct type (in terms of width in bytes when passed to the vararg function - this applies particularly to gdouble and guint64 arguments).
|
The GstTypeFind object the function was called with |
|
The probability in percent that the suggestion is right |
|
the media type of the suggested caps |
|
first field of the suggested caps, or NULL |
|
additional arguments to the suggested caps in the same format as the
arguments passed to gst_structure_new() (ie. triplets of field name,
field GType and field value)
|
Since 0.10.20
guint64 gst_type_find_get_length (GstTypeFind *find);
Get the length of the data stream.
|
The GstTypeFind the function was called with |
Returns : |
The length of the data stream, or 0 if it is not available. |
gboolean gst_type_find_register (GstPlugin *plugin, const gchar *name, guint rank, GstTypeFindFunction func, gchar **extensions, const GstCaps *possible_caps, gpointer data, GDestroyNotify data_notify);
Registers a new typefind function to be used for typefinding. After registering this function will be available for typefinding. This function is typically called during an element's plugin initialization.
|
A GstPlugin, or NULL for a static typefind function (note that passing NULL only works in GStreamer 0.10.16 and later) |
|
The name for registering |
|
The rank (or importance) of this typefind function |
|
The GstTypeFindFunction to use |
|
Optional extensions that could belong to this type |
|
Optionally the caps that could be returned when typefinding succeeds |
|
Optional user data. This user data must be available until the plugin is unloaded. |
|
a GDestroyNotify that will be called on data when the plugin
is unloaded.
|
Returns : |
TRUE on success, FALSE otherwise |
