OK, thanks for continuing to look into it! In case it helps: Below is a Python script + Gstreamer lib where setting the URL property behaves as expected. It just toggles between playing two video clips, setting the URL property when the 'about-to-finish' event fires. Not sure if this will be of any use, but it might? I ran this script w/ Ubuntu 16.04 and GStreamer 1.8.2, which is a different system than the one I originally asked about. I have confirmed that running Gambas 3.9.0 on the same system that the Python script below runs doesn't behave as expected.
Thanks again! <code> #!/usr/bin/env python import sys, os import gi gi.require_version('Gst', '1.0') gi.require_version('Gtk', '3.0') gi.require_version('GstVideo', '1.0') from gi.repository import Gst, GObject, Gtk # Needed for window.get_xid(), xvimagesink.set_window_handle(), respectively: from gi.repository import GdkX11, GstVideo class GTK_Main(object): def __init__(self): window = Gtk.Window(Gtk.WindowType.TOPLEVEL) window.set_title("Video-Player") window.set_default_size(500, 400) window.connect("destroy", Gtk.main_quit, "WM destroy") vbox = Gtk.VBox() window.add(vbox) hbox = Gtk.HBox() vbox.pack_start(hbox, False, False, 0) self.entry = Gtk.Entry() hbox.add(self.entry) self.button = Gtk.Button("Start") hbox.pack_start(self.button, False, False, 0) self.button.connect("clicked", self.start_stop) self.movie_window = Gtk.DrawingArea() vbox.add(self.movie_window) window.show_all() self.iPos = 0 self.player = Gst.ElementFactory.make("playbin", "player") bus = self.player.get_bus() bus.add_signal_watch() bus.enable_sync_message_emission() bus.connect("message", self.on_message) bus.connect("sync-message::element", self.on_sync_message) self.player.connect("about-to-finish", self.finished) def finished(self, player): print "About to Finish" if self.iPos == 0: self.player.set_property("uri", "file:///home/chris/Desktop/test5.mp4" ) self.iPos = 1 else: self.player.set_property("uri", "file:///home/chris/Desktop/output.mp4" ) self.iPos = 0 def start_stop(self, w): if self.button.get_label() == "Start": filepath = self.entry.get_text().strip() if os.path.isfile(filepath): filepath = os.path.realpath(filepath) self.button.set_label("Stop") self.player.set_property("uri", "file:///home/chris/Desktop/output.mp4" ) self.player.set_state(Gst.State.PLAYING) else: self.player.set_state(Gst.State.NULL) self.button.set_label("Start") def on_message(self, bus, message): t = message.type if t == Gst.MessageType.EOS: self.player.set_state(Gst.State.NULL) self.button.set_label("Start") elif t == Gst.MessageType.ERROR: self.player.set_state(Gst.State.NULL) err, debug = message.parse_error() print "Error: %s" % err, debug self.button.set_label("Start") def on_sync_message(self, bus, message): if message.get_structure().get_name() == 'prepare-window-handle': imagesink = message.src imagesink.set_property("force-aspect-ratio", True) imagesink.set_window_handle(self.movie_window.get_property('window').get_xid()) GObject.threads_init() Gst.init(None) GTK_Main() Gtk.main() </code> -- View this message in context: http://gambas.8142.n7.nabble.com/MediaPlayer-bug-with-AboutToFinish-and-URL-tp57513p57595.html Sent from the gambas-user mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Gambas-user mailing list Gambas-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gambas-user
