Original commit message from CVS: Mostly minor little changes, but two interesting things: 1) removed a pthread_join from the gst_thread_main_loop. commented out because the thread isn't supposed to run pthread_join, the main process is. 2) Fixed a major bug with cothreads in threads. Had to add MAP_FIXED to the mmap() of the cothread stack. Presumably the gilbc that ships with redhat 7.0 now places these mmap requests somewhat randomly. Since they *must* be exactly where we expect them, it was failing. MAP_FIXED forces it to put it where we say.
This is gnome-streamer, a framework for streaming media in GNOME. The fundamental design comes from the video pipeline at Oregon Graduate Institute, as well as some ideas from DirectMedia. It's based on plug-ins that will provide the various codec and other functionality. The interface hopefully is generic enough for various companies (ahem, Apple) to release binary codecs for Linux, until such time as they get a clue and release the source.
