The gstreamer plugin code is proprietary I think (need ot check that), but the driver is open source and already mainline in linux kernel since a few year. So it's just the user space glue (the gstreamer plugins) that is not public. > If it's restricted to samsung hw, then please keep this a patchset for > your platforms. > > If it's public, then could you share a timeline to get his accepted in > Gstreamer's plugin "base" or at least "good" set?

Problem is gstreamer playbin doesn't handle this kind of plugins at the moment. There is some work to do on gstreamer side before it can get this kind of plugins in correctly (not in a hackish way). In some way this patch is a work around gstreamer limitation and the fact that it lack some feature. The thing is we need this feature and maybe more than for just Samsung hardware (colorspace convertion and scaledown in an optimized way). This patch gave the infra to work around a limitation in a hackish way, I agree, but the time needed to fix gstreamer is much higher than if we do it on our side. I see that as a temporary mesure until gstreamer 1.0 is out, device maker start to adopt it and we can start to fix it correctly. -- Cedric BAIL ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
