I've been trying to combine 2 videos together with gstreamer with a short transition (like smpte) between them using gstreamer & gnonlin in python. However I can't get the gnloperation/smpte transition to work.

Goal

Below is a programme. I want it to play the first 4 sec of one file, and at 2 sec to start doing a smpte transition (that lasts for 2 seconds) to another file. (so the second file will start playing 2 seconds into the whole thing but be 'revealed' over the course of the 2 second transition), and after the transition is finished, the 2 sec of the 2nd file on it's own should be shown.

This is based on another gstreamer/gnonlin script in python. I have asked this question on the gstreamer-devel list (and again), and am trying here.

Problem

The transition doesn't finish. The transition runs for about 0.5 seconds, then video 1 plays for ~ 1.5 sec and then video 2 cuts in. I've tried changing the end position of the controller (e.g. to controller.set("position", 0.5 * gst.SECOND, 0.0)), and the transition completes in the 0.5 sec, but as soon as the transition finish, video 1 starts playing again for a little bit, then video 2 starts playing.

Thinking that maybe the video transition is limited to 0.5 sec, I changed the gnloperation to 0.5 sec, however the same non-finishing problem persists, except that the transition only plays for about 0.3 sec, and part of the way through video 1 kicks in for a little bit, and then video 2 plays.

    elif message.type == gst.MESSAGE_ERROR:
        print message
        loop.quit()
bus.connect("message", on_message, loop)
pipeline.set_state(gst.STATE_PLAYING)
loop.run()
pipeline.set_state(gst.STATE_NULL)

It looks like the problem is in the properties of your second source file.

in stead of:

gsrc2.props.start          = 2 * gst.SECOND
gsrc2.props.duration       = 6 * gst.SECOND
gsrc2.props.media_start    = 0
gsrc2.props.media_duration = 2 * gst.SECOND
gsrc2.props.priority       = 2

try:

gsrc2.props.start          = 2 * gst.SECOND
gsrc2.props.duration       = 4 * gst.SECOND
gsrc2.props.media_start    = 0
gsrc2.props.media_duration = 4 * gst.SECOND
gsrc2.props.priority       = 2

This seems to work as expected for me.
