Depends on GTK+, gvfs and a media framework, when built that way, and hopefully soon just that (ie. we'll have dropped the libgnomeui dependency). > As a reference there is gst-simple-player which is a bare-bones > application I started. > http://freshmeat.net/projects/gst-player/ > > And there's a couple of GTK+ widgets David Schleef started: > http://diracvideo.org/git?p=gst-gtk-widgets.git It would be smaller because it has less features :) > I believe what Mark Trompell was looking for was a simple browser > plugin that could use simple stuff as those above. <snip> > > Which mime-type would your plugin support then? > > video/x-msvideo > video/divx > video/avi > video/ogg For the first and the third, a lot of websites will be thinking they have a WMP plugin, which will then not work on those sites. And because of the way the more popular web browsers work, you won't be able to only use your plugin for the one site. So you'll need to either invent a new mime-type, for web developers to use, or mimic the expected behaviour. In all cases, I think the point of this discussion is moot. Totem will have less dependencies in the future, and it's already installed by default on a number of distributions. _______________________________________________ gnome-multimedia mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-multimedia
