need a firewire plugin #141

Open fosslc opened 13 years ago

This ticket will track work to develop a firewire plugin. This plugin would take video and optional audio too from firewire. This would allow camcorders and video mixers to be used.

Firewire: http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gst-plugins-good-plugins/html/gst-plugins-good-plugins-dv1394src.html

gst-launch example: gst-launch dv1394src ! queue ! dvdemux name=d ! queue ! dvdec ! xvimagesink d. ! queue ! alsasink

Another thing to note. This Input plugin will need to be designed differently than usual. Today all our input plugins take 1 video, or 1 audio and push it out but since this will need to be able to handle both it'll have to be designed differently.

I started on a firewire plugin last night, will push it online once it's done. The design however will only be for video. More work will need to be done to support audio. Also it will be untested since I don't have any firewire devices to actually test with. The plugin will be based on the design from the Freeseer 2 series.

Initial work on firewire plugin added http://git.io/oFPF0Q

Still needs work to get audio working.
