Introduction

Why develop Landell?

FISL - Free software event that holds over 7000 people every year. TV SL was using gst-launch command lines to stream the event, after having tried other softwares. They started developing a software in java as a test.

Features

Filters and videobalance

Filters are changed while playing. There was a negotiation problem when changing to a filter that has a different colorspace. Workaround is to remove and re-add colorspaces when removing the effects.

Features

Multiple outputs

Each registered encoder has video (resolution, framerate) and encoding configuration (quality, bitrate). For each output, you choose which encoder to use. Common case is to record in high quality and stream with lower configurations. Each output can be stopped independently.

Features

Watermark and cairoimageoverlay

Restrictions in using existent elements: changing file while playing, resizing. An element to do all of it is simpler: just get image from file and paint it using cairo. Great flexibility: able to resize, change file and position without stopping. Landell uses cairoimageoverlay, but is looking forward to svgoverlay.

Features

Switching between sources

At first, Input-selector didn’t work with ximagesrc, because ximagesrc was using GST FORMAT BYTES. Landell just calls set format(gst.FORMAT TIME). It worked well until we had to switch to a filesrc and implement picture-in-picture. Now Videomixer is used as the ”input-selector”.

Future

What’s next?

Distribution between servers. Help GStreamer to help us. Make Landell more smart (detect supported resolution, choose configurations automatically...). Making it more reliable (not waiting for network). New features (Vignette, UI, etc).
