La risorsa GStreamer consente anche di catturare e riprodurre immagini video mediante una WebCam.

Sarà necessario avere installata nel sistema e richiamare nell'applicazione Gambas la libreria condivisa: "libgstreamer-1.0.so.0.2409.0 ".

Effettuare un video senza audio

Mostriamo di seguito due esempi di cattura e riproduzione di immagini video senza audio con una webCam in un'applicazione a riga di comando.

Impostazione passo passo della Pipeline con varie funzioni

In questo esempio si costruirà mediante varie funzioni una Pipeline per connettere i vari elementi di GStreamer:

Private webcam As Pointer


Library "libgstreamer-1.0:0.2409.0"

Private Enum GST_STATE_VOID_PENDING = 0, GST_STATE_NULL, GST_STATE_READY, GST_STATE_PAUSED, GST_STATE_PLAYING
Private Const GST_FORMAT_TIME As Integer = 3

' gst_init (int *argc, char **argv[])
' Initializes the GStreamer library, setting up internal path lists, registering built-in elements, and loading standard plugins.
Private Extern gst_init(argc As Pointer, argv As Pointer)

' GstElement* gst_pipeline_new (const gchar *name)
' Create a new pipeline with the given name.
Private Extern gst_pipeline_new(name As String) As Pointer

' GstElement * gst_element_factory_make(const gchar *factoryname, Const gchar * name)
' Create a new element of the type defined by the given element factory.
Private Extern gst_element_factory_make(factoryname As String, name As String) As Pointer
 
' void g_object_set(gpointer object, const gchar *first_property_name, ...)
' Sets properties on an object.
Private Extern g_object_set(gobject As Pointer, key As String, value As String, element_1 As Pointer)

' void gst_bin_add_many (GstBin *bin, GstElement *element_1, ...)
' Adds a NULL-terminated list of elements to a bin.
Private Extern gst_bin_add_many(bin As Pointer, element_1 As Pointer, element_2 As Pointer, element_3 As Pointer, element_4 As Pointer)

' gboolean gst_element_link_many (GstElement *element_1,  GstElement *element_2, ...)
' Chain together a series of elements.
Private Extern gst_element_link_many(element_1 As Pointer, element_2 As Pointer, element_3 As Pointer, element_4 As Pointer) As Boolean

' GstStateChangeReturn gst_element_set_state(GstElement *element, GstState state)
' Sets the state of the element.
Private Extern gst_element_set_state(gstelement As Pointer, state As Integer) As Integer
 
' gboolean gst_element_query_position (GstElement *element, GstFormat format, gint64 *cur)
' Queries an element for the stream position in nanoseconds.
Private Extern gst_element_query_position(gstelement As Pointer, gstformat As Pointer, cur As Pointer) As Boolean

' void gst_object_unref(gpointer object)
' Decrements the reference count on object.
Private Extern gst_object_unref(gobject As Pointer)


Public Sub Main()

 Dim pipeline, con, sink As Pointer
 Dim tempus As Long
     
 gst_init(0, 0)
  
 pipeline = gst_pipeline_new("webcam")
  
 webcam = gst_element_factory_make("v4l2src", "webcam")
  
 g_object_set(webcam, "device", "/dev/video0", 0)
 
 con = gst_element_factory_make("videoconvert", "convert")

 sink = gst_element_factory_make("xvimagesink", "image")
  
 gst_bin_add_many(pipeline, webcam, con, sink, 0)
  
 gst_element_link_many(webcam, con, sink, 0)
  
' Avviamo la riproduzione video:
 gst_element_set_state(pipeline, GST_STATE_PLAYING)

 Do
   gst_element_query_position(webcam, GST_FORMAT_TIME, VarPtr(tempus))
   Write "\rTempo: " & Time(0, 0, 0, tempus / 1000000)
   Wait 0.01
 Loop

End


Public Sub Application_Read()

Dim s As String

 Input #File.In, s
  
 Select Case s
   Case "p"
' Pone in pausa la riproduzione del file mediale
     gst_element_set_state(webcam, GST_STATE_PAUSED)
   Case "r"
' Riprende la riproduzione del file mediale
     gst_element_set_state(webcam, GST_STATE_PLAYING)
   Case "s"
' Arresta la riproduzione del file mediale
     gst_element_set_state(webcam, GST_STATE_NULL)
     gst_object_unref(webcam)
     Print "\nEsecuzione terminata."
     Quit
 End Select

End

Impostazione della Pipeline con la funzione "gst_parse_launch()"

In quest'altro esempio si costruirà una Pipeline, per connettere i vari elementi di GStreamer, con una linea di comando mediante la funzione esterna gst_parse_launch().

In questo esempio rendremo la cattura delle immagini più veloce e pertanto l'esecuzione del video risulterà essere più fluida:

Private webcam As Pointer


Library "libgstreamer-1.0:0.2409.0"

Private Enum GST_STATE_VOID_PENDING = 0, GST_STATE_NULL, GST_STATE_READY, GST_STATE_PAUSED, GST_STATE_PLAYING
Private Const GST_FORMAT_TIME As Integer = 3

' gst_init (int *argc, char **argv[])
' Initializes the GStreamer library, setting up internal path lists, registering built-in elements, and loading standard plugins.
Private Extern gst_init(argc As Pointer, argv As Pointer)

' GstElement * gst_parse_launch (const gchar *pipeline_description, GError **error)
' Create a new pipeline based on command line syntax.
Private Extern gst_parse_launch(description As String, GError As Pointer) As Pointer

' GstStateChangeReturn gst_element_set_state(GstElement *element, GstState state)
' Sets the state of the element.
Private Extern gst_element_set_state(gstelement As Pointer, state As Integer) As Integer
 
' gboolean gst_element_query_position (GstElement *element, GstFormat format, gint64 *cur)
' Queries an element for the stream position in nanoseconds.
Private Extern gst_element_query_position(gstelement As Pointer, gstformat As Pointer, cur As Pointer) As Boolean

' void gst_object_unref(gpointer object)
' Decrements the reference count on object.
Private Extern gst_object_unref(gobject As Pointer)


Public Sub Main()

 Dim tempus As Long

 gst_init(0, 0)

 webcam = gst_parse_launch("v4l2src ! tee name=t_vid ! queue ! videoconvert ! xvimagesink sync=false t_vid. ! queue ! videorate ! video/x-raw-yuv,framerate=30/1", 0)

' Avviamo la riproduzione video:
 gst_element_set_state(webcam, GST_STATE_PLAYING)

 Do
   gst_element_query_position(webcam, GST_FORMAT_TIME, VarPtr(tempus))
   Write #File.Out, "\rTempo: " & Time(0, 0, 0, tempus / 1000000)
   Wait 0.01
 Loop

End


Public Sub Application_Read()

 Dim s As String

 Input #File.In, s
  
 Select Case s
   Case "p"
' Pone in pausa la riproduzione del file mediale
     gst_element_set_state(webcam, GST_STATE_PAUSED)
   Case "r"
' Riprende la riproduzione del file mediale
     gst_element_set_state(webcam, GST_STATE_PLAYING)
   Case "s"
' Arresta la riproduzione del file mediale
     gst_element_set_state(webcam, GST_STATE_NULL)
     gst_object_unref(webcam)
     Print "\nEsecuzione terminata."
     Quit
 End Select

End

Altre possibili soluzioni di ripresa video con la funzione "gst_parse_launch()"

Dimensionando la finestra video ad esempio su 640x480:

webcam = gst_parse_launch("v4l2src ! video/x-raw,width=640,height=480,framerate=30/1 ! videoconvert ! xvimagesink", 0)

Aspetto 16/9:

webcam = gst_parse_launch("v4l2src ! video/x-raw,width=640,height=480,framerate=30/1 ! aspectratiocrop aspect-ratio=16/9 ! videoconvert ! xvimagesink", 0)
