I discovered (and, I hope, fixed) a bug in our mailing list software
that was apparently causing the list's digesting and archiving
mechanism to choke on some Unicode characters that were in Eyal's
message (and quoted in my response).
Therefore, I'm sending my response again, in the hope that it will
get through to everyone this time. (This may be the third time that
some of you have seen this message; if so, my apologies.)
------------------
Question #1: How should Notify MPEG4LiveSource::doGetNextFrame ?
while(true)
{
fWatchVariable = 0;
dummyTask(NULL); // 100 ms to awake a sleeping server.
env->taskScheduler().doEventLoop(&fWatchVariable);
if (fWatchVariable =1)
{
// How to Invoke MPEG4LiveSource::doGetNextFrame?
printf("\nEventThrown=%d,",fWatchVariable);
}
}
Assuming that "fWatchVariable" gets set when new data arrives for
your "MPEG4LiveSource" object, then you would handle this event by
calling whatever function - in your "MPEG4LIVESource" class - you
have defined to handle the arrival of new data.
(E.g, if you were to use our "DeviceSource" code as a model
("liveMedia/DeviceSource.cpp"), this would be the "deliverFrame()"
member function.)
Question #2: Is It ok to use MPEG4VideoStreamFramer or should I use
MPEG4VideoStreamDiscreteFramer in order to parse test.m4e file.?
".m4e" files should always be streamed using the
"MPEG4VideoStreamFramer" class (because files deliver a byte stream -
not a stream of discrete frames).
void MPEG4LiveSource::doGetNextFrame() {
if (!isCurrentlyAwaitingData())
return; // we're not ready for the data yet
// WaitForSingleObject( hEvent, INFINITE ); //
Question #3: Try to sync both thread Ignoring
<http://www.live555.com/liveMedia/doxygen/html/classTaskScheduler.html>TaskScheduler::doEventLoop()
, is that recommendable?
No! Your "doGetNextFrame()" function should never block. If no data
is immediately available for delivery, then "doGetNextFrame()" should
just return. (Again, see the "DeviceSource" code for an
illustration.)
nextTask() =
envir().taskScheduler().scheduleDelayedTask(0,(TaskFunc*)FramedSource::afterGetting,
this); // Question #4: Is that good to call suitable here?
Yes. This tells the downstream object that data has been delivered to it.
Question #5: Run over the Mailing list I could not found any
example of streaming from DirectShopw filter, Is there a problem
with that approach?
No. Several other people have done this. (However, I personally do
not use 'DirectShow'.)
