Previously, all of the README files have been renamed to README.md and now, the contents of these files were changed to use Markdown format. Other than format inconsistency, some README.md files lacked information about modules, or were out of date. By using LibreOffice / OpenOffice wiki and other documentation websites, these files were updated. Now every README.md file has a title, and some description. The top-level README.md file is changed to add links to the modules. The result of processing the Markdown format README.md files can be seen at: https://docs.libreoffice.org/ Change-Id: Ic3b0c3c064a2498d6a435253b041df010cd7797a Reviewed-on: https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/113424 Tested-by: Jenkins Reviewed-by: Michael Stahl <michael.stahl@allotropia.de> Reviewed-by: Adolfo Jayme Barrientos <fitojb@ubuntu.com>

# Audio / video Media Implementation.
|
|
|
|
Provides per-platform implementations of multimedia functionality.
|
|
Currently no stream API is provided, only a URI based one, so
|
|
streaming has to be wrapped around it via temp files.
|
|
|
|
Also provides (in `source/framework/mediacontrol.cxx`) an implementation
|
|
of the graphical media playback control that appears in the toolbar /
|
|
mediaobject bar when media is selected under the `.uno:AVMediaToolBox`
|
|
item.
|
|
|
|
## avmedia / gstreamer
|
|
|
|
The `avmedia` component is implementation of manager service defined in
|
|
`offapi/com/sun/star/media/`. Radek has added implementation based on
|
|
gstreamer so that we can add audio and video files into impress
|
|
presentation on Linux with gstreamer.
|
|
|
|
The implementation is pretty straightforward, sometimes it has
|
|
problems when gstreamer installation is incomplete.
|
|
|
|
In the beginning the media files were not embedded, Thorsten added
|
|
support for that later.
|
|
|
|
## Future Works
|
|
|
|
it might be worthwhile to revamp the avmedia UI.
