[PATCH] Add videomaxrate filter to prevent hi cpu usage.
Last modified: 2010-09-13 21:19:45 UTC
Created attachment 169497 [details] [review] patch v1 This patch add videomaxrate filter to reduce maximal frame rate to 15fps. In most situation webcam will produce about 10fps, with a lot of light it can even get 30fps. This will be killer on slow CPU like Athom. I set videomaxrate befor all other plugins, so thay get reduced frame rate too. Attention: videomaxrate depend on gst-plugins-bad
Thanks; what happens when the filter is not available? If this causes a failure, would it be possible to have this filter applied only when available? (same for bug 628786)
Review of attachment 169497 [details] [review]: I agree with fredp, it's probably better to check if videomaxrate is available for now. There is a possibility that we'll merge videomaxrate into videorate at some point anyway. And my comments from bug #628786 apply here also.
This was fixed with patch from bug 628786
