Re: Mediaplayer/GStreamer/Tracker: adding new file types?

To index the files try this (the example is for matroska): http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=358304postcount=30 And if you have installed the necessary gstreamer module to play the files, I think that the mediaplayer should be smart enough to use that module.

And MAFW is already using playbin2. So you only need to configure tracker to index those .ts files in order to show them as video files.

Re: Mediaplayer/GStreamer/Tracker: adding new file types?
Unfortunatley, I'm running into two issues with these solutions: 1. After registering the MIME type, it still doesn't show up. Probably because of http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24690 (.ts files are incorrectly detected as application/x-linguist not video/MP2T) 2. playbin2 doesn't seem to choose the best pipeline for playing these .ts files. I get better results (more fluid video) building simple pipelines myself. I guess I could resolve the freedesktop bug on my machine for me and now, but if someone with a freedesktop bugzilla account could vote for that bug, I'd be happy :-) Any ideas about issue 2? Thanks for all the info - I just LOVE the framework that Maemo 5 offers! -Tom Juan A.
