/**
* SECTION:gstbasevideodecoder
* @short_description: Base class for video decoders
* @see_also: #GstBaseTransform
*
* This base class is for video decoders turning encoded data into raw video
* frames.
*
* GstBaseVideoDecoder and subclass should cooperate as follows.
* <orderedlist>
* <listitem>
* <itemizedlist><title>Configuration</title>
* <listitem><para>
* Initially, GstBaseVideoDecoder calls @start when the decoder element
* is activated, which allows subclass to perform any global setup.
* </para></listitem>
* <listitem><para>
* GstBaseVideoDecoder calls @set_format to inform subclass of caps
* describing input video data that it is about to receive, including
* possibly configuration data.
* While unlikely, it might be called more than once, if changing input
* parameters require reconfiguration.
* </para></listitem>
* <listitem><para>
* GstBaseVideoDecoder calls @stop at end of all processing.
* </para></listitem>
* </itemizedlist>
* </listitem>
* <listitem>
* <itemizedlist>
* <title>Data processing</title>
* <listitem><para>
* Base class gathers input data, and optionally allows subclass
* to parse this into subsequently manageable chunks, typically
* corresponding to and referred to as 'frames'.
* </para></listitem>
* <listitem><para>
* Input frame is provided to subclass' @handle_frame.
* </para></listitem>
* <listitem><para>
* If codec processing results in decoded data, subclass should call
* @gst_base_video_decoder_finish_frame to have decoded data pushed
* downstream.
* </para></listitem>
* </itemizedlist>
* </listitem>
* <listitem>
* <itemizedlist><title>Shutdown phase</title>
* <listitem><para>
* GstBaseVideoDecoder class calls @stop to inform the subclass that data
* parsing will be stopped.
* </para></listitem>
* </itemizedlist>
* </listitem>
* </orderedlist>
*
* Subclass is responsible for providing pad template caps for
* source and sink pads. The pads need to be named "sink" and "src". It also
* needs to set the fixed caps on srcpad, when the format is ensured. This
* is typically when base class calls subclass' @set_format function, though
* it might be delayed until calling @gst_base_video_decoder_finish_frame.
*
* Subclass is also responsible for providing (presentation) timestamps
* (likely based on corresponding input ones). If that is not applicable
* or possible, baseclass provides limited framerate based interpolation.
*
* Similarly, the baseclass provides some limited (legacy) seeking support
* (upon explicit subclass request), as full-fledged support
* should rather be left to upstream demuxer, parser or alike. This simple
* approach caters for seeking and duration reporting using estimated input
* bitrates.
*
* Things that subclass need to take care of:
* <itemizedlist>
* <listitem><para>Provide pad templates</para></listitem>
* <listitem><para>
* Set source pad caps when appropriate
* </para></listitem>
* <listitem><para>
* Configure some baseclass behaviour parameters.
* </para></listitem>
* <listitem><para>
* Optionally parse input data, if it is not considered packetized.
* Parse sync is obtained either by providing baseclass with a
* mask and pattern or a custom @scan_for_sync. When sync is established,
* @parse_data should invoke @gst_base_video_decoder_add_to_frame and
* @gst_base_video_decoder_have_frame as appropriate.
* </para></listitem>
* <listitem><para>
* Accept data in @handle_frame and provide decoded results to
* @gst_base_video_decoder_finish_frame.
* </para></listitem>
* </itemizedlist>
