h1. WIPVideo
Notes while video is a work in progress. Repository: http://devel.ag-projects.com/cgi-bin/darcsweb.cgi?r=saul/python-sipsimple-video;a=summary
h2. Dependencies
The following dependencies are required to build PJSIP with video support (including H264)
* SDL 2
* ffmpeg (libavformat, libswscale, libavcodec, libavutil)
* libx264
Versions I have tried:
* SDL (2.0.0-7655)
* ffmpeg (2.0 release)
* libx264 (snapshot-20130806-2245-stable)
h2. Patches
-If the above versions are used, PJSIP needs to be patched with the attached patch (avcodec.diff) or it won't compile. This does not occur when compiling it against the latest library versions on Debian unstable.- No longer needed.
h2. Compiling dependencies
All dependencies will be compiled to a directory in the user's HOME directory:
<pre>
export MY_VIDEO_LIBS=$HOME/work/ag-projects/video/local
</pre>
h3. libx264
<pre>
./configure --enable-shared --disable-avs --disable-swscale --disable-lavf --disable-ffms --disable-gpac --prefix=$MY_VIDEO_LIBS
make
make install
# If a 32bit build is wanted, then run this configure instead:
./configure --host=i386-apple-darwin --enable-shared --disable-avs --disable-swscale --disable-lavf --disable-ffms --disable-gpac --prefix=$MY_VIDEO_LIBS
</pre>
h3. ffmpeg
<pre>
# Some exports
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$MY_VIDEO_LIBS/lib/pkgconfig
./configure --enable-shared --disable-static --enable-memalign-hack --enable-gpl --enable-libx264 --prefix=$MY_VIDEO_LIBS --extra-cflags="`pkg-config --cflags x264`" --extra-ldflags="`pkg-config --libs x264`"
make
make install
# If a 32bit build is wanted do:
./configure --enable-shared --disable-static --enable-memalign-hack --enable-gpl --enable-libx264 --prefix=$MY_VIDEO_LIBS --extra-cflags="`pkg-config --cflags x264`" --extra-ldflags="`pkg-config --libs x264`" --cc="gcc -m32" --disable-asm
# TODO: I WANT MY ASM
</pre>
h3. SDL
<pre>
./configure --disable-audio --prefix=$MY_VIDEO_LIBS
make
make install
# If a 32bit build is wanted:
CFLAGS="-arch i386" CXXFLAGS="-arch i386" LDFLAGS="-arch i386" ./configure --disable-audio --prefix=$MY_VIDEO_LIBS
</pre>
h2. Compiling PJSIP (pjsua, for testing)
<pre>
svn co http://svn.pjsip.org/repos/pjproject/trunk pjsip
cd pjsip
echo "#define PJMEDIA_HAS_VIDEO 1" > pjlib/include/pj/config_site.h
./configure --with-sdl=$MY_VIDEO_LIBS --with-ffmpeg=$MY_VIDEO_LIBS
make dep
make
# pjsua will be located in pjsip-apps/bin/
</pre>
h2. Proposed API
API for video components is based on 2 different types of video capable entities:
* VideoProducer: a source for video data, for example a video camera or a remote video stream
* VideoConsumer: a sink or destination for video data, for example a video rendering window
h3. Data flow
Data flow works in _pull_ fashion, that is, a producer doesn't start to produce data until there is a consumer which will consume it.
h3. VideoProducer
Produces video data.
Internal API:
* _add_consumer: attach a consumer, called by the consumer
* _remove_consumer: detach a consumer from a producer, called by the consumer
* _start: start producing video data
* _stop: stop producing video data
Public API:
* close: remove all consumers and stop producing video data
* producer_port: pointer to the pjmedia_port object
h3. VideoConsumer
Consumes video data.
Internal API:
* _start: start consuming video data
* _stop: stop consuming video data
Public API:
* attach: tie this consumer to a producer, in order to render the video data generated by the producer
* detach: untie this consumer from a producer
* consumer_port: pointer to the pjmedia_port object
