GStreamer播放教程02——字幕管理

目标

      这篇教程和上一篇非常相似，但不是切换音频流，而是字幕了。这次我们会展示：

      如何选择选择字幕流

      如何引入外部的字幕

      如何客制化字幕使用的字体

介绍

      我们都知道一个文件可以有多个音视频流并且可以使用playerbin2的current-audio和current-video属性很方便的进行切换。切换字幕也是一样的方便。

      就和音视频一样，playbin2会选择解码好的字幕，而且GStreamer的插件设计也很容易支持一种新的文件结构。

      但字幕还是有自己的特殊之处，除了可以嵌入文件里面，playbin2还支持使用外界的URI来提供字幕。

      本教程会打开一个包含5个字幕流的文件，并从外界在导入一个字幕（希腊语）。

工作流程

      这篇教程和上篇教程的例子只有很小的差别，让我们就看看这些不同的地方吧。

  /* Set the subtitle URI to play and some font description */
  g_object_set (data.playbin2, "suburi", "http://docs.gstreamer.com/media/sintel_trailer_gr.srt", NULL);
  g_object_set (data.playbin2, "subtitle-font-desc", "Sans, 18", NULL);

      在设置媒体URI之后，我们设置了suburi属性，这就让playbin2获得了字幕流的地址。在这个例子里面，文件里本身包含了多个字幕流了，这用suburi来设置的字幕会加入这个列表一起列出，并且是默认选择的。

      注意，在文件里面包含的字幕流是有元数据的（比如字幕的语言），然而外部的字幕流没有元数据。当运行这个例子时你会看到第一个字幕流没有语言的标签。

      subtitle-font-desc属性允许设置字幕的文本字体。因为使用了Pango库来进行字体的渲染，所以具体可以查询相关文档。

      简单概括一下，字符串字体的描述是根据[FAMILY-LIST][STYLE-OPTIONS][SIZE]来的，其中FAMILY-LIST是用逗号隔开的一系列可选字体，STYLE-OPTIONS是用空格来分开的一系列字体样式，SIZE则是字体大小。比如：

      sans bold 12

      serif, monospace bold italic condensed 16

      normal 10

      常见的字体包括：Normal，Sans，Serif和Monospace。

      常用的样式包括：Normal，Oblique，Italic

      常见的粗细包括：Ultra-Light，Light，Normal，Bold，Ultra-Bold，Heavy

      常见的变化包括：Normal，Small_Caps

      常见的拉伸包括：Ultra-Condensed，Extra-Condensed，Condensed，Semi-Condensed，Normal，Semi-Expanded，Extra-Expanded，Ultra-Expanded

  /* Set flags to show Audio, Video and Subtitles */
  g_object_get (data.playbin2, "flags", &flags, NULL);
  flags |= GST_PLAY_FLAG_VIDEO | GST_PLAY_FLAG_AUDIO | GST_PLAY_FLAG_TEXT;
  g_object_set (data.playbin2, "flags", flags, NULL);

      我们设置flags属性，把音频，视频和字幕的开关都打开。

      剩下的部分和上一篇里面的例子是一样的，除了键盘输入是改变current-text的属性而不是current-audio的属性。这里再强调一下，切换流不会马上起作用，因为缓冲了许多解码好的数据了。
