kalyzee / gst-webkit Goto Github PK

First off, I must say it is a very nice plugin and looks very promising. I've been looking for something like this for a while.

1. Is it required to run a webserver?
2. Is there an example overlay html file to display? I have tried getting

gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc ! video/x-raw, format=RGBA, width=1280, height=720 ! mixer.sink_0   webkitsrc  url="localhost:1337" ! video/x-raw, format=RGBA, width=1280, height=720 ! alpha method=green ! mixer.sink_1   videomixer name=mixer sink_0::zorder=0 sink_1::zorder=1 !  videoconvert ! autovideosink sync=FALSE

to work from the documentation. I am running a sailsjs server to test it. However, I am not able to see anything but the videotestsrc in the playback window. I am not sure if it is my html file or what I am doing wrong to display the html in the stream. I recon that this is on TODO, so I am not sure what to expect from it.

I have also tried running

gst-launch-1.0 webkitsrc url=http://localhost:1337 ! video/x-raw, format=RGBA, framerate=25/1, width=1280, height=720 ! videoconvert ! xvimagesink sync=FALSE

This is displaying a black window.

Am I doing something wrong or is it not fully developed yet?

In Ubuntu 18, libwebkit-dev has been succeeded by libwebkitgtk-dev (apt-get install libwebkit-dev shows failed, says it has been replaced by libwebkitgtk-dev libjavascriptcoregtk-1.0-dev)

After installing libwebkitgtk-dev and running, ./autogen.sh, I get the following message:

.

checking for ORC... yes
checking for CAIRO... yes
checking for WEBKIT... no
configure: error: 
      You need to install or upgrade WEBKIT
      apt-get install libwebkit-dev
  
configure failed

How to get the build to work?
