Description Sjoerd Simons 2006-05-09 20:58:56 UTC 
As the stream-info property of playbin is declared as a Pointer it's not really usefull for high-level languages (Python/ruby/etc).. There should be some way to get this information from the plugin which is somewhat more bindings-friendly..

This was discussed a little on the gst-devel list recently.

Prove of concept patch

This patch solves the issue by putting the streaminfo objects in a GValueArray. Works nicely when used in the ruby bindings (should be fine for python too)
Comment 2 Thomas Vander Stichele 2006-05-11 20:59:44 UTC 
renamed _values to _value_array for consistency.

Thanks for the patch, worked fine first try interactively in ipython.

More patches like this please !
