gst_element_get_static_pad()方法会从给定的element里面取得Pad的名字。这个Pad是静态的,因为它会一直存在。要进一步了解Pad请阅读GStreamer文档关于Pad的部分。
然后我们调用gst_pad_get_negotiated_caps()方法来获得Pad当前的Capabilities,无论是否已经固定下来,都会依赖协商过程的状态。这时Capabilities可能是不存在的,如果遇到这种情况,我们就调用gst_pad_get_caps_reffed()方法来建立一个当前可以接受的Pad Capabilities。这个所谓的当前可接受的Caps时Pad Template的在NULL状态下的Caps,但后面这个可能会改变,因为还会查询实际的硬件。
gst_pad_get_caps_reffed()通常来说比gst_pad_get_caps()快一点,而且如果我们不需要改变获得的Caps的话也足够用了。然后我们就打印出这些Capabilities。
/* Create the element factories */
source_factory = gst_element_factory_find ("audiotestsrc");
sink_factory = gst_element_factory_find ("autoaudiosink");
if (!source_factory || !sink_factory) {
g_printerr ("Not all element factories could be created.\n");
return -1;
}
/* Print information about the pad templates of these factories */
print_pad_templates_information (source_factory);
print_pad_templates_information (sink_factory);
/* Ask the factories to instantiate actual elements */
source = gst_element_factory_create (source_factory, "source");
sink = gst_element_factory_create (sink_factory, "sink");
在前面的教程中我们直接使用gst_element_factory_make()方法来创建element,而忽略了工厂本身,我们现在补上这一部分。一个GstElementFactory是负责通过一个工厂名来实例化一个element的。
你可以使用gst_element_factory_find()来创建一个“videotestsrc”工厂,然后通过gst_element_factory_create()来实例化多个“videotestsrc” element。gst_element_factory_make()实际上只是这个过程的一个封装。
通过工厂,Pad模板实际上已经可以访问了,所以工厂一建立我们立刻打印这些信息。
我们跳过pipeline的创建和启动部分,直接跳到状态切换消息的处理:
case GST_MESSAGE_STATE_CHANGED:
/* We are only interested in state-changed messages from the pipeline */
if (GST_MESSAGE_SRC (msg) == GST_OBJECT (pipeline)) {
GstState old_state, new_state, pending_state;
gst_message_parse_state_changed (msg, &old_state, &new_state, &pending_state);
g_print ("\nPipeline state changed from %s to %s:\n",
gst_element_state_get_name (old_state), gst_element_state_get_name (new_state));
/* Print the current capabilities of the sink element */
print_pad_capabilities (sink, "sink");
}
break;
这里只是在每次pipeline状态切换的时候简单地打印当前的Pad Caps。你可以看到,在输出信息里面,初始的Caps(Pad模板的Caps)是如何逐步变化直到确定下来的(仅包含一个类型而且数值固定)。
