Tizen Native API  5.0
Player

The Player API provides functions for media playback and controlling media playback attributes.

Required Header

#include <player.h>

Overview

The Player API provides a way to play multimedia content. Content can be played from a file, from the network, or from memory. It gives the ability to start/stop/pause/mute, set the playback position (that is, seek), perform various status queries, and control the display.

Additional functions allow registering notifications via callback functions for various state change events.

This API also enables collaboration with the GUI service to present a video.

State Diagram

Playback of multimedia content is controlled by a state machine. The following diagram shows the life cycle and states of the Player.

Since :
2.3
Remarks:
This function must be called before calling player_prepare() or player_prepare_async().
A registered callback is called in a separate thread (not in the main loop).
A video frame can be retrieved using a registered callback as a media packet.

So if you change the media packet in a registered callback, it will be displayed on the device
and the media packet is available until it's destroyed by media_packet_destroy().
The packet have to be destroyed as quickly as possible after rendering the packet
and all the packets have to be destroyed before player_unprepare() is called.

int player_set_memory_buffer ( player_h  player,
const void *  data,
int  size 
)

Sets memory as the data source.

Associates media content, cached in memory, with the player. Unlike the case of player_set_uri(), the media resides in memory. If the function call is successful, subsequent calls to player_prepare() and player_start() will start playing the media.

Since :
2.3
Remarks:
If you provide an invalid data, you won't receive an error message until you call player_start().
This function must be called before calling the player_prepare() or player_prepare_async() to build the player based on the data.
Parameters:
[in]playerThe handle to the media player
[in]dataThe memory pointer of media data
[in]sizeThe size of media data
Returns:
0 on success, otherwise a negative error value
Return values:
PLAYER_ERROR_NONESuccessful
PLAYER_ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETERInvalid parameter
PLAYER_ERROR_INVALID_OPERATIONInvalid operation
PLAYER_ERROR_INVALID_STATEInvalid player state
Precondition:

int player_set_play_position ( player_h  player,
int  milliseconds,
bool  accurate,
player_seek_completed_cb  callback,
void *  user_data 
)

Sets the seek position for playback, asynchronously.

Since :
2.3
Remarks:
This function will trigger the seeking operation on player instance like in the case of player_set_play_position_nsec(). Normally application needs to wait for player_seek_completed_cb() before calling setting position function again. Otherwise it will return PLAYER_ERROR_SEEK_FAILED.
Calling player_pause() or player_start() before player_seek_completed_cb() is invoked will cause PLAYER_ERROR_INVALID_OPERATION to be returned.
Please note that if application is playing external media data via player_set_media_stream_info(), then consecutive calling of this function will always succeed and there is no need to wait for player_seek_completed_cb() before next calling of this function.(since_tizen 3.0)
Even if you don't set visible to true by calling player_set_display_visible(), the video will be shown when the player_seek_completed_cb() is invoked.
In case of non-seekable content, the function will return PLAYER_ERROR_INVALID_OPERATION and the player will keep playing without changing the play position.
Parameters:
[in]playerThe handle to the media player
[in]millisecondsThe position in milliseconds from the start to the seek point
[in]accurateIf true the selected position is returned, but this might be considerably slow, if false the nearest key frame position is returned, this might be faster but less accurate.
[in]callbackThe callback function to register
[in]user_dataThe user data to be passed to the callback function
Returns:
0 on success, otherwise a negative error value
Return values:
PLAYER_ERROR_NONESuccessful
PLAYER_ERROR_INVALID_STATEInvalid player state
PLAYER_ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETERInvalid parameter
PLAYER_ERROR_INVALID_OPERATIONInvalid operation
PLAYER_ERROR_SEEK_FAILEDSeek operation failure
Precondition:
The player state must be one of PLAYER_STATE_READY, PLAYER_STATE_PLAYING, or PLAYER_STATE_PAUSED.
Postcondition:
It invokes player_seek_completed_cb() when seek operation completes, if you set a callback.

int player_set_play_position_nsec ( player_h  player,
int64_t  nanoseconds,
bool  accurate,
player_seek_completed_cb  callback,
void *  user_data 
)

Sets the seek position in nanoseconds for playback, asynchronously.

Since :
5.0
Remarks:
This function will trigger the seeking operation on player instance like in the case of player_set_play_position(). Normally application needs to wait for player_seek_completed_cb() before calling setting position function again. Otherwise it will return PLAYER_ERROR_SEEK_FAILED.
Calling player_pause() or player_start() before player_seek_completed_cb() is invoked will cause PLAYER_ERROR_INVALID_OPERATION to be returned.
Please note that if application is playing external media data via player_set_media_stream_info(), then consecutive calling of this function will always succeed and there is no need to wait for player_seek_completed_cb() before next calling of this function.
Even if you don't set visible to true by calling player_set_display_visible(), the video will be shown when the player_seek_completed_cb() is invoked.
In case of non-seekable content, the function will return PLAYER_ERROR_INVALID_OPERATION and the player will keep playing without changing the play position.
Parameters:
[in]playerThe handle to the media player
[in]nanosecondsThe position in nanoseconds from the start to the seek point
[in]accurateIf true the selected position is returned, but this might be considerably slow, if false the nearest key frame position is returned, this might be faster but less accurate.
[in]callbackThe callback function to register
[in]user_dataThe user data to be passed to the callback function
Returns:
0 on success, otherwise a negative error value
Return values:
PLAYER_ERROR_NONESuccessful
PLAYER_ERROR_INVALID_STATEInvalid player state
PLAYER_ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETERInvalid parameter
PLAYER_ERROR_INVALID_OPERATIONInvalid operation
PLAYER_ERROR_SEEK_FAILEDSeek operation failure
Precondition:
The player state must be one of PLAYER_STATE_READY, PLAYER_STATE_PLAYING, or PLAYER_STATE_PAUSED.
Postcondition:
It invokes player_seek_completed_cb() when seek operation completes, if you set a callback.
