Hi everyone!
I have a very strange behaviour with gstreamer. Under certain
circonstances, the play method of a playbin object freeze my Gtk/Gst
applycation. This is an example of a freezing code.
======================================================
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
# encoding: UTF-8
#gst-launch playbin
uri="http://mp3.live.tv-radio.com/centpourcent/all/centpourcent-128k.mp3"
require 'gtk2'
require 'gst'
class Player
def initialize
@playbin=Gst::ElementFactory.make('playbin')
@playbin.ready
end
def stop
@playbin.stop
end
def play
@playbin.uri='http://mp3.live.tv-radio.com/centpourcent/all/centpourcent-128k.mp3'
#@playbin.uri='file:///home/instable/Musique/01 - Blue Bird.mp3'
p "Going to play..."
@playbin.play
p "Playing."
end
end
class Gui
def initialize(player)
@player=player
@bstop=Gtk::Button.new('Stop')
@bstop.signal_connect('clicked'){@player.stop}
@bplay=Gtk::Button.new('Play')
@bplay.signal_connect('clicked'){@player.play}
@box=Gtk::HBox.new
@box.pack_start(@bstop)
@box.pack_start(@bplay)
@window=Gtk::Window.new
@window.add(@box)
@window.show_all
@window.signal_connect("delete_event"){Gtk_quit; true}
#@player.play
end
end
player=Player.new
gui=Gui.new(player)
#player.play
Gtk.main
===========================================================
Did it also freeze the program on clicking the play button on your
machine ?
I will try to explain the circonstances needed for a freeze.
The uri need to a webradio (maybe not all webradios freezes). No
freeze with loacal files.
The play method must be called from a block. No freeze if it is called
from the main code or within the Gui#initialize method.
If the uri was all ready played, the play method from a block do not
freeze the programm. (If I call player.play from main code, I can use
the stop and then the play button without freezing the programm.
Am I doing something wrong ?

No.
On debian sid :
Tested with 1.8.7, RG2 0.19.3
and 1.9.1, RG2 svn
I tried several times to stop/play, and it works ok.
Btw, Gtk_quit is undefined.

The bug may be thread related.
If the play method of the playbin is called inside a thread the gui
does not freeze. :)
But if I use the join method on the thread the gui freezes.
I was think at using a thread as a workaround.
Gtk and threads are not good friend. Can I just call the play method
on a thread?
I hope someone will have an idea on why that bug occurs.

Apparently the freeze is caused by the souphttpsrc element. (If I replace the playbin by a simple souphttpsrc element the freeze still occurs) On ubuntu I use the 0.10.16-1ubuntu3 version of gstreamer0.10-plugins-good. Simon can you post yours ? Maybe I do not have a freeze because of your proxy. In souphttpsrc sources, code differs whether there is a proxy or not. http://cgit.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gst-plugins-good/tree/ext/soup/gstsouphttpsrc.c#n1239 Maybe I should file GStremear bug. 2010/3/4, vincent carmona <vinc4mai@gmail.com>:

Paquet : gstreamer0.10-plugins-good Version : 0.10.18-1 Paquet : libsoup2.4-1 Version : 2.29.91-1 You might want to test it in Python/Perl, or vala maybe. good luck

I know none of these languages. Ruby is the only one I am used to.
Python is close to ruby maybe I can translate my bug. I suppose it
have a Gtk and a Gstreamer libraries. I have not be able to reproduce
the bug with only ruby/gst.
Thanks for your precious help.
Vincent.

I have test this radio with python. There is no freeze. I am guessing that the "bug " is in ruby libraries. Maybe I should open a bug on ruby-gnome tracker. What do you think ? Vincent 2010/3/4, vincent carmona <vinc4mai@gmail.com>:
