[Linphone-developers] videostreamer2 on windows

[Vadim Lebedev]

Hello,

We're still struggling to integrate videostreamer2 into QuteCom and 
we're stumbled on major
problem in windows.

If ms_init is called from the thread different from one that calls 
ms_webcam_create_reader
the ...create_reader call block indefintey in the capCaptureGetSetup.

The problem is that capCaptureGetSetup is a macro using SendMessage api, 
which in this  case sends a message to  a window which belongs  to a  
thread without  Windows  message  loop.
So  the SendMessage never returns....


Simon what do you think about possible fixes:
1)  mediastreamer can create a special thread which will create the 
capture window and will execute a message loop
2) reorganzie the code  to redo capCaptureWindow is called again when 
video stream is started


Thanks
Vadim
