Given that 10-bit colour is now becoming supported on Wayland, PipeWire
should be able to represent all the possible colour formats in order
for screen capture to work.
This commit adds all possible orderings of 10-bit RGB channels and 2
extra bits used for nothing or alpha in little endian to enum
spa_video_format. Note that Wayland only uses little endian for its
10-bit colour formats, and these are not the same as the big endian
formats in reverse order.
Subdirectories buffer, control, debug, monitor, pod, support and utils, others
are still missing. Headers are grouped either per subdirectory (e.g. buffer/
gets added to group spa_buffer) or per-file (e.g. spa_json is a separate
group), whatever seemed like the most sensible approach.
Use the DSP media subtype to describe DSP formats. DSP formats
don't include the rate, channels and channel position in the
format and must use the rate and duration from the position io. This
makes it possible to later change the samplerate dynamically without
having to renegotiate the graph.
The same goes for the video DSP format, which uses the io_video_size
from the io_position to get the size/stride. Set this up in the node
based on the defaults from the context.
Make it possible to define defaults in the daemon config file, such
as samplerate, quantum, video size and framerate. This is stored in
the context and used for the DSP formats.
Automatically parse and build key/value when in objects without having
to prefix the key with ":"
Automatically build control/value when in sequence without the "."
prefix.
Remove the builder with key/pod, taking a reference to the stack built
temporary pods is not allowed in c++. We can use the varargs version
with the same convenient syntax.
Remove the parser "*" option, it is unused.
Improve spa_pod_builder_add_* and spa_pod_parser_get_* and make them
look similar.
Only allow properties inside objects, this makes it easier to
iterate the object, which is needed for efficiently processing
control streams.
Add a choice type to mark variable properties.
SPA_TYPE_Enum -> SPA_TYPE_Id to avoid confusion with choice enum
Make it easier to allocate and initialize properties on the stack
Make more efficient methods to make objects.
SPA_ID_* -> SPA_TYPE_*. We use 'type' for all registered types.
ID refers to either a registered type or an enum.
Improve introspection of object ids. Make 0 an invalid enum and
use it to look up the object id type.
Move some type-info files together.
Swap type and id of the object, we first specify the type and then
the id because the meaning of the id depends on the object type.
Do not use dynamic types anymore. The reason is that it's difficult:
- to maintain a shared type database over a network.
- the extra overhead when translating between processes and for
maintaining the translation tables.
- race conditions in translating in RT-threads, this is a problem
because we want to make event streams.
We now have simple enums with types and extension points for all
types. This is also nicer to use in general.
We don't need the mapper anymore or pass strings around as types.
There is a parallel type info system to get more info about ids and
enums and their hierarchy. It can also be used for debugging.
Add an argument to pass the result param to the caller instead of
having the caller have to pick it up from the builder.
Improve docs for node, clock and monitor
Pass spa_pod everywhere instead of spa_pod_object.
Pass result argument to spa_pod_filter to make things a little
nicer.
