Re: Openoffice and unsupported gstreamer 0.10 branch (for openoffice libavmediagst.so library)

2018-02-28 Thread Damjan Jovanovic
Unfortunately it looks like the problem is harder than just getting it to
build. Even after fixing some more APIs and getting it to play, a separate
player window is created. To get the player window to embed like it should,
we need to set the X window id on the GstVideoOverlay using
gst_video_overlay_set_window_handle() when a "prepare-window-handle" event
is delivered for which gst_is_video_overlay_prepare_window_handle_message()
returns true. But for some mysterious reason
gst_is_video_overlay_prepare_window_handle_message() never returns true.
Forcefully setting the X window id on all events does get it to embed,
badly, with lots of warnings, and the window gets distorted when scrolling
and doesn't respond to mouse clicks 🙈.

I thought it was obvious the acknowledgement was directed at Damjan.

Notwithstanding, unlike you, prior OO 'chairs' never even acknowledged
-- much less impulsed -- the gstreamer-1.0 request.

That's why I think you are doing great job, Peter.

Hello all,

What is the current status on 4.2.0?
I have seen one bug that fires when opening a document. We got more?

All the best

 I hope that current implementation still will hold several years

 Unfortunately I suppose I have no enough programming skills
 to understand how build system works and the difference between
 gstreamer-0.10 and 1.0 API/ABI .

2018-02-28 Thread Damjan Jovanovic
Thank you. The video plays, but in a separate window instead of being
embedded in the document. I'll continue trying.

Distributing the library separately from the rest of AOO would be
difficult. Binary compatibility between Ubuntu and Gentoo, bitness, trunk
vs 4.1.5. New UNO components also have to be registered in AOO somehow; I
only know how to do it with .component files at compile time.

It will likely only end up in SVN trunk, possibly version 4.2.0.

Re: Openoffice and unsupported gstreamer 0.10 branch (for openoffice libavmediagst.so library)

2018-02-28 Thread Torokhov Sergey
Hello,

I created simple presentation file with title and video frame
("Agent 237:operation barbershop" from Blender Animation Studio).

https://yadi.sk/d/shOKuCcS3StDk

The archive contains 327.odp and 327.webm files that must be placed in
the same directory before presentation file .odp is opening.

The video is playing automatically after pressing F5 key (fullscreen
presentation mode). Or after pressing "Play" button on the bar that
usually appears at the bottom then video-frame of presentation is
selected.
I't work for me in current Apache OpenOffice 4.1.5 and
gstreamer-plugins:0.10.

As I use Gentoo I installed "gst-plugins-meta:0.10" with next options:

USE="ffmpeg quicktime http wavpack dv dvb vcd musepack vpx oss libass
lame theora v4l" emerge gst-plugins-meta:0.10

Also I installed "gst-plugins-ivorbis:0.10" and
"gst-plugins-pango:0.10".


Could you also share rebuilded library for testing? Is it compatible
with current AOO 4.1.5 build?

Thank yo in advance.

Sergey

Hi-
Thanks in advance for your help. 

I am having no success at all downloading OpenOffice 4.1.5 for WINDOWS in 
English in either Chrome or IE on a Windows 10 Home system (ver. 1709) 64-bit

All it does on repeated attempts is tell me: 

This site can’t be reached
sourceforge.net took too long to respond.
I hope there is just a problem with the site today, and need your direction on 
this. 

Please advise ASAP. 

Thank you-

I've successfully patched our gstreamer plugin to build with gstreamer-1.0,
but how do I test it? Does someone have a sample document that uses
gstreamer?

The patch is attached for anyone interested. Parts may still be wrong, eg.
filter names. Changes between GStreamer 0.1 and 1.0 are documented here:

Re: Openoffice and unsupported gstreamer 0.10 branch (for openoffice libavmediagst.so library)

2018-02-28 Thread Damjan Jovanovic
Hi

I've begun having a look.

We currently test for gstreamer in configure.ac but don't use the result,
re-running pkg-config in a main/avmedia's makefile.

Changing the version number to 1.0 breaks the build due a missing header
file. Removing that "#include" gets it a little further, but it breaks due
to changed gstreamer API functions. There is also lots of warnings about
deprecated GDK functions. I'll continue trying later.

We should really get rid of gstreamer 0.1 ASAP one way or the other: given
how it's been unmaintained since 2013, it may well have security
vulnerabilities. We can't ship it to users since its license is
incompatible, but having users install it separately still invites trouble.
