glide's Introduction

Glide Media Player

Glide is a simple and minimalistic media player relying on GStreamer for the multimedia support and GTK for the user interface. Glide should be able to play any multimedia format supported by GStreamer, locally or remotely hosted. Glide is developed in Rust and was tested on Linux and macOS so far. It should also work on Windows, please let me know if anyone managed to test it on that platform.

I aim to keep this project simple and it probably won't grow to become a very complicated GUI. If you feel adventurous and willing to help, feel free to pick up a task from the TODO list and open a PR. Users are also encouraged to file issues on the Github bug tracker of course.

Installation

Install it with Cargo:

Install RustUp:
```
curl https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh
```

Install GStreamer and GTK. On Debian/Linux:

sudo apt install gstreamer1.0-plugins-{base,good,bad} libgstreamer-plugins-{bad,base}1.0-dev
sudo apt install libgtk-4-dev gstreamer1.0-gl libadwaita-1-dev

On macOS, with brew:

brew install pango gstreamer gtk+4 libadwaita
brew install --build-from-source --with-pango --with-{libogg,libvorbis,opus,theora} gst-plugins-base
brew install --build-from-source --with-libvpx gst-plugins-good
brew install gst-plugins-bad

Install Glide:

cargo install glide
# or if you want to have automatic update checking:
cargo install --features self-updater glide

Packaging status

Flatpak

This is the most recommended way to use Glide as it will allow the maintainers to more easily reproduce reported bugs. There are two different flavours:

The Glide stable version is available on Flathub. After setting up the flathub Flatpak remote as documented in Flathub, install with the following command, or through GNOME Software.

flatpak install net.baseart.Glide

Users interested in the latest development snapshot of Glide can install the Devel version:

flatpak install https://philn.github.io/glide/glide.flatpakref
flatpak run net.baseart.Glide.Devel

Fedora

Available in COPR:

sudo dnf copr enable atim/glide-rs -y
sudo dnf install glide-rs

Using Glide

When used from the installed Flatpak, Glide can be set up as default media player, so double-clicking on a media file in your favorite file browser should bring up Glide.

Glide can also be used from the command line interface. In a terminal:

$ # starting the flatpak version
$ flatpak run net.baseart.Glide /path/to/localfile.mp4 http://some.com/remote/file.mp4
$ # starting the version installed with cargo or traditional distro packages
$ glide /path/to/localfile.mp4 http://some.com/remote/file.mp4

Once running you can use some menus to switch the subtitle and audio tracks, play, pause, seek and switch the window to fullscreen. There are also some keyboard shortcuts for these actions:

show shortcuts window: meta-? or ctrl-?
play/pause: space
seek forward: meta-right or ctrl-right
seek backward: meta-left or ctrl-left
switch to fullscreen: meta-f or ctrl-f
exit from fullscreen: escape
quit the application: meta-q or ctrl-q
load a subtitle file: meta-s or ctrl-s
increase volume: meta-up or ctrl-up
decrease volume: meta-up or ctrl-down
mute the audio track: meta-m or ctrl-m
open a new file: meta-o or ctrl-o

glide's Issues

Looking to add tegra decoding support

The nvidia tegra series uses a proprietary decoder pipeline for video decoding. It can still be used with glimagesink with the correct pipeline (example below).

gst-launch-1.0 souphttpsrc is-live=true location="$(youtube-dl --format "best[ext=mp4][protocol=https]" --get-url https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uo2SNtFofWI)" ! qtdemux name=demux ! queue ! h264parse ! nvv4l2decoder ! nvvidconv ! glimagesink -e demux.audio_0 ! queue ! avdec_aac ! audioconvert ! pulsesink -e

Unfortunately the automatic decoding pipeline in gstreamer does not do this and this has to be manually specified.

Spacebar / keyboard shortcuts break after using sub-dialogs or radiobuttons in the menubutton

Open a video such as the sample mentioned in #118
Notice that spacebar is able to play/pause
Click the menu button, navigate to the subtitles menu, and click a different subtitles track radiobutton

Alternatives to step 3:

open the About dialog, then close it (note that any unimportant dialog should be dismissable with the Esc button, too…)
open the file chooser dialog
open the keyboard shortcuts dialog

Result: keyboard shortcuts don't work anymore, until you click the Play button on the toolbar.

I think I've seen this happen in other situations / other places in the app, but I don't remember which exactly. This is the easiest way to reproduce the issue.

Is this Meson/Ninja behaviour correct?

I cloned the repository and then created a Meson build for it. The build itself seems fine, but the install stage does:

[Feature Request] Playback Speed

Thanks for this lovely and useful player.
Please add playback speed, it's quite essential feature for every player.

Thanks again.

Seperated UI

Hi @philn
As we've discussed brieftly in #16, could you please take a look at this branch where I'm trying to separate UI design from the code.

The work is not ready yet, it's rather a WIP to get your feedback.

Many thanks for any comment.

Pink output in new ngl renderer which is default in latest gtk4

OS: Arch Linux
glide 0.6.1
gtk4 4.13.5

Because of using glshader it does pink output with latest gtk4 in renderers other than opengl. For details see here: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/6372

Flatpak Runtime very old for aach64 target

Would it be possible for you to base it against org.gnome.Platform 3.36 or 3.38?

3.28 is rarely used and then just laying around for one application.

State of Windows support

Hi,

I was able to compile the latest GIT checkout with Rust 1.66.0 with the stable-x86_64-pc-windows-msvc toolchain, along with Visual Studio 2015, however:

I had to drop the following lines, for pretty clear reasons:

 fn main() -> anyhow::Result<()> {
-    #[cfg(not(unix))]
-    {
-        return Err(anyhow::anyhow!("Add support for target platform"));
-    }

The program panicked on startup, with RUST_BACKTRACE=full I had:

%HOMEPATH%\.cargo\bin\glide e:/mp3/BeyondBeauty/4.mp3
thread 'main' panicked at 'called `Result::unwrap()` on an `Err` value: BoolError { message: "Failed to get cast value to a different type Unexpected None", filename: "C:\\Users\\fanc999\\.cargo\\registry\\src\\github.com-1ecc6299db9ec823\\glib-0.15.12\\src\\object.rs", function: "glib::object", line: 2353 }', C:\Users\fanc999\.cargo\registry\src\github.com-1ecc6299db9ec823\glib-0.15.12\src\object.rs:2359:42

Critical warning during startup & global application menu not working

This might be the reason for the global application menu not working

Play a sequence of files

Using Glide master/HEAD built with Rust 1.30.1 on Debian Sid using GStreamer build from master/HEAD everything seems to work for playing FLAC files… except:

It seems not possible to play a sequence of files. The use case is to play an album comprising a sequence of FLAC (or MP3 or Ogg) files. I would like to either select a directory and have all playable files played and/or select a sequence of files using the file chooser.

Currently the file chooser allows the selection of files but Glide then only plays the first in the sequence.

Projector usecase: configurable subtitles size & brightness, and auto-positioning of image and subtitles

I would like to be able to use this video player with a projector, on a big wall, which creates a 10' diagonal display… where subtitles can be overwhelmingly big and bright.

To be useful for this type of usecase,

The app should automagically position the video image and regular (non-ASS) subtitles to avoid overlap:
when a video has subtitles and the viewport/fullscreen is taller than the video for the current aspect ratio (ex: 16:9 projector showing a wide cinema aspect ratio video fullscreen), the image should be positioned at the top and subtitles should be positioned below the image as much as possible, essentially, making the letterbox have only one black band (below) instead of one at the top and one at the bottom.
Subtitles would need to have a dimmable color: I would want to be able to set the subtitles' to 30-50% brightness (i.e. gray instead of pure white) to avoid glare (which would be difficult on the eyes in dark scenes, and introduce light bleed for the projector).
The maximum font size should be configurable: on large screens (such as a whole wall), when sitting close to it, large subtitles are hard to read because they make your eye dart across the whole room, so I would need to be able to limit their size. However, this is very dependent on the screen size and viewing distance, so it's not like we can have a one-size-fits-all hardcoded value here.

Switch to glib channels

Might allow us to get rid of the crossbeam dependency.

[Feature Request] Double click to switch to/from fullscreen mode

Other video players has a feature that switches the player into full screen mode and back by double clicking on a video.
Can you add this feature to your player?

Keyboard input broken

v0.5.6-Flatpak (would be cool if you would provide an “info” screen in the program)

Here are some problems I encountered:

I cannot use the arrow keys to navigate through the video – at pressing those keys, I just hear that “limit reached sound” (which you also encounter in an empty terminal, when you try to scroll down when there is no newer prompt line in the history).
Pressing the space bar pauses the video, while the play button still shows the “pause” icon (i.e. it does not change). Pressing the space bar again does nothing.

Open files by drag and drop

It would be a useful feature to allow opening video files by simply drag and drop them into the playback area.

Add Cargo feature to enable/disable the self-update feature

This would be useful for distros and flatpak, but also because currently the openssl 0.9 bindings don't compile with openssl 1.1.1 :)

Investigate the cascade! macro

Seems like it would simplify some code.

Modernize the Flatpak/Meson stuff

This looks like a good source of inspiration:

Glide 0.6.2 fails to play vp9 encoded video file.

Running the flatpak from flathub on Fedora Silverblue, using an NVIDIA card. The nvcodec based playback works on the host and in a distrobox container. The clapper flatpak, although based on an earlier gstreamer version, plays the file fine, hardware accelerated.

It seems like brew remove the options, is there anything I can do to install this successful?

No subtitles shown on this video sample

Unlike Clapper with GStreamer 1.22.x, it seems Glide (from flathub) with GStreamer 1.24.0 does not show the subtitles from the "anime" sample from this folder. The image plays smoothly, and you can somehow turn on the sound track by switching between the audio tracks (not sure that's expected, I thought all audio tracks had sound), but subtitles will not show no matter what I try to pick in the Glide menus.

I am not sure if this is a Glide-specific issue, or if the fix for https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/issues/3171 broke something; I don't have an easy way to test GStreamer 1.24.x on Fedora 39 other than Glide...

Seeking in uri videos crashes

If you start the program using a web url and try to seek the application will crash returning
`(glide:50183): GStreamer-Video-CRITICAL **: 21:17:28.828: gst_video_center_rect: assertion 'src->h != 0' failed

(glide:50183): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: 21:17:28.880: gst_buffer_get_meta: assertion 'buffer != NULL' failed
Internal player error: Failed to seek to 0:00:00.000000000
bye!`

I have experienced with GTK-rs on my own and have had the same problem without finding a solution, so unfortunately I don't have a clue on how to fix it! Alternatively you could disable seeking on url videos, but that is kind of just working around the problem (this is what https://gitlab.gnome.org/YaLTeR/identity does, or rather, it ignores the error from my quick glance at the code)

Glide failing to launch

Hi,

I'm trying to package glide for NetBSD, I've manged to build and install the package but, it fails to run with the following,

$ glide movie.mp4
thread 'main' panicked at 'called `Result::unwrap()` on an `Err` value: BoolError { message: "Failed to create element from factory name", filename: "/usr/pkgsrc/wip/glide/work/vendor/gstreamer-0.16.3/src/auto/element_factory.rs", function: "gstreamer::auto::element_factory", line: 184 }', src/channel_player.rs:273:71

Any hints on how to fix this?
You can find the package here, https://github.com/NetBSD/pkgsrc-wip/tree/master/glide

Problem with shell scripts on Debian

The build scripts start:

#!/bin/sh

but use Bash features such as [[. This fails on Debian since /bin/sh is Dash and not Bash:

wayland issues (again)

This seems identical to #1, but that issue has been closed and there was little information given.

Upon launching glide from either command line or desktop/menu shortcut, it exits with return code 255 and prints the following to stderr:

Add support for display type 'GdkWaylandDisplay'

This happens immediately after calling the program, before a window is created, with or without arguments (besides -h/--help, -V/--version, or an invalid flag; which all behave normally).

System is running arch GNU/linux-zen, x86_64, up-to-date packages, fresh install of glide, NVIDIA (sadly) RTX2070 with nouveau/mesa drivers, and (of course) Wayland with Sway compositor.

App brand colors metadata is missing

See https://docs.flathub.org/blog/introducing-app-brand-colors/

Hi @jimmac :) Would you have a recommendation for this? I'm not sure what colors I should use for this.

Compile fails - error: could not find system library 'gdk-3.0' required by the 'gdk-sys' crate

Installed gtk-4.0

gtk-3.0 is not apparently available in the repos. I understand that glide can use gtk4, but I do not know how to change the installation flags:

PKG_CONFIG_ALLOW_SYSTEM_CFLAGS="1" "pkg-config" "--libs" "--cflags" "gdk-3.0" "gdk-3.0 >= 3.22"
