Hi, Attached is the first patch in my patchset intended to merge both current gstreamer bindings into one with the best of both 🙂 Please review and let me know if it’s ok to commit? See the patch itself for details. It does make me wonder if rbgobj\_get\_value\_from\_gobject shouldn’t be in rbgst.h instead of rbgprivate.h? Because at this point it’s not possible to compile the gstreamer bindings without having the glib2 source. Sjoerd PS: For those who wondering i’m using git-svn for my patch management, which shows up in the diff. But it doesn’t make any difference when committing to svn. ---

Do you have any pointer explaining the advantages of doing so? See [git-svn(1)](http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-svn.html) for a description of git-svn. The advantages of doing so is basically get all advantages of using a DVCS while the main branch is still in svn. I’m sure you can find more then enough articles on the web describing the advantages of a DVCS. But what is most important for me is that i can commit patches locally and then after review can push them upstream without loosing meta-data ## Sjoerd Everything that can be invented has been invented. – Charles Duell, Director of U.S. Patent Office, 1899 ---

I’m very interested. What changes are you going to make? iow: what are the advantages of the “other” ruby gstreamer bindings? Oh, and welcome to the cool-kid git club 🙂 ---
