Add an utility to make possible to check various features of VideoEncoder. 2 GStreamer plugins are used in a chain like this: (1) input pipeline -> (2) video encoder -> (3) output pipeline While converting output from (1) is compared with output of (3) making sure the streaming is working correctly. You can set various options: - part of the input pipeline description to allow specifying different video from GStreamer test ones to a video file; - the encoder to use; - different image properties to use for (2) input: - different bit depth; - top/down or down/up; - initial bitrate. The idea is to use this helper in combination with a shell script and some video sources to make able to test various settings. Also can be used to extend the current encoder list. As an example you can use a command like $ ./test-gst -e gstreamer:vp8 -i \ 'filesrc location=bbb_sunflower_1080p_30fps_normal.mp4 \ ! decodebin ! videoconvert' to check vp8 encoding. Currently it does not emulate bandwidth changes as stream reports from the client are not coded. Signed-off-by: Frediano Ziglio <fziglio@redhat.com> Acked-by: Pavel Grunt <pgrunt@redhat.com> |

SPICE: Simple Protocol for Independent Computing Environments
=============================================================
SPICE is a remote display system built for virtual environments which
allows you to view a computing 'desktop' environment not only on the
machine where it is running, but from anywhere on the Internet and
from a wide variety of machine architectures.
Installation
------------
The SPICE package uses GNU autotools, so the build install process
follows the standard process documented in the INSTALL file. As a
quick start you can do
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc \
--localstatedir=/var --libdir=/usr/lib
make
sudo make install
Or to install into a private user specific location
./configure --prefix=$HOME/spice
make
make install
The following mandatory dependancies are required in order to
build SPICE
Spice protocol >= 0.9.0
Pixman >= 0.17.7
OpenSSL
libjpeg
zlib
Cyrus-SASL
The following optional dependancies increase the available
functionality
GE Gui >= 0.6.0, < 0.7.0 (GUI app support)
OpenGL (GUI app support)
Alsa (Linux support)
XRandR >= 1.2 (X11 support)
Xinerama >= 1.0 (X11 support)
libcacard >= 0.1.2 (Smartcard support)
Communication
-------------
To communicate with the development team, or to post patches
there is a technical mailing list:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/spice-devel
There is also a mailing list for new release announcements:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/spice-announce/
To view known bugs, or report new bugs, in SPICE visit
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/describecomponents.cgi?product=Spice
Bugs found when using an OS distribution's binary packages should
be reported to the OS vendors' own bug tracker first.
The latest SPICE code can be found in GIT at:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/spice/
