Vladislav Tarakanov 134fb4747a tdf#158510 Added fallback for media files in MediaWindowImpl
When launching media from Properties -> Media Playback,
no sound is currently playing. This is due to the fact that
there is no fallback URL defined for MediaWindowImpl.

To fix this problem, new methods have been added for
setting and getting the fallback URL, passing the path to
the presentation folder from "unoshap4.cxx" to
"mediawindow_imp.cxx".

Because the setURL method starts the media immediately,
calls to "setFallbackURL" method must be made BEFORE
calling "setURL".

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.
