Collabora partnered with STMicroelectronics recently to present a typical vision pipeline running on the #STM32MP2. At Embedded World in Nuremberg, Collabora demonstrated an upgraded version on this work, replacing RTSP and ONVIF with AVB for streaming.

We hope to see you there!
Posted on the forum about the little #gstreamer plugin I've been working on that zooms into the area of the video that has faces in it (like a certain feature on the fruit company devices). (Oh no, I guess I have "AI experience" now since I've used an ML model for face detection lol) The current code is kinda hacky and I'm looking to upstream pieces to gst-plugins-rs to slim down the amount of custom code required and make the ecosystem better in the process :3
There will be a GStreamer Spring Hackfest on 16-18 May 2025 in Nice, France - hope to see you there! More details soon.

I frequently need to analyze GStreamer logs. I find it difficult to analyze sometimes, I have created a small utility that I wish existed. It is available here: https://gstreamerlogs.caricio.com/
and its opensource, of course.

#GStreamer 1.26 Open-Source Multimedia Framework Officially Released, Here’s What’s New https://9to5linux.com/gstreamer-1-26-open-source-multimedia-framework-released-heres-whats-new
Alright, #GStreamer hivemind, do you know of a good way to seek an audio file with sound preview (scrubbing), but without the pipeline state being "playing"? I'm asking for https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/decibels/-/issues/123
A first experiment in #gstreamer is quite promising - on the x220 it already makes Showtime (the future Gnome default player) outperform #mpv with 4k@30fps AV1 or VP9 playback - my hope is to get 4k@60fps work smoothly (SDR - bonus for HDR10, but the required shaders might end up being too heavy).
For those interested, you can find the code at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/8540
Does the number "1266874889" mean something in #GStreamer, #FFMPEG, or computing in general? An overflow I presume? 
Nebenbei hab ich noch das ganze Streaming-Setup auf einen Mac Mini übertragen um einen Ersatz zu haben.
Leider ist ein selbst-modifiziertes #gstreamer plugin in #OBS ein zentraler Bestandteil meines Setup, daher musste ich dasselbe erst noch auf dem Apple Rechner kompilieren und zum laufen kriegen.. Immer diese Speziallösungen.. 
Und jetzt, mit einem guten Grund für den Fehler *und* einem Backup, da lebt es sich doch gleich entspannter.. *klopft auf Holz* 
Playing some tunes on https://soundcloud.com/aiobahn/popular-tracks I just realized that #SoundCloud does an automatic 100ms fade-in and fade-out when you hit the play/pause button. That feels so nice, especially for music!
I'm wondering if #GStreamer can do that easily, and if we could/should do that in the #GNOME multimedia apps like Amberol and Podcasts (maybe also Decibels and Showtime, though I'm not sure if that would be expected in those cases)
