Description Philippe Normand 2009-09-24 09:32:08 PDT
The test LayoutTests/media/video-size-intrinsic-scale.html is currently failing. I think it is because  the webkit video sink doesn't handle properly the picture aspect ratio data reported by the upstream gstreamer elements. In fact in VideoSinkGstreamer.cpp, the par_n and par_d don't seem to be used.
Comment 1 Philippe Normand 2009-09-25 09:13:42 PDT
Turns out to be bugs in qtdemux too:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=596326
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=596319

And I started working on a patch for our video sink that would properly handle the pixel-aspect-ratio data reported by GStreamer.

So, I fail to see why we would return here, because failing to retrieve something we do not even use failed. Does this failing mean we will, say, fail to play the video? Returning here will only cause the pixel aspect ratio to not be set, in case we would be able to fetch it, but not this, so maybe just set a sane default, like you are doing for pixel aspect ratio.

I think this is a good oportunity to start fixing the style in this code, regarding variable names. I would recommend turning par_n and par_d into pixelAspectRatioNumerator, and pixelAspectRatioDenominator, and par to pixelAspectRatio. We should go this way at least for MediaPlayerPrivate. VideoSink is less problematic, because I believe we will be moving it out of WebKit sometime, but try to follow it there for now.

Comments should be full sentences, with capitalization, and punctuation =).

So this size is after the scaling has been applied in here, right?:

I only kept the previous behavior of the code in this patch...
What would be a "sane default" fps? :)

As discussed on IRC with slomo :)

09:13:59 <     slomo> philn-tp: if there's no framerate something is really broken and you shouldn't play the video
09:14:14 <  philn-tp> slomo: ok so the code is fine as it is?
09:14:18 <     slomo> philn-tp: even still images have a framerate (0/1)
09:14:21 < slomo> yes

Very good, thanks! I recommend using g_return_val_if_fail there, then, since this is really one of those "shouldn't happen" situations.

Sorry, early closure is tracked by bug 28230.  (Assuming there was some way for the commit-queue to know not to close this?)

Hey, this was caused by the patch not being marked for review, so I don't think it was a problem in the script behavior.
