Re: [RFC PATCH spice-gtk] Fix overlay for vaapisink

Hi,

The vaapisink plugin to support overlay requires the application
to provide the proper context. If you don't do so the plugin will
cause a crash of the application.
Note that overlay message should be handled synchronously and
not asynchronously so gst_bus_set_sync_handler is used.
To avoid possible thread errors from X11 call XInitThreads before
any X11 calls.

To test it probably you'll have to remove the gstreamer registry,
usually in ~/.cache/gstreamer-1.0/registry.x86_64.bin.

Linking directly to X11 or Gtk should be avoided and made in spice-gtk
instead. This require a bit of refactory of the interaction between
spice-gtk and spice-glib which after the direct rendering supports
seems a bit broken.

Hmm, yes we still have this issue :p


Currently we don't support Wayland. Tried to pass the wl_surface instead
of the XID but got some weird message about X11 errors (weird because
X11 should not be used at all! Maybe some gstreamer plugin is connected
to X11 emulation in wayland? Need investigating, unsetting, also from
gstreamer documentation is not clear what gstreamer is expecting
for gst_video_overlay_set_window_handle on wayland).

Note that this patch also add a dependency to libva. This could be
removed using dlopen/dlsym.

Performance are so better that you don't need to measure much!

Maybe would be nice to implement in a create_context function so later we can have something like:

create_gl_context()

So meanwhile i think we should have a patch that moves the overlay handling to the sync handler and another one for XInitThread which i guess both of these are needed regardless the context handling.


      gst_object_unref(bus);
decoder->clock = gst_pipeline_get_clock(GST_PIPELINE(decoder->pipeline));


Works well! and seems to indeed fix this vaapi issue. I also want to test with some experimental code that should
allow to resize, I'll update if something will come up.

(BTW for some reason doesn't apply on upstream master)


Snir.
