Description Thiago Sousa Santos 2010-04-06 22:03:51 UTC 
Camerabin has some properties that could be better named.

We could rename:

video-source-caps -> video-source-allowed-caps
filter-caps -> video-source-filter-caps

This makes it more clear to users and the sooner we get to change these, less devels are going to have to change their applications, ubuntu/debian weren't shipping camerabin by mistake until recently, and there wasn't much discussion or bugs being opened about it until recently, so I'd guess there are few people using it.

I've opened this bug for a discussion if we should just rename them, live with what have currently or think on a transition/deprecation process.

I don't mind just renaming, it is in -bad and young element, seems like the best option in the long run.
Comment 1 Thiago Sousa Santos 2010-04-13 21:42:00 UTC 
I'm actually thinking on these names, now:

video-source-supported-caps
video-source-filter-caps

And I've just noticed it now has a image-capture-supported-caps inherited from photography interface. I wonder if that isn't the same as the video-source-supported-caps in the end.
Comment 2 Stefan Sauer (gstreamer, gtkdoc dev) 2010-07-03 19:45:52 UTC 
We agreed in Bug #616923 to not proxy the iface. But it would still be good to clarify how they relate to each other.
Comment 3 Sebastian Dröge (slomo) 2011-05-24 08:34:55 UTC 
Is this still needed now that camerabin2 exists?
Comment 4 Thiago Sousa Santos 2011-05-24 12:32:56 UTC 
I guess we can obsolete this one now.
