Different cache-sizes for audio and video #98

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
gecko-mediaplayer has one option for cache size. Setting it at a large value 
makes video playing smoothly, but it takes too long for audio streams to start 
(due to very low bit-rate). Setting a low value audio plays well, but video may 
not reproduce that well. Having different sizes for audio streams and video 
streams solves the problem.

I have some code that works on this, but only if the stream identifies itself 
as an audio stream, which not a lot of sites do. So I will put the code in, but 
site like 

http://www.e-radio.gr/player/player.asp?sID=116

Will still use the video cache size, because of the mimetype of the media which 
is application/x-mplayer2 which we have to guess that it is is video.

Different cache sizes added to gnome-mplayer for the plugin, but only works if 
the website identifies the media as "audio" somewhere in the mimetype.
