GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 93195
let's get a media test going
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
We need a media regression test. What we need for that to happen is : a) a bunch of good, well-described (format-wise) test files b) an md5sink plug-in (which company wrote, we need to check if it's still ok) c) a simple app that runs an md5test, and can retrieve the md5sum on eos d) something that tests if gstreamer detects the right plug-in to use and so on This shouldn't be that hard to do at all. Please comment for further ideas
One component that we need is the ability to emulate a videosink like xvideosink, and then tee off the frames so that they can be tested. For example, filesrc location=AlienSong.mpg ! spider ! md5sum doesn't currently work, nor would it do what we want.
It would work if you used filtered links on the last link. But you can currently only do this by writing code.
We'll say this is done, even though we just have prototypes.
