simplevideomarkdetect
This plugin detects pattern-count squares in the bottom left corner of the video frames. The squares have a width and height of respectively pattern-width and pattern-height. Even squares must be black and odd squares must be white.
When the pattern has been found, pattern-data-count squares after the pattern squares are read as a bitarray. White squares represent a 1 bit and black squares a 0 bit. The bitarray will will included in the element message that is posted (see below).
After the pattern has been found and the data pattern has been read, an
element message called GstSimpleVideoMarkDetect
will
be posted on the bus. If the pattern is no longer found in the frame, the
same element message is posted with the have-pattern field set to FALSE.
The message is only posted if the message property is TRUE.
The message's structure contains these fields:
-
gboolean
have-pattern
: if the pattern was found. This field will be set to TRUE for as long as the pattern was found in the frame and set to FALSE for the first frame that does not contain the pattern anymore. -
GstClockTime
timestamp
: the timestamp of the buffer that triggered the message. -
GstClockTime
stream-time
: the stream time of the buffer. -
GstClockTime
running-time
: the running_time of the buffer. -
GstClockTime
duration
: the duration of the buffer. -
guint64
data
: the data-pattern found after the pattern or 0 when have-signal is FALSE.
