I tried to look into bacon-video-widget.c and totem-object.c 1. seems bacon-video-widget.c is a clutter based backend for totem, it is possible to create other backend (follow the interface defined in bacon-video-widget.h); right?the backend should subclass from GtkWidget and implement the interface defined in bacon-video-widget.h.for example, we can implement another backend to render video directly to native window, like xvimagesink or waylandsink. the custom GtkWidget could be a GtkContainer which includes a GtkDrawing area for video rendering and some other buttons for control.here, I have some question against current Gtk/Gdk implementation. a GtkWidget/GdkWindow maps to a native window like XWindow/wl_surface, right? (Gtk isn't like Clutter to share the same XWindow/wl_surface for all the Actor of the same Stage, right?) 2. we can also implement another backend basing on gtkglsink to render video as texture.since gtkglsink draw video to the GtkGlArea, which is also a GtkWidget; what's the advantage comparing to rendering video directly to XWindow/wl_surface as xvimagesink/waylandsink does?Is it possible to draw controls on top of the video(GtkGlArea)? like the controls are drawn as ClutterActor on top of video. --------------------------------

(gst-vaapi used to be supported for rgbx frame, but disabled by default). so, I want to ask some questions: (let's consimer gtk+3 and wayland environments) option 1: Is there gtkwidget which can connect waylandsink?it means video frames can be directly sent to weston w/o compositiong inside app ( to avoid performance hit). option 2: Is it possible to draw dma_buf fd as texture in gtk context?I noticed that there is gtkglsink/glupload, however, I'm not sure whether they support wayland/weston; and I'm still not clear how they interact with gtk widget. thanks. --------------------------------
