2. Project Summary
2.1. Project Description:
GNonLin is an LGPL GStreamer plugin which provides a set of GStreamer
elements that are used in non-linear multimedia editors. It works
together with the GStreamer multimedia framework to give developers a
powerful and flexible set of tools for quickly assembling applications
which need to handle non-linear multimedia editing.
4. Technical Description:
4.1. Details:
The GNonLin module only installs a single GStreamer plugin and API
documentation. The plugin can be used by audio and video media
editors, such as jokosher. It includes the following interfaces:
- GnlComposition
Contains GnlObjects such as GnlSources and GnlOperations, and
connects them dynamically to create a composition timeline.
- GnlFileSource
Reads and decodes the contents of a given file. The data in the file
is decoded using any available GStreamer plugins.
- GnlOperation
Performs a transformation or mixing operation on the data from one or
more GnlSources, which is used to implement filters or effects.
- GnlSource
Encapsulates a pipeline which produces data for processing in a
GnlComposition
