Pause video to buffer #110

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Watch a video 
2.Play past the buffered amount
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Video stops

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Debian Sid

Please provide any additional information below.
Please change it so that it pauses the video when it gets to a point where it 
hasn't buffered appose to stopping. I love this software but its really 
frustrating when I'm watching something and it just stops because it has not 
buffered and I have to go find that point of the video again.

Might try upgrading to 1.0.3, there is improved caching support.

Latest version form git (1.4.2?) for both Gnome-mplayer and plugin./

I'm using 1.4.0 for both Gnome-mplayer and plugin.

Is there a way to stop buffering for a local file.  For my application, I just 
need to display a bunch of local video files.  Right now, when playing big 
local video file(say a 600M mov file), it got lots of "SetProgressText to 
connection 0xxxxxxxx " before it can show the video.  So the switching between 
videos got around 3 sec delay.  Any clues to reduce the buffering time?

In gnome-mplayer you can change the cache size preference for the plugin under 
Edit->Preferences

If you can control the webpage, I believe you can also set "nocache='true'" in 
the embed tag.

I have already reduced the video and audio cache size for gnome-mplayer as 
belows:
        <entry name="plugin-video-cache-size" mtime="1312343158" type="int" value="256"/>
        <entry name="plugin-audio-cache-size" mtime="1312343158" type="int" value="64"/>

And set nocache='true' in the embed tag as well.

Here are the logs:

Please don't chop the output from firefox...

What happens if you just put this in firefox

http://localhost:8080/data/bbc1080p.mov

Please note that even with caching disable, mplayer will still cache some of 
the video which may take a second or two. It will do this to ensure that it has 
enough data to start the playing.

Yup I have tried http://localhost:8080 in Firefox.  It's the same.
Indeed, when I use gnome-mplayer with a playlist, it will switch to the next 
video nearly with no delay, not like gecko-mediaplayer when used with Firefox.  
From the log, it caches up  before it displays to the broswer with certain 
delay during the switching of a video.  Need to modify the source code to avoid 
this, like plugin.cpp?
