An interface for setting/getting a Window on elements supporting it.
The XOverlay interface is used for 2 main purposes :
Using the Window created by the video sink is probably the simplest scenario, in some cases, though, it might not be flexible enough for application developers if they need to catch events such as mouse moves and button clicks.
Setting a specific Window identifier on the video sink element is the most flexible solution but it has some issues. Indeed the application needs to set its Window identifier at the right time to avoid internal Window creation from the video sink element. To solve this issue a Message is posted on the bus to inform the application that it should set the Window identifier immediately. Here is an example on how to do that correctly:
#include <gdk/gdkx.h> ... void PlayerWindow::on_bus_message_sync( const Glib::RefPtr<Gst::Message>& message) { // ignore anything but 'prepare-xwindow-id' element messages if(message->get_message_type() != Gst::MESSAGE_ELEMENT) return; if(!message->get_structure().has_name("prepare-xwindow-id")) return; Glib::RefPtr<Gst::Element> element = Glib::RefPtr<Gst::Element>::cast_dynamic(message->get_source()); Glib::RefPtr< Gst::ElementInterfaced<Gst::XOverlay> > xoverlay = Gst::Interface::cast <Gst::XOverlay>(element); if(xoverlay) { const gulong xWindowId = GDK_WINDOW_XID(widget->get_window()->gobj()); xoverlay->set_xwindow_id(xWindowId); } } ... int main (int argc, char *argv[]) { ... // Get the bus from the pipeline: Glib::RefPtr<Gst::Bus> bus = pipeline->get_bus(); // Enable synchronous message emission: bus->enable_sync_message_emission(); // Connect to bus's synchronous message signal: bus->signal_sync_message().connect( sigc::mem_fun(*this, &PlayerWindow::on_bus_message_sync)); ... }

static void Gst::XOverlay::add_interface | ( | GType | gtype_implementer | ) | [static] |
void Gst::XOverlay::expose | ( | ) |
Tell an overlay that it has been exposed.
This will redraw the current frame in the drawable even if the pipeline is PAUSED.
virtual void Gst::XOverlay::expose_vfunc | ( | ) | [virtual] |
Virtual method to handle expose events.

void Gst::XOverlay::got_window_handle | ( | guintptr | xwindow_id | ) |
This will post a "have-xwindow-id" element message on the bus.
This function should only be used by video overlay plugin developers.
handle | A platform-specific handle referencing the window. |
void Gst::XOverlay::got_xwindow_id | ( | gulong | xwindow_id | ) |
This will post a "have-xwindow-id" element message on the bus.
This function should only be used by video overlay plugin developers.
Deprecated: Use gst_x_overlay_got_window_handle() instead.
xwindow_id | A XID referencing the XWindow. |
void Gst::XOverlay::handle_events | ( | bool | handle_events | ) |
Tell an overlay that it should handle events from the window system.
These events are forwarded upstream as navigation events. In some window system, events are not propagated in the window hierarchy if a client is listening for them. This method allows you to disable events handling completely from the XOverlay.
handle_events | A bool indicating if events should be handled or not. |
virtual void Gst::XOverlay::handle_events_vfunc | ( | bool | handle_events | ) | [virtual] |
Virtual method to handle events.
void Gst::XOverlay::prepare_xwindow_id | ( | ) |
This will post a "prepare-xwindow-id" element message on the bus to give applications an opportunity to call gst_x_overlay_set_xwindow_id() before a plugin creates its own window.
This function should only be used by video overlay plugin developers.
bool Gst::XOverlay::set_render_rectangle | ( | int | x, |
int | y, | ||
int | width, | ||
int | height | ||
) |
Configure a subregion as a video target within the window set by gst_x_overlay_set_window_handle().
If this is not used or not supported the video will fill the area of the window set as the overlay to 100%. By specifying the rectangle, the video can be overlayed to a specific region of that window only. After setting the new rectangle one should call gst_x_overlay_expose() to force a redraw. To unset the region pass -1 for the width and height parameters.
This method is needed for non fullscreen video overlay in UI toolkits that do not support subwindows.
x | The horizontal offset of the render area inside the window. |
y | The vertical offset of the render area inside the window. |
width | The width of the render area inside the window. |
height | The height of the render area inside the window. |
false
if not supported by the sink. void Gst::XOverlay::set_window_handle | ( | guintptr | xwindow_handle | ) |
This will call the video overlay's set_window_handle method.
You should use this method to tell to a XOverlay to display video output to a specific window (e.g. an XWindow on X11). Passing 0 as the handle will tell the overlay to stop using that window and create an internal one.
handle | A handle referencing the window. |
void Gst::XOverlay::set_xwindow_id | ( | gulong | xwindow_id | ) |
This will call the video overlay's set_xwindow_id method.
You should use this method to tell to a XOverlay to display video output to a specific XWindow. Passing 0 as the xwindow_id will tell the overlay to stop using that window and create an internal one.
Deprecated: Use gst_x_overlay_set_window_handle() instead.
xwindow_id | A XID referencing the XWindow. |
virtual void Gst::XOverlay::set_xwindow_id_vfunc | ( | gulong | xwindow_id | ) | [virtual] |
Virtual method to configure the XWindow id.
Glib::RefPtr< Gst::XOverlay > wrap | ( | GstXOverlay * | object, |
bool | take_copy = false |
||
) | [related] |
A Glib::wrap() method for this object.
object | The C instance. |
take_copy | False if the result should take ownership of the C instance. True if it should take a new copy or ref. |
