XCreateWindow request fails for imxeglvivsink plugin

Hardware and Software details:
Board: wb quad Rev C1
Image: wandboard-all-ubuntu-16.04-sdcard-20160520.img downloaded from wandboard site:(http://download.wandboard.org/wandboard-imx6/ubuntu-16.04/)

Drivers and gstreamer(1.8.0) plugins are already installed with the image.

I debug imxeglvivsink plugin using source code gstreamer-imx from github and found that XCreateWindow request fails to create window.

Let me explain what i am trying to do.

1. I create a GTK+ window using gtk_window_new (GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL);

2. Then add drawing area using gtk api gtk_drawing_area_new

3.Once video area is "realized", get window handle using GDK_WINDOW_XID (window) and store in variable video_window_handle( i will use it later).

4. Inside gstreamer bus sync handler i use video_window_handle to set it as overlay using gstreamer api gst_video_overlay_set_window_handle().

5. In imxeglvivsink, XCreateWindow api uses video_window_handle as parent window. AND here everything goes wrong.

I debugged further using xtrace utility, CreateWindow request fails with BADMATCH. I check the visuals for video_window_handle(window created using GTK+GDK) its value is 0xC7 and default X value it is 0x21.

I don't understand where to configure GDK to use system defalut X visual so that parameter match for parent and child window and XCreateWindow gets successful.

I have searched it all the place but not found any such setting. Please help.

For ubuntu-14.04 i did not do any such setting, there by default visual match for both GTK window and XCreateWindow.

Let me know in case any further information is required.

Hi Naseeb,

You need to compile gstreamer vs imxeglvivsink. In you 14.04 is should be compiled

Hi Bio_TICFSL,

Thanks for your reply.

I am sorry. i don't get your answer. Do you want me to compile gstreamer-imx on my 14.04 machine?

Also,

In file: egl_platform_x11.c and function: gst_imx_egl_viv_sink_egl_platform_init_window, i modified

XCreateWindow parameters visual_info->depth to CopyFromParent and visual_info->visual to CopyFromParent and compile gstramer-imx on 16.04 itself. By these changes imxeglvivsink is able to render on the child window.

But i don't want to change the gstreamer-imx code. I want, if GDK settings are configured such a way that x-window gets created with visual_info->depth and visual_info->visual itself.

I hope i am able to clarify what i want.

I strongly feel there must be some configuration file to change GDK default visual. Time being I have changed GDK Visual using the code

static int change_visual(GtkWidget *widget) {   int nitems_return;   Display *x_display = XOpenDisplay(NULL);   Visual *x_visual = XDefaultVisual(x_display, DefaultScreen(x_display));    GdkScreen *gdk_screen = gdk_screen_get_default();   GList *gdk_visual_list = gdk_screen_list_visuals(gdk_screen);   GList *l;   for (l = gdk_visual_list; l != NULL; l = l->next)   {     Visual *temp = gdk_x11_visual_get_xvisual((GdkVisual *)l->data);     if(temp->visualid == x_visual->visualid) break;   }   //l is pointing the visual which is similar to system x visual. Lets change it.   gtk_widget_set_visual (widget, (GdkVisual *)l->data);   return 0; }
