The value of a media_type is a description of a type of data that can be passed betweeen nodes.
It is the broadest encapsulation of any particular type of streaming data.
The following is a list of the defined media_type values, as of BeOS R5 (taken from the BeBook)
- B_MEDIA_NO_TYPE : Typeless media data.
- B_MEDIA_UNKNOWN_TYPE: Unknown media type.
- B_MEDIA_RAW_AUDIO : Uncompressed, linear audio.
- B_MEDIA_RAW_VIDEO : Uncompressed, linear video.
- B_MEDIA_VBL : Raw data from VBL area.
- B_MEDIA_TIMECODE : Timecode data. Undetermined format.
- B_MEDIA_MIDI : MIDI data.
- B_MEDIA_TEXT : Text data; typically closed-captioning information.
- B_MEDIA_HTML : HTML data.
- B_MEDIA_MULTISTREAM : Multi-stream media data, such as AVI or QuickTime.
- B_MEDIA_PARAMETERS : BControllable change data.
- B_MEDIA_ENCODED_AUDIO : Encoded audio (such as AC3 or DTS).
- B_MEDIA_ENCODED_VIDEO : Encoded video (such as Indeo or MPEG).
- B_MEDIA_PRIVATE : Base value for private Be media types.
- B_MEDIA_FIRST_USER_TYPE : Base value for user-defined media types.
In addition to these, the following additional types are suggested for possible
inclusion in future MediaKit implementations :
- MEDIA_XML : XML data.
- MEDIA_VECTOR : Vector based image/animation formats
- MEDIA_3D : Includes OpenGL and other data related to spatial representation
- MEDIA_FFT : Streaming FFT data, (currently implemented as Private media_type in FMediaNodes.
