Class MediaStream

All Implemented Interfaces:
Paintable, Proxy
Direct Known Subclasses:
MediaFile, MediaStream.MediaStream$Impl

@Generated("org.javagi.JavaGI") public abstract class MediaStream extends GObject implements Paintable

The integration point for media playback inside GTK.

GTK provides an implementation of the GtkMediaStream interface that is called MediaFile.

Apart from application-facing API for stream playback, GtkMediaStream has a number of APIs that are only useful for implementations and should not be used in applications: prepared(boolean, boolean, boolean, long), unprepared(), update(long), ended(), seekSuccess(), seekFailed(), gerror(GError), error(Quark, int, String, Object...), MediaStream.errorValist.

  • Constructor Details

    • MediaStream

      public MediaStream(MemorySegment address)
      Create a MediaStream instance for the provided memory address.
      Parameters:
      address - the memory address of the native object
    • MediaStream

      public MediaStream()
      Create a new MediaStream.
  • Method Details

    • getType

      public static @Nullable Type getType()
      Get the GType of the MediaStream class.
      Returns:
      the GType
    • getMemoryLayout

      public static MemoryLayout getMemoryLayout()
      The memory layout of the native struct.
      Returns:
      the memory layout
    • asParent

      protected MediaStream asParent()
      Return this instance as if it were its parent type. Comparable to the Java super keyword, but ensures the parent typeclass is also used in native code.
      Overrides:
      asParent in class GObject
      Returns:
      the instance as if it were its parent type
    • ended

      @Deprecated public void ended()
      Deprecated.
      Use streamEnded() instead

      Pauses the media stream and marks it as ended.

      This is a hint only, calls to play() may still happen.

      The media stream must be prepared when this function is called.

    • error

      public void error(Quark domain, int code, String format, Object... varargs)

      Sets this MediaStream into an error state using a printf()-style format string.

      This is a utility function that calls gerror(GError). See that function for details.

      Parameters:
      domain - error domain
      code - error code
      format - printf()-style format for error message
      varargs - parameters for message format
    • gerror

      public void gerror(GError error)

      Sets this MediaStream into an error state.

      This will pause the stream (you can check for an error via getError() in your GtkMediaStream.pause() implementation), abort pending seeks and mark the stream as prepared.

      if the stream is already in an error state, this call will be ignored and the existing error will be retained.

      To unset an error, the stream must be reset via a call to unprepared().

      Parameters:
      error - the GError to set
    • getDuration

      public long getDuration()

      Gets the duration of the stream.

      If the duration is not known, 0 will be returned.

      Returns:
      the duration of the stream or 0 if not known.
    • getEnded

      public boolean getEnded()
      Returns whether the streams playback is finished.
      Returns:
      true if playback is finished
    • getError

      public @Nullable GError getError()

      If the stream is in an error state, returns the GError explaining that state.

      Any type of error can be reported here depending on the implementation of the media stream.

      A media stream in an error cannot be operated on, calls like play() or seek(long) will not have any effect.

      GtkMediaStream itself does not provide a way to unset an error, but implementations may provide options. For example, a MediaFile will unset errors when a new source is set, e.g. with MediaFile.setFile(File).

      Returns:
      null if not in an error state or the GError of the stream
    • getLoop

      public boolean getLoop()

      Returns whether the stream is set to loop.

      See setLoop(boolean) for details.

      Returns:
      true if the stream should loop
    • getMuted

      public boolean getMuted()

      Returns whether the audio for the stream is muted.

      See setMuted(boolean) for details.

      Returns:
      true if the stream is muted
    • getPlaying

      public boolean getPlaying()
      Return whether the stream is currently playing.
      Returns:
      true if the stream is playing
    • getTimestamp

      public long getTimestamp()
      Returns the current presentation timestamp in microseconds.
      Returns:
      the timestamp in microseconds
    • getVolume

      public double getVolume()

      Returns the volume of the audio for the stream.

      See setVolume(double) for details.

      Returns:
      volume of the stream from 0.0 to 1.0
    • hasAudio

      public boolean hasAudio()
      Returns whether the stream has audio.
      Returns:
      true if the stream has audio
    • hasVideo

      public boolean hasVideo()
      Returns whether the stream has video.
      Returns:
      true if the stream has video
    • isPrepared

      public boolean isPrepared()

      Returns whether the stream has finished initializing.

      At this point the existence of audio and video is known.

      Returns:
      true if the stream is prepared
    • isSeekable

      public boolean isSeekable()

      Checks if a stream may be seekable.

      This is meant to be a hint. Streams may not allow seeking even if this function returns true. However, if this function returns false, streams are guaranteed to not be seekable and user interfaces may hide controls that allow seeking.

      It is allowed to call seek(long) on a non-seekable stream, though it will not do anything.

      Returns:
      true if the stream may support seeking
    • isSeeking

      public boolean isSeeking()
      Checks if there is currently a seek operation going on.
      Returns:
      true if a seek operation is ongoing.
    • pause

      public void pause()

      Pauses playback of the stream.

      If the stream is not playing, do nothing.

    • play

      public boolean play()

      Starts playing the stream.

      If the stream is in error or already playing, do nothing.

    • prepared

      @Deprecated public void prepared(boolean hasAudio, boolean hasVideo, boolean seekable, long duration)
      Same as gtk_media_stream_stream_prepared().
      Parameters:
      hasAudio - true if the stream should advertise audio support
      hasVideo - true if the stream should advertise video support
      seekable - true if the stream should advertise seekability
      duration - The duration of the stream or 0 if unknown
    • realize

      public void realize(Surface surface)

      Called by users to attach the media stream to a GdkSurface they manage.

      The stream can then access the resources of surface for its rendering purposes. In particular, media streams might want to create a GdkGLContext or sync to the GdkFrameClock.

      Whoever calls this function is responsible for calling unrealize(Surface) before either the stream or surface get destroyed.

      Multiple calls to this function may happen from different users of the video, even with the same surface. Each of these calls must be followed by its own call to unrealize(Surface).

      It is not required to call this function to make a media stream work.

      Parameters:
      surface - a GdkSurface
    • seek

      public void seek(long timestamp)

      Start a seek operation on this MediaStream to timestamp.

      If timestamp is out of range, it will be clamped.

      Seek operations may not finish instantly. While a seek operation is in process, the Gtk.MediaStream:seeking property will be set.

      When calling gtk_media_stream_seek() during an ongoing seek operation, the new seek will override any pending seek.

      Parameters:
      timestamp - timestamp to seek to.
    • seekFailed

      public void seekFailed()

      Ends a seek operation started via GtkMediaStream.seek() as a failure.

      This will not cause an error on the stream and will assume that playback continues as if no seek had happened.

      See seekSuccess() for the other way of ending a seek.

    • seekSuccess

      public void seekSuccess()

      Ends a seek operation started via GtkMediaStream.seek() successfully.

      This function will unset the GtkMediaStream:ended property if it was set.

      See seekFailed() for the other way of ending a seek.

    • setLoop

      public void setLoop(boolean loop)

      Sets whether the stream should loop.

      In this case, it will attempt to restart playback from the beginning instead of stopping at the end.

      Not all streams may support looping, in particular non-seekable streams. Those streams will ignore the loop setting and just end.

      Parameters:
      loop - true if the stream should loop
    • setMuted

      public void setMuted(boolean muted)

      Sets whether the audio stream should be muted.

      Muting a stream will cause no audio to be played, but it does not modify the volume. This means that muting and then unmuting the stream will restore the volume settings.

      If the stream has no audio, calling this function will still work but it will not have an audible effect.

      Parameters:
      muted - true if the stream should be muted
    • setPlaying

      public void setPlaying(boolean playing)
      Starts or pauses playback of the stream.
      Parameters:
      playing - whether to start or pause playback
    • setVolume

      public void setVolume(double volume)

      Sets the volume of the audio stream.

      This function call will work even if the stream is muted.

      The given volume should range from 0.0 for silence to 1.0 for as loud as possible. Values outside of this range will be clamped to the nearest value.

      If the stream has no audio or is muted, calling this function will still work but it will not have an immediate audible effect. When the stream is unmuted, the new volume setting will take effect.

      Parameters:
      volume - New volume of the stream from 0.0 to 1.0
    • streamEnded

      public void streamEnded()

      Pauses the media stream and marks it as ended.

      This is a hint only, calls to play() may still happen.

      The media stream must be prepared when this function is called.

      Since:
      4.4
    • streamPrepared

      public void streamPrepared(boolean hasAudio, boolean hasVideo, boolean seekable, long duration)

      Called by GtkMediaStream implementations to advertise the stream being ready to play and providing details about the stream.

      Note that the arguments are hints. If the stream implementation cannot determine the correct values, it is better to err on the side of caution and return true. User interfaces will use those values to determine what controls to show.

      This function may not be called again until the stream has been reset via streamUnprepared().

      Parameters:
      hasAudio - true if the stream should advertise audio support
      hasVideo - true if the stream should advertise video support
      seekable - true if the stream should advertise seekability
      duration - The duration of the stream or 0 if unknown
      Since:
      4.4
    • streamUnprepared

      public void streamUnprepared()

      Resets a given media stream implementation.

      streamPrepared(boolean, boolean, boolean, long) can then be called again.

      This function will also reset any error state the stream was in.

      Since:
      4.4
    • unprepared

      @Deprecated public void unprepared()
      Deprecated.
      Use streamUnprepared() instead.
      Same as gtk_media_stream_stream_unprepared().
    • unrealize

      public void unrealize(Surface surface)

      Undoes a previous call to gtk_media_stream_realize().

      This causes the stream to release all resources it had allocated from surface.

      Parameters:
      surface - the GdkSurface the stream was realized with
    • update

      public void update(long timestamp)

      Media stream implementations should regularly call this function to update the timestamp reported by the stream.

      It is up to implementations to call this at the frequency they deem appropriate.

      The media stream must be prepared when this function is called.

      Parameters:
      timestamp - the new timestamp
    • updateAudio

      protected void updateAudio(boolean muted, double volume)
