has_threads? | has_threads? -> aBoolean |
| Query if GStreamer has threads enabled.
|
init | init(*args) -> true |
| Initializes the GStreamer library (using *args), setting up internal path
lists, registering built-in elements, and loading standard plugins.
If *args are ommited, GStreamer will be initialized using arguments from the
Ruby command line.
This function will always return 'true'. A RuntimeError exception will be
raised if GStreamer could not be initialized.
|
set_debug | set_debug(aBoolean) -> nil |
| Enable or disable debug mode, according to the provided parameter.
When debug mode is on, Ruby/GStreamer will print various information
on the screen (as instance, when the GC cames), useful to trace and fix bugs.
|
use_threads | use_threads(aBoolean) -> aBoolean |
| Instructs the core to turn on/off threading.
When threading is turned off, all thread operations such as
mutexes and conditionals are turned into NOPs.
Use this if you want absolute minimal overhead and you don't
use any threads in the pipeline.
Returns the provided boolean value.
|
version | version -> anArray |
| Gets the version number of the GStreamer library, in an array
of 3 fixnums, which represent major, minor and macro numbers.
