Description Vitaly Mayatskih 2007-07-09 09:13:25 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
Cairotextoverlay ignores the font-desc property

Steps to reproduce:
1. gst-launch -v videotestsrc ! ffmpegcolorspace ! cairotextoverlay font-desc "Arial 30" ! autovideosink
2. 
3. 


Actual results:
The font is default

Expected results:
Textoverlay through cairo should works like pango (choose user-defined font from font-desc property)

Does this happen every time?
yes

gst-launch videotestsrc ! cairotextoverlay font-desc="Arial" text="test" ! xvimagesink

gst-launch videotestsrc ! cairotextoverlay font-desc="Times" text="test" ! xvimagesink

creates different look, but specifying a size seems to not work.

Fixed in CVS, sort of:

  2007-11-13  Tim-Philipp Müller  <tim at centricular dot net>

        * ext/cairo/gsttextoverlay.c: (gst_text_overlay_font_init):
          Implement minimal parsing of the passed pango font description
          string, so passing a font size works the same as with the
          pango textoverlay plugin; fixes #455086.
          (Maybe we could just use pangocairo here at some point).
