Dear All,

Since it is possible to use dtsdownmix with dreambox dvbmediasink i created the project gst-plugin-dtsdownmix (https://github.com/a...ugin-dtsdownmix) based on OpenPLi dvbmediasink (http://sourceforge.n...ci/master/tree/).

It uses only the gstdtsdownmix.c and gstdtsdownmix.h and creates the required gstreamer plugin. The only change made on gstdtsdownmix is to increase the GST_RANK_PRIMARY because dreambox dvbmediasink uses static caps. More info http://openpli.org/f...e-9#entry358307

The following patch adds dtsdownmix on Openpli Oe Core.

 

Attached File  0001-DTS-downmix-of-audio-streams-for-dreambox.patch.txt   1.65KB   62 downloads


Also we need to enable gst-plugin-dtsdownmix and libdca on feeds, but i have never done this before.

BTW, the reason our dvbaudiosink does not use static caps, is because it should be possible to switch the downmix on/off.

By increasing the dtsdownmix element rank, as soon as people install the plugin, they won't be able to use dts passthrough anymore.

if you did change PLi's sources so you did wrong because we can't take a look at the changes

 

first fork or merge on a new repo then apply your changes so we can see the changes

@pieterg, should we create a patch against dreambox dvbmediasink with dynamic caps in order to be able to switch downmix on/off in order to solve the problem? 

 

@persianpros, do you know how to add dtsdownmix and libdca on feeds too?

yes you can add "libdca0" and "gst-plugin-dtsdownmix" in "OPTIONAL_PACKAGES" : https://sourceforge....penpli-image.bb

 

like :

OPTIONAL_PACKAGES += " \
	libdca0 \
	gst-plugin-dtsdownmix \
	"

Yes, I think that would be best.
Or users should accept that once they installed this plugin, they cannot use DTS passthroug anymore.

@persianpros, do you know how to add dtsdownmix and libdca on feeds too?

You do not need to add them, because they are dependencies of the plugin. Bitbake should take care of installing them.

Please accept  the .bb (Persian Prince or mine) and i will try to create patch for dreambox dvbmediasink on my spare time.

 

 

I know for sure that (free) dtsdownmix is a must have! Users with amplifier they never have to install this...

 

 

PS. I really appreciate your job, thanks.

Dear pieterg,

 

If we change the plugin_init of dtsdownmix to return GST_RANK_PRIMARY when downmix is off and GST_RANK_PRIMARY + 2 when downmix is on would work? (the idea is to have passthrough without patching the dreambox dvbmediasink caps)

The ranks are stored in the cache, so runtime changes won't work I'm afraid.

Dear All,

 

 

A new patch was created.

 

Attached File  0001-Add-DTS-support-on-dreambox-dvbmediasink.patch.txt   5.08KB   34 downloads

 

Dreambox dvbmediasink now is patched to support dtsdownmix. Also dtsdownmix now uses GST_RANK_PRIMARY instead of GST_RANK_PRIMARY + 2.

 

Finally gst-plugin-dtsdownmix was added as depend on dreambox dvbmediasink.

Yes on my tests it works. When the setting is downmix i can hear the sound. When the setting is passthrough i cannot hear the sound (i don't have amplifier).

 

It's the same behaviour like on openpli dvbmediasink, on opepli dvbmediasink you are not adding dts caps when downmix is enabled. On my patch i remove the already added caps when downmix is enabled.

I think vu+ is using the dream dvbmediasink, so if we apply this, we would probably render (hardware) DTS downmixing unused on vu+ stb's?

vu+ (include/vuxxo.inc and include/vuxxo2.inc) are using gst-plugin-dvbmediasink.

 

MACHINE_EXTRA_RRECOMMENDS = " \
        vuplus-shutdown \
        gst-plugin-dvbmediasink \
        ntfs-3g \
        "

 

So there is no conflict on vu+ boxes. gst-plugin-dreambox-dvbmediasink is used only by dreamboxes.
