Description Emilio Pozuelo Monfort 2011-06-09 01:54:01 UTC 
Right now farstream always spits debug messages. It should have a debug mechanism such as tp-glib's one so that it only prints debug messages when requested (e.g. when TPFS_DEBUG is set)
Comment 1 Olivier Crête 2011-06-09 04:31:44 UTC 
Please push a modern debug framework into GLib! Otherwise I'll use GStreamer's
Comment 2 Jonny Lamb 2011-06-09 14:43:32 UTC 
In fairness, GStreamer's is pretty sweet.
Comment 3 Simon McVittie 2011-06-10 00:09:55 UTC 
Does GStreamer's debug mechanism eventually leave the process via g_debug? If so, Empathy would automatically get TpFs debug in its own debug window and available over D-Bus; if not, some way to hook GStreamer's debug mechanism into TpDebugSender would be nice.
Comment 4 Olivier Crête 2011-06-10 06:25:18 UTC 
No, it doesn't use g_debug... going point to not use it.. this sucks :-(
Comment 5 Olivier Crête 2012-03-26 16:29:26 UTC 
Well, it seems that this is fixed in GLib 2.32.. Debug messages should only show up with G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=tp-fs
