x[v]imagesink should call gst_pad_set_bufferalloc_function() on
their sink pads with a bufferalloc implementation. This bufferalloc
function is to allocate buffers that _peers_ will send _to_ that pad.
A trivial version of a bufferalloc function, i.e., one that just
allocates normal buffers:
static GstBuffer *
gst_ximagesink_sink_bufferalloc (GstPad *pad, guint64 offset, guint
size)
{
GstBuffer *buffer;
buffer = gst_buffer_new_and_alloc (size);
GST_DATA_FREE_FUNC (data) = gst_ximagesink_buffer_free;
GST_BUFFER_POOL_PRIVATE (data) = ximagesink; /* whatever */
return buffer;
}
static void
gst_ximagesink_buffer_free (GstData *data)
{
g_free (GST_BUFFER_DATA (data));
}
The hard part is going through each element, and every time it
allocates a buffer using gst_buffer_new_and_alloc () that is then
sent to a sink pad, the call should be replaced with
gst_pad_alloc_buffer (sinkpad, offset, size).
