[MeeGo-dev] Using meego-dev for the Accounts SSO project

2011-03-25 Thread Alberto Mardegan

Hi all,
  I'd like to hear your comments about the possibility of moving the 
development team discussions from an internal (and not public) Nokia mailing 
list to meego-dev.
I would estimate the traffic to be from 1 to 5 messages per day (with some 
occasional spikes, of course) and being mostly consisting of patches and review 
comments.


Reasons for moving away from the internal mailing list should be quite obvious. 
:-) Accounts  SSO is part of MeeGo Core, yet almost nobody knows about it, and 
very little contributions are coming from outside of Nokia.
I initially though that a project specific ML would be more appropriate (and 
filed BMC#14801 about that), but if people here don't mind a little extra 
traffic then having the development happening in this ML would be all fine to 
me, and could be even more beneficial to the project.


You opinion about this proposal is appreciated and, in fact, needed. :-)

Ciao,
  Alberto

Hi,

One suggestion could be to use a prefix, like we in N900 try to use
N900: as prefix on subject lines and then when there's sufficient
traffic, move to seperate.

 Regarding the already existing projects. Are you aware of MAFW on
 Maemo5
 http://www.grancanariadesktopsummit.org/node/219
 The implementation might not be perfect, but the concept behind is
 sane.

 No I did not know it and I think you for the link. I have so far only
 written a requirement specification and any idea to move toward a goo
 implementation specifications are welcomed. I will dig in their
 documentation.

MAFW on Fremantle was mostly done by Igalia. Some of the people now work
on Grillo open source project where you might be able to talk to them
(on irc).


 The picture in 6 Position in MeeGo looks quite arbitrary to me.
 Do the
 colors have a special semantics (meybe add a small leged below).

 No the colour are just imported from a slide and where just there to
 help to identify the blocks. The main idea of that graph is to make
 very clear that the proposed concept does not pan to create a
 universal audio/video pipeline but has the goal to be able to
 integrate multiple video pipeline under a unified umbrella. In
 particular it aims at enabling to get non open source pipeline to
 coexist with public pipelines.


 In 7 Transparency you need to highlight what your proposal adds
 to the
 existing features.

 The chapter 7) Transparency regroup the need to provide certain type
 of services in a transparent manner to the the application. My goal is
 to enable applications to play multimedia content which knowing much
 about that content. e.g. if you write an application which need to
 access a live TV service but you live in US, you will have different
 pipeline once that same application is run in Europe.The requirement
 of transparency is applied to the typeof source and target. In a very
 similar manner as when you print on Linux today. Your application
 knowns very little about the printer but still can print.
Which part of the pipeline your are thinking is not well handled right
now. I you have concrete examples for illustration, I would encourage
you to add them. I believe architecturally we don't miss anything major
here.


 * Transport protocol: handled e.g. by gstreamer already, standarts
 like
 DLNA specify subsets for interoperability already


 I am afraid that GStreamer cannot do today everything that I would
 love it to do. It does pretty well on most of internet format but
 Playbin2 has a very limited set of supported services when it come to
 Broadcast or IPTV. Furthermore by default it does not support any
 smoth streaming feature or protection.
The gstreamer people already have smooth streaming implementation. There
are two things:
1) missing architecture to implement a feature
2) missing implementation for a certain feature
I believe the gstreamer architecture is pretty solid for adding extra
streaming protocols, container, codecs etc.
Regarding content protection, I believe it should be done outside of
gstreamer. As I said it is not media specific. One idea would be to
implement a virtual file system with the related access rights and
process isolation. This would allow to run an unmodified media pipeline.

 But I agree that GStreamer is a great tool and I would certainly see
 it as one of the strong candidate to implement the first open source
 audio video pipe line under a UMMS framework.
Just to be clear - I am not saying that gstreamer is the tool for
everything. But integrating two many thing in parallel might not be
beneficial either. Thus your document needs to improve pointing out the
missing parts (explicitly). Then people can help you to identify
existing implementations (or where they believe the feature should be
added). Then we can also identify things that are completely missing.

We also have to keep in mind that people need to be able to understand
our multimedia stack. Right now I think it makes sense:

QtMulitmediaKit
* high level qt/c++ api that focuses on particular use cases
* might apply constraints to keep the api simple
QtGStreamer
* the full feature set of gstreamer bound to a qt style api

GStreamer
* high level api (playbin2, camerabin(2), decodebin2, gnonlin, rtpbin, ...)
* open and closed multimedia components

Kernel
* audio/video i/o, network, accelerated codecs, ...

  

 * Transparent Encapsulation and Multiplexing: could you please
 elaborate
 why one would need the non-automatic mode. I think it does not make
 sense to let the application specify what format the stream is in, if
 the media-framework can figure it (in almost all of the cases). In
 some
 corner cases one can e.g. use custom pipelines and specify the format
 (e.g. a ringtone playback service might do that if it knows the format
 already).

This is certainly a good compromise. But then we just develop a Tracker
miner for E-D-S (which is somthing we planned to do anyway in upstream,
at least at some point).

Some pointers and info on how to make a E-D-S miner for Tracker:

 There is no architectural issue regarding blueray in the our stack. It
 is more a legal mess. I belive given you have the time and money, you
 could write blueray support to gstreamer in a similar fashion as we have
 the dvd support now.
 The idea presented here is that the UMMS can decide which pipe line to
 call on depending of URL or the detected stream type without requiring
 a prior knowledge from the application about the pipeline
 configuration/selection.
 That means you would like to have a bunch of different multimedia
 frameworks on a device and then use an appropriate one depending on the
 URI. E.g. use gstreamer for some formats and use mplayer for some
 others. While that might sound like a good idea, I don't think it is one
 for several reasons:
 - you will needs to abstract the the different apis (well thats actually
 your proposal)
 - you increase size and complexity of the multimedia stack
 - more difficult to debug (e.g. differnet tools needed)
 - testing is a lot more difficult
 - users might get annoyed by small incompatibilities (seeking works
 differently depending on the media)
 - you need to do base adaptation several times (integrate codecs,
 rendering etc. in several frameworks)

 There might be more reasons that speak against such an approach, but
 already the last one would be major enough for me.
Can't resist, while speaking with a colleague he came up with a good
metaphor for the above. Is there an idea car? No, there isn't. Thus
instead of fixing the car to be what we want, we have a simpler solution
- we take 3 cars, string the together, put an extra seat on the roof and
proxy the controls. Then we can drive using the Fiat in the city, using
the Porsche on the motorway and using the van when we need more space
for transportation. Of course finding a parking space gets tricky ...

Since our code is in gitorious.org, we generally do code reviews in 
gitorious.org, and we just post a URL to a short comment to the mailing list.


Trivial/short patches are usually sent to the mailing list.

I think it will be challenging enough to convince all the stakeholder to migrate 
to a different ML; I wouldn't like to also change the review process.


But that said, if someone submits patches as bugzilla attachments, it's also 
fine to review them there. But to ensure that all team members have a chance to 
view the submissions, I'd rather encourage using the ML.

Grilo actually expands on the ideas introduced by MAFW, and we think it
fixes many of its shortcomings while keeping the good ideas behind it. I
elaborated on the reasons we had to create Grilo and what it provides to
multimedia solution developers in a post when we first announced the
project [1], it is an old post and some things are outdated (like the
link to the repository), but the main ideas are there. I also wrote an
article explaining the purpose of Grilo [2] that you might be interested
in reading.

BTW, I sent a paper to the MeeGo Conference in Dublin with the idea of
introducing Grilo to the MeeGo community there. Unfortunately I did not
get it accepted, although I did have a lightning talk on the topic. I've
sent the proposal again for the San Francisco event [3], hopefully I am
more lucky this time around :)

I would love to see Grilo included in the multimedia stack of MeeGo, I
think it would be a great tool for multimedia solution developers and we
(Igalia) would be glad to work on making that possible if the MeeGo
community welcomes the addition.

QSparql is the official way of using Tracker in Maemo Qt based code. As far as 
I 
know it has been packaged for MeeGo too, and I am not sure if the above 
statement from Arjan van de Ven is correct.

In order to build the RAD environment, that I personally dream of, QSparql 
will be needed even if application programmers won't all use it directly. 
Maybe we can do a visual QtCreator environment via QSparql QML integration and 
QtCreator plugins, to allow app developers to rapidly create mashups with the 
application independent data in Tracker. That data might by combined with data 
from SPARQL endpoints out on the web that is also retrieved via QSparql.

As a possible example (pulled from recent experience), automagic

non-automatic mode would be (was) helpful in instances where the
application knows exactly what type of stream to expect, and there is
a requirement for an absolute minimum of start-up time between the user
pressing the Play button and video appearing on the screen.

 * Transparent Target: Whats the role of the UMMS here? How does the URI
 make sense here. Are you suggesting to use something like
 opengl://localdisplay/0/0/854/480? MAFW was introducing renderers, where
 a local renderer would render well locally and one could e.g. have a
 UPnP DLNA renderer or a media recorder.
 * Transparent Resource Management: That makes a lot of sense and so far
 was planned to be done on QT MultimediaKit
 * Attended and Non Attended execution: This sounds like having a media
 recording service in the platform.

 8 Audio Video Control
 This is a media player interface. Most of the things make sense. Below
 those that might need more thinking
 * Codec Selection: please don't. This is something that we need to solve
 below and not push to the application or even to the user.

Agreed, in part.  As a general rule, the underlying detection and codec
selection should be transparent to an application, however there are
corner cases where this may not be desirable, and specific selection of
a codec may be necessary.

Consider a system which has an external (to the main CPU)
PowerDrain-5000(tm) video processor capable of both MPEG-2 and MPEG-4
decode.  If the system is in a commanded low-power state, it may be
more prudent to decode standard-definition MPEG-2 content in software on
the main CPU and leave the external video processor powered-down.
However, when decode of MPEG-4 content is desired, soft-decode may not
be feasible and the external video hardware needs to be used.

In instances, as above, where the system has multiple codecs (hardware
and software) capable of decoding given content, is there envisioned
some method of specifying codec priority so that a given method of
decode is used preferentially?

 * Buffer Strategy: same as before. Buffering strategy depends on the
 use-case and media. The application needs to express whether its a
 media-player/media-editor/.. and from that we need to derive this.

But not all use-cases may have the same requirements.  Again, from
recent experience, my system's requirements for low-latency may or may
not match yours.  That's not to say that providing some sane defaults
that cover a majority of expected use cases isn't a good idea, just
don't restrict the application to those and those alone.

snip

 15 GStreamer
 It is GStreamer (with a upper case 'S') :) In general please spell check
 the section.
 Regarding the three weak points:
 * smooth fast forward is a seek_event with a rate1.0. There might be
 elements not properly implementing that, but I fail to understand how
 you can fix that on higher layers instead of in the elements. It might
 make sense to define extended compliance criteria for base adaptation
 vendors to ensure consistent behavior and features.

 QSparql is the standard way of accessing Tracker from Maemo in Qt code, and as
 far as I know it has been packaged for MeeGo too. In order to build the Qt
 based RAD environment, that I personally dream of, QSparql will be needed.

Is there a particular reason not to have QSparql, when you already have Tracker?

(Someone should really summarize these threads in a wiki)

 Maybe it shouldn't be used directly by application programmers, but it will be
 needed as a base for building visual development tools that might use QML with
 QtCreator plugins support.

Perhaps you can elaborate on this RAD tools elsewhere, say,
meego-community mailing list? I have hard time thinking how a RAD tool
for sparql would look like, but the thought is intriguing...

  In 7 Transparency you need to highlight what your proposal adds to the
  existing features.
  * Transport protocol: handled e.g. by gstreamer already, standarts like
  DLNA specify subsets for interoperability already
  * Transparent Encapsulation and Multiplexing: could you please elaborate
  why one would need the non-automatic mode. I think it does not make
  sense to let the application specify what format the stream is in, if
  the media-framework can figure it (in almost all of the cases). In some
  corner cases one can e.g. use custom pipelines and specify the format
  (e.g. a ringtone playback service might do that if it knows the format
  already).
 
 As a possible example (pulled from recent experience), automagic
 determination of stream parameters takes time (and CPU cycles).  A
 non-automatic mode would be (was) helpful in instances where the
 application knows exactly what type of stream to expect, and there is
 a requirement for an absolute minimum of start-up time between the user
 pressing the Play button and video appearing on the screen.

  A lot of improvement has gone into GStreamer over the past year to
speed up the pre-roll/typefinding/setup of playback pipelines. This was
mainly to get gst-discoverer to be faster than exiftool to get
information about media files, which it now is ... considering it also
decodes the first audio/video frame(s).
  The only case I can think of where you would gain time would be for
live mpeg-ts streams where you could provide the PAT/PMT information
which you would have cached previously (in order not to have to wait for
the next occurence). But that would still require you to wait for the
next keyframe to appear unless you already have a few seconds live
back-buffer on the machine (in which case you would also have cached
PAT/PMT).
  Did you have another use-case in mind ?

 
  * Transparent Target: Whats the role of the UMMS here? How does the URI
  make sense here. Are you suggesting to use something like
  opengl://localdisplay/0/0/854/480? MAFW was introducing renderers, where
  a local renderer would render well locally and one could e.g. have a
  UPnP DLNA renderer or a media recorder.
  * Transparent Resource Management: That makes a lot of sense and so far
  was planned to be done on QT MultimediaKit
  * Attended and Non Attended execution: This sounds like having a media
  recording service in the platform.
 
  8 Audio Video Control
  This is a media player interface. Most of the things make sense. Below
  those that might need more thinking
  * Codec Selection: please don't. This is something that we need to solve
  below and not push to the application or even to the user.
 
 Agreed, in part.  As a general rule, the underlying detection and codec
 selection should be transparent to an application, however there are
 corner cases where this may not be desirable, and specific selection of
 a codec may be necessary.
 
 Consider a system which has an external (to the main CPU)
 PowerDrain-5000(tm) video processor capable of both MPEG-2 and MPEG-4
 decode.  If the system is in a commanded low-power state, it may be
 more prudent to decode standard-definition MPEG-2 content in software on
 the main CPU and leave the external video processor powered-down.
 However, when decode of MPEG-4 content is desired, soft-decode may not
 be feasible and the external video hardware needs to be used.
 
 In instances, as above, where the system has multiple codecs (hardware
 and software) capable of decoding given content, is there envisioned
 some method of specifying codec priority so that a given method of
 decode is used preferentially?

  Yes, with playbin2/decodebin2 you can change the order of
codecs/plugins being used. By default it will use the one with the
highest rank matching the stream to decode, but you can connect to the
'autoplug-factories' signal and reorder those plugins to have it use the
software one or the hardware one.
  Another way to go around that problem would be to have the software
plugin only accept SD streams in input (via its pad template caps) and
have a higher rank than the hardware one, which would make the system
automatically pick up the SW plugin for SD content, but use the HW one
for HD content.

 
  * Buffer Strategy: same as before. Buffering strategy depends on the
  use-case and media. The application needs to express whether its a
  media-player/media-editor/.. and from that we need to derive this.
 
 But not all use-cases may have the same requirements.  Again, from
 recent experience, my system's requirements for low-latency may or may
 not match yours.  That's not to say that providing some sane defaults
 that cover a majority of expected use cases isn't a good idea, just
 don't restrict the application to those and those alone.

  Latency/buffering are

Well, RDF stores are just databases that happen to be more general and based 
on graphs, rather than being based on tables like relational databases. Often 
you can view RDF data as a table and that works fine.

But I don't see any reason why visual development tools for RDF/SPARQL stores 
should look much different to what people are familiar with from tools like 
Visual Basic. Or ORM's like NeXT/Apple's Enterprise Object Framework, or the 
Core Data modern equivalent, that are combined with Interface Builder for 
visually composing UIs.

my concern is based on the (lack of) progress around QSparql in MeeGo. 
I'm sure it's all great in Harmattan,
but a solid story for MeeGo has so far been lacking. Ideally QSparql 
becomes a real, full and open source member of the Qt family of APIs.

(a solid story also includes proper moving away from older APIs)

Until that's there color me a bit skeptical... it's been promised 
for a long time and hasn't really materialized very well yet.

Where exactly your concerns are coming from?

http://maemo.gitorious.org/maemo-af/qsparql and
http://maemo.gitorious.org/maemo-af/libqtsparql-tracker are alive and
available. Development there hapens daily. Developers are available at
upstream tracker IRC channel. The code there exactly what is used in
Harmattan, packages get built straight out of gitorious.org.

Are you concerned that nobody has submitted libqtsparql-tracker for
about three months to OBS? QSparql build itself as over a month old. I
guess an architecture decision story hasn't really added any
assurance at all.

 Until that's there color me a bit skeptical... it's been promised for a
 long time and hasn't really materialized very well yet.
Code is there open, development is happening openly, and for what it
worth, it gets very extensive testing as part of Harmattan application
development.

Don't tell me that at this level (Tracker - QSparql) testing in
MeeGo would be totally different from any other recent GNU/Linux
environment.

Regarding proper moving away from older APIs, meego-handset-photos
hasn't seen any development in gitorious.org since October2010. Where
can I find a recent version?

 Comments/Suggestions/Contributions are welcome!

 Thanks for doing this!

 A couple questions the link on the wiki goes to the repository of
 MeeGo package patterns on Gitorious but I don't seem
 meego-minimal-console there.

 My intention is to create such a pattern!

 The meego-minimal that is there has X, is
 that the one you're using?

 I used core-ia32-base-nodocs as my base kickstart file.

 Secondly, what is the goal? Is it to create the smallest set of
 packages and dependencies that will boot? How does this interact with
 MeeGo Core?

 This image can be used for debugging meego startup scripts, reducing meego
 footprint etc.

Sounds very useful. I look forward to trying it out!

[MeeGo-dev] Idle hands are the devil's tools, aka the MeeGo SDK installer

2011-03-25 Thread Attila Csipa
Warning. Agitated rant ahead.


In a moment of Friday afternoon boredom following a tweet about a certain
competition I decided to check out the state of the 'official' offering and
got the Linux install from
http://appdeveloper.intel.com/en-us/meego-sdk-suite. Smallish thing, an
installer I think to myself, okay... Are you sure ? Of course I'm sure. It
says it wants sudo and stuff... well, okay, I would have preferred to do the
apt-getting myself if that's what it does anyway... I know, what kind of
idiot sudos some random installer from the Internet... Well, I did happen to
have a previous install on my otherwise bog-standard Lucid hack-machine and
the installer happily offers to remove 6-7 packages from that. Says continue
with existing not recommended, well, okay, then proceed with remove... And
yes, I know, that's a double fail, I asked for it (cue laugh). As it turns
out, the eager beaver installer apt-get bloody *force* removed pretty much
all of my Kubuntu install, all the way down to kdm. WTF ? But you said just
6-7 packages... (haha, sucker !). But a fail is a fail only if you don't
learn from it, so let's see what we can learn from this incident (apart from
saying 'no thanks' to stupid sudo-requiring installers even if they come
from official sources). Checking out the installer script you can see what
caused the meltdown:

echo  MeeGo SDK components found.
echo $PKGS
setFontColor red
echo -e  The following packages are installed and will be uninstalled\n \
 prior to installing the MeeGo SDK:
echo$PKGS
setFontColor blue
echo -e  Would you like to uninstall all previously  \
installed MeeGo SDK components now?\n \
\t(u)ninstall now\n \
\t(s)kip uninstall and proceed (not recommended)\n \
\t(e)xit installation
read -p  Select option (u/s/e): 
setFontColor default
if [ $REPLY == u ]  [ $REPLY != U ]; then
if [ $OS == Ubuntu ]; then
  apt-get autoremove -y $PKGS \(is this safe / necessary ?)

I don't know who asked that there, but let me answer. I don't know if it's
necessary, but it's VERY not safe (I'll refrain from using derogatory terms
this time). You display the packages YOU want to uninstall and then tell apt
to remove whatever IT thinks is right (along with, you know, dependencies).
What the frack happened to apt-get --just-print (dry-run) and then
proceeding ? And I thought the QtSDK is sometimes a bit rough around the
edges and people are sometimes too heavy criticizing error-prone SDK
setups... but that's peanuts compared to this monster-fail, seeing apt kill
your install was not a pleasant sight (now I know how people accidentlaly
typing rm -rf / feel). Not. Frackin'. Funny. At. All. Sorry about the
agitated mail, now I have the weekend fun of a devel machine to setup,
instead of doing something productive like the initial idea from an hour ago
of publishing something to AppUp developer challenge by using the official
tools in the process. I guess you can call that learning the hard way. End
of rant. And have a nice day.

Agreed. Luckily tracker will still be there on the platform (as Marius
stated earlier in this thread), so it can be used by willing
applications. It's just that contact information is not *primarily*
stored there anymore - but we can arrange for an (unofficial) way
where it gets moved there from EDS anyway.


Would it be helpful to have a branch project area on the community OBS?

Conceptually this is similar to the Project:DE which is tracking trunk and 
maintaining an overlay.


It may help to show me the code and to maintain patchsets over time as 
MeeGo:Trunk moves.

Re: [MeeGo-dev] Candidate specification for a generic video player from the TV list

2011-03-25 Thread Niels Mayer
FYI, I just proposed a BOF that will partially be on this topic from
an app-developers pt-of-view:

http://sf2011.meego.com/program/sessions/bof-developing-qml-youtube-api-and-internet-video
BOF: Developing in QML for YouTube API and Internet video
...
[...] demonstrate powerful techniques for working with YouTube feeds
and for displaying YouTube videos in QML-based apps. Discussion on
ideas, implementation strategies and applications of Internet video in
MeeGo; focus will be on QML implementation, providing touch-interfaces
for streaming media browsing, hybrid implementations involving Flash
embedded in WebKit implementations, issues with using QtMultimediaKit
Player, and discussion of alternatives.
 [...]
e. Open discussion on media players including issues with using
QtMultimediaKit Player in QML, and discussion of alternatives such as
Grilo ( 
http://sf2011.meego.com/program/sessions/grilo-enhancing-multimedia-experience-meego
), MAFW ( http://www.grancanariadesktopsummit.org/node/219 ), gst123 (
http://space.twc.de/~stefan/gst123.php ) and the Media Lovin' Toolkit
( http://www.mltframework.org/ ) which is the basis of the amazing
http://wiki.meego.com/MeeGo-Lem#The_OpenShot_Video_Editor .
...

Any suggestions or changes? Let me know... it's not midnight yet! :-),
especially from pt-of-view of using aforementioned playback/loop/clip
tools from QML.
