That sounds good.

I do have a question... I am assuming that we will need
to have both the 4.1.5 "version" of main/avmedia/source/gstreamer
as well as the 4.2.0 version as well both in 4.2.0 now. But doesn't
the configure stuff look for the libs and headers via pkg-config?
You mention that we do something similar w/ ODBC so before I
start digging into that, are there any helpful pointers on what
we need to do?

 That is, enabling gstreamer during the build will determine what
 version is supported and then use that?
 
 ie, sort of merge how AOO415 and AOO420 currently do things related
 to gstreamer?

We do this not only for Linux but macOS as well... It's just that with
the mac, it is easier to build for older systems even when
building *on* a newer one. Not so w/ Linux, esp when dependencies
are based on kernel versions.

I also agree that we should try Damjan's patch but, afaict, no one
has seen it :-)

How popular a system is is not very relevant.

What matters is: we build OpenOffice on an "old" system since this makes 
it compatible with more recent systems. If we built OpenOffice on the 
latest Ubuntu, it wouldn't work on older Linux systems.


CentOS is good because it has very long term support, which allows us to 
establish a common baseline: for example, all Apache OpenOffice releases 
run on the same platform and were built on CentOS 5, so there is no risk 
that 4.1.2 works for you and 4.1.3 doesn't. Ubuntu LTS does not offer 
equivalent support.


Anyway, I also believe we should try with Damjan's patch. But apparently 
the patch never made it to the list. https://s.apache.org/xRCa does not 
show the patch either.


Regards,
  Andrea.

Does nobody understand, that with that run-time dynamic linking patch I
wrote, and some extra work to resurrect gstreamer 0.1 support from SVN, you
could build both gstreamer 0.1 and 1.0 plugins on CentOS 6, and then use
whichever gstreamer version is installed at run-time?

CentOS6 does not, and that is, or has been, our official

I think all recent versions (6-7 years?) of linux use gstreamer 1.0.

As near as I can determine, neither CentOS 6 or CentOS 7 provide 
gstreamer 1.0. The pack namings for CentOS7 were different than for 
CentOS 6, but, I think they're both gstreamer 0.10. I couldn't find 
gsteamer 1.0 in any of the accepted "extra" repos for either of these 
either. Maybe someone else can investigate. I, personally, don't plan on 
using a different Linux.

Currently, even though GStreamer libraries are not used during the

Re: Openoffice and unsupported gstreamer 0.10 branch (for openoffice libavmediagst.so library)

[Damjan Jovanovic]

I've made a preliminary patch that does run-time dynamic linking to the
GStreamer libraries, only linking to $(GTK_LIBS) at build time. This should
ultimately allow you to build on CentOS 6.

The patch is attached. It's pretty ugly: lots of GStreamer macros expand to
functions and thus had to be inlined and hacked to use our function
pointers. GStreamer clearly wasn't designed for run-time dynamic linking.
It builds but I haven't tested it and won't be able to for a while.

Currently, even though GStreamer libraries are not used during the build,
you still need GStreamer installed, so pkg-config can detect
$(GSTREAMER_CFLAGS) for the header files we need. Our configure.ac thus
needs some patching too. That can be an exercise for the reader ;).

Linux Community Builds for 4.2.0 (Was: Re: Openoffice and unsupported gstreamer 0.10 branch (for openoffice libavmediagst.so library))

[Jim Jagielski]

That is the conundrum.

What we could do is, just as we provide both Linux 32 and 64 bit builds,
another set of Linux builds that do, and do not, include gstreamer 1.0.

The ones that do would need to use Ubuntu as the build platform and
the ones that don't could continue to use CentOS.

I can continue to do all the Linux community builds since I have
CentOS 6.4 and Ubuntu 14.04 (but just the 64bit Ubuntu at
present).

[Damjan Jovanovic]

If GStreamer is that problematic to obtain, we could import these 30
symbols that we use from it via run-time dynamic linking. That way we don't
need the GStreamer libraries to link against at compile time, only the
header files:

  DF *UND*0060
gst_video_overlay_get_type
  DF *UND*0196
gst_bus_set_sync_handler
  DF *UND*003b
gst_message_get_structure
  DF *UND*00b1
gst_element_query_duration
  DF *UND*0136
gst_pad_get_current_caps
  DF *UND*000a
gst_pipeline_get_bus
  DF *UND*007f
gst_bus_get_type
  DF *UND*0174
gst_object_unref
  DF *UND*00fc

  DF *UND*01ea
gst_element_factory_make
  DF *UND*0148

We already do with ODBC for example, where we will link against either
iODBC or unixODBC depending on which is installed at run-time.

CentOS 6 ships with glib (package name: glib2) 2.28 as per
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6/os/x86_64/Packages/

So this is indeed an issue: we would need a distribution that ships with 
glib >= 2.32 (without considering other possible dependencies at the 
moment) to build.


On the other hand, we want something as old as possible since builds 
done with too recent versions of glibc (not to confuse with the above, 
and set at 2.12 in CentOS 6) won't work for users of old Linux-based 
systems.

Can we define the problem better?

I assume the gstreamer license hasn't changed. So the licensing issues 
holds the same whether we use 0.10 or 1.x.


On CentOS 5 we used to install it in the system as described here:
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO/Step_by_step#CentOS_5_for_AOO_4.1.x
(packages gstreamer-devel and gstreamer-plugins-base-devel)

CentOS 6 indeed still ships with 0.10
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6/os/x86_64/Packages/
and it seems that EPEL (a semi-official extra repository with additional 
packages) does not ship it either.


The reason for using CentOS 6 is "we use a Linux system that is old 
enough for any user system to be the same or more recent"; this is to 
prevent glibc conflicts.


So the real question is: does gstreamer 1.0 (or its dependencies) 
require a glibc version that is higher than 2.12 (as found in CentOS 6), 
or other dependencies that have the same problem? Otherwise we can 
probably look into building it.

Just FYI: Ubuntu drinks its source from upstream Debian pool, i.e.,
< https://packages.debian.org/stretch/libgstreamer1.0-dev >

Thus, assuming a 'switch', careful evaluate if a Debian 'meta-framework' --
as some have called it -- might be a better 'official' build platform for
AOO community releases.

Of course, just my *unsolicited* input.

If gstreamer 1.0 was incorporated, how much larger would the compiled code be?

If builds moved to Ubuntu, a long-term support version should be chosen; 
support for LTS version is 5 years.  Ubuntu 18.04 will issue in April; 16.04 
will be supported until 2021.

Just a FYI that until we decide on this, 4.2.0-dev is in a holding 
pattern...

Either we make gstreamer 1.0 an external download dependency,
so we can continue to build on CentOS6, or else we decide that
we switch to Ubuntu as our "official" build platform for our
community releases.

Yeah, I'm running into that myself... So +1 for it being handled as
an external download dependency.

That is, of course, assuming that we are still OK with having CentOS as
our "official" production community release environs, which I think
we are.

I can send you a ZIP of that directory. It should be complete as I have

​Just a short note on this. Thanks for putting in the effort on applying
the gstreamer update.

The last mention I saw about production environments indicate AOO was going
to CentOS 6.x for the next release. Unfortunately, I can not locate a
bonafide CentOS6.x  repo containing gstreamer 1.0 for use directly as part
of the indigenous build environment. So, it may need to be included in the
external downloaded libraries in /main/external_deps.lst.

I can send you a ZIP of that directory. It should be complete as I have
done a build for all languages lately.

I'm trying to do a clean build of trunk and I'm stuck too (I do have a 
local cache, but it has the AOO415 dependencies only). Does anyone have 
a copy of ext_sources for trunk configured with --enable-category-b?


If we have it, I would then setup a temporary mirror on home.apache.org 
and use it while SourceForge restores service.


Note: the ASF asks that we do not use a *.apache.org space for hosting 
external libraries due to possible license confusion for end users. So 
we've historically used Google Code, and now SourceForge. But we 
definitely need a backup solution, even a password-protected one to 
avoid any possible confusion for users. We still need to be able to 
build OpenOffice with release options while SourceForge is down.

Thank you. When testing, remember to:
* make sure the "dev" libraries for gstreamer 1.0 and gstreamer-video 1.0
are installed (on Ubuntu, that's libgstreamer1.0-dev and
libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev)
* run "autoconf"
* pass --enable-gstreamer as a flag to "./configure" (it's disabled by
default. Should it be?)

 Thank you. The video plays, but in a separate window instead of being

 Distributing the library separately from the rest of AOO would be
 difficult. Binary compatibility between Ubuntu and Gentoo, bitness, trunk
 vs 4.1.5. New UNO components also have to be registered in AOO somehow; I
 only know how to do it with .component files at compile time.

 It will likely only end up in SVN trunk, possibly version 4.2.0.

sorry dont have much time. I added a bug to bugtracker and added roughly 
the situation.


Thanks Damjan, and thanks everyone else.


can someone look at the bugs

https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=44114

and

https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=89802


I think they are related and can be closed?!


All the best

gstreamer 0.1 the "prepare-window-handle" event is generated during
createPlayerWindow() but in 1.0 it isn't.

My changes have been committed to SVN trunk in revision 1825700.

Changing the version number to 1.0 breaks the build due a missing

it breaks due to changed gstreamer API functions. There is also

Will certainly do. I, for one, am grateful for your work -- as it
improves an AOO feature that was trailing behind LO.

 Hello,

 I created simple presentation file with title and video frame

 The archive contains 327.odp and 327.webm files that must be placed in
 the same directory before presentation file .odp is opening.

 The video is playing automatically after pressing F5 key (fullscreen
 presentation mode). Or after pressing "Play" button on the bar that
 usually appears at the bottom then video-frame of presentation is
 selected.
 I't work for me in current Apache OpenOffice 4.1.5 and

 Also I installed "gst-plugins-ivorbis:0.10" and
 "gst-plugins-pango:0.10".


 Could you also share rebuilded library for testing? Is it compatible
 with current AOO 4.1.5 build?

 Thank yo in advance.

Re: Openoffice and unsupported gstreamer 0.10 branch (for openoffice libavmediagst.so library)

[Damjan Jovanovic]

I finally cracked it. The gstreamer pipeline gets created early, during
construction of the avmedia/source/gstreamer's Player object, yet the
window to play in is only created later, when createPlayerWindow() is
called. To use that window and thus embed video into the document, we have
to set that window's handle to the GstVideoOverlay using
gst_video_overlay_set_window_handle(), but by then it's too late. Either
the pipeline creation would have to be deferred until createPlayerWindow(),
when we know the window to use, or we would have to switch windows
with gst_video_overlay_set_window_handle() a live pipeline. I've done the
latter and it works well. I don't know how it ever worked before, maybe in
gstreamer 0.1 the "prepare-window-handle" event is generated during
createPlayerWindow() but in 1.0 it isn't.

My changes have been committed to SVN trunk in revision 1825700.

Torokhov, Jose, Peter: thank you for all your support. Please test and
report any problems.

[Damjan Jovanovic]

Unfortunately it looks like the problem is harder than just getting it to
build. Even after fixing some more APIs and getting it to play, a separate
player window is created. To get the player window to embed like it should,
we need to set the X window id on the GstVideoOverlay using
gst_video_overlay_set_window_handle() when a "prepare-window-handle" event
is delivered for which gst_is_video_overlay_prepare_window_handle_message()
returns true. But for some mysterious reason
gst_is_video_overlay_prepare_window_handle_message() never returns true.
Forcefully setting the X window id on all events does get it to embed,
badly, with lots of warnings, and the window gets distorted when scrolling
and doesn't respond to mouse clicks .

I thought it was obvious the acknowledgement was directed at Damjan.

Notwithstanding, unlike you, prior OO 'chairs' never even acknowledged

That's why I think you are doing great job, Peter.

 Unfortunately I suppose I have no enough programming skills
 to understand how build system works and the difference between
 gstreamer-0.10 and 1.0 API/ABI .

[Damjan Jovanovic]

Thank you. The video plays, but in a separate window instead of being
embedded in the document. I'll continue trying.

Distributing the library separately from the rest of AOO would be
difficult. Binary compatibility between Ubuntu and Gentoo, bitness, trunk
vs 4.1.5. New UNO components also have to be registered in AOO somehow; I
only know how to do it with .component files at compile time.

It will likely only end up in SVN trunk, possibly version 4.2.0.

Cool! I had requested the same feature from OO long time ago. And no
one answered. I think Peter is doing a great job.

I will test your patch in my next build as I am also excited about
that feature. BIG THANK YOU!

Re: Openoffice and unsupported gstreamer 0.10 branch (for openoffice libavmediagst.so library)

[Torokhov Sergey]

Hello,

I created simple presentation file with title and video frame
("Agent 237:operation barbershop" from Blender Animation Studio).

https://yadi.sk/d/shOKuCcS3StDk

The archive contains 327.odp and 327.webm files that must be placed in
the same directory before presentation file .odp is opening.

The video is playing automatically after pressing F5 key (fullscreen
presentation mode). Or after pressing "Play" button on the bar that
usually appears at the bottom then video-frame of presentation is
selected.
I't work for me in current Apache OpenOffice 4.1.5 and
gstreamer-plugins:0.10.

As I use Gentoo I installed "gst-plugins-meta:0.10" with next options:

USE="ffmpeg quicktime http wavpack dv dvb vcd musepack vpx oss libass
lame theora v4l" emerge gst-plugins-meta:0.10

Also I installed "gst-plugins-ivorbis:0.10" and
"gst-plugins-pango:0.10".


Could you also share rebuilded library for testing? Is it compatible
with current AOO 4.1.5 build?

Thank yo in advance.

I've successfully patched our gstreamer plugin to build with gstreamer-1.0,
but how do I test it? Does someone have a sample document that uses
gstreamer?

The patch is attached for anyone interested. Parts may still be wrong, eg.
filter names. Changes between GStreamer 0.1 and 1.0 are documented here:

Hi

I've begun having a look.

We currently test for gstreamer in configure.ac but don't use the result,
re-running pkg-config in a main/avmedia's makefile.

Changing the version number to 1.0 breaks the build due a missing header
file. Removing that "#include" gets it a little further, but it breaks due
to changed gstreamer API functions. There is also lots of warnings about
deprecated GDK functions. I'll continue trying later.

We should really get rid of gstreamer 0.1 ASAP one way or the other: given
how it's been unmaintained since 2013, it may well have security
vulnerabilities. We can't ship it to users since its license is
incompatible, but having users install it separately still invites trouble.

Damjan

[Torokhov Sergey]

Hello, Peter.

Thank you for reply and for adding additional info into AOO wiki.

Yes I'm posted on that project is short of developers this time.
I hope that current implementation still will hold several years
because gstreamer-0.10 of long process of skiping this brach
in linux distributibes. 

Maybe during this transition period at least the way to  standalone build 
of appropriate multimedia AOO library will be found if it possible at all.

Unfortunately I suppose I have no enough programming skills
to understand how build system works and the difference between gstreamer-0.10 
and 1.0 API/ABI .

Re: Openoffice and unsupported gstreamer 0.10 branch (for openoffice libavmediagst.so library)

[Peter Kovacs]

Hello,

I have hoped that you will get a more positive answer then mine.
I have found no evidence that we have ever worked on an update of 
multimedia Libs in any direction. The only thing I have found is someone 
tried to compile the old 0.1.0 Gstreamer interface on modern systems.
I think it is unlikely we will see an update in 4.2.0, since there is no 
evidence of a volunteer working on it. Of course we would like to have a 
better solution then we have now.


In order to advance step by step I have started to collect Information 
of possible solutions. And prepared to collect more Informations where 
maybe another volunteer could start on.
I have not started any dicusssion, because my limit on driving topics 
has been been reached. If you like you could help collecting the 
informations needed to implement the stuff. If you have programming 
skills you are welcome to try, but I believe it is a challenging Journey.
My current plan is to reduce all the szuff that makes work on Open 
Office step by step in order to get into a better shape that we can work 
on topics. But currently this is all but in infant state. I welcome any 
help.


The Point of Interest List I have started you find at 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=67633711 
it collects all sort of topics I think I need look into.
The Wikipage I have started to collect Information for a new multimedia 
backened you find at 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/new+multimedia+Backend


I am sorry I could not invest more time in this point.

All the best
Peter

Openoffice and unsupported gstreamer 0.10 branch (for openoffice libavmediagst.so library)

[Torokhov Sergey]

Hello, all.

Currently the OpenOffice uses internal "libavmediagst.so" library that compiled 
with GStreamer 0.10 version
that is unsupported since 2012. This library is used for gstreamer support in 
Linux to play multimedia content in presentation
of Impress  component.


Is it planning to migrate for "libavmediagst.so" library to GStreamer 1.0 
branch in new OpenOffice releases?
Especially it's interesting concerns being prepared OpenOffice 4.2.0. Or maybe 
is it possible to
rebuild it with GStreamer 1.0 for 4.1.6 release if it's planning?


Or is it possible to release in addition an official OpenOffice 
"libavmediagst.so" library compiled with GStreamer 1.0
that could be downloaded separately to replace current "libavmediagst.so" 
library
