Adding a buffer to the end of a GstBufferList is supposed to be a fast
operation, but it was not since the iterator does not advance its
nextpointer when adding buffers and GList does not have a tail pointer.
Using a GQueue to store the buffers makes it easier to add buffers to
the end of the list and this operation will now be much more efficient.
Adding an entire GList of buffers using
gst_buffer_list_iterator_add_list() will however have to iterate over
the list being added to be able to update the tail pointer in the
GQueue.
Replace subbuffer and copy vmethods by a more generic transform function that
can then be parametrised by transform specific data. This should allow us to
implement make-writable and more future transform functions.
Make separate api for getting and adding metadata. This allows us to pass extra
parameters to the init functions when creating metadata, which is needed for
specific API implementations.
Add beginnings of memory metadata.
Add first implementation of arbitrary buffer metadata. We use a simple linked
linked of slice allocated metadata chunks. Future implementations could use
something more performant.
Add get, remove, iterate methods to handle the metadata.
Passing e.g. location=foo would lead to warnings because g_filename_to_uri()
wants an absolute file path and returns NULL otherwise. Use brand-new
gst_filename_to_uri() instead, which will try harder to create a proper
URI for us.
Also add unit test.
Avoid doing unnecessary pad-allocs when on passthrough mode.
If multiple basetransform elements are on a pipeline, they
would do a pad-alloc for each received buffer, each element
would do this, so we would have lots of pad allocs on the
pipeline for a single buffer being pushed through it.
This patch attempts to reduce this amount by avoiding
doing pad-allocs if the element has already done it
after the last pushed buffer. So it will only be allowed
to do a new pad-alloc after it has pushed a buffer, so we get
1x1 pad-alloc and buffer ratio

Makes gst_bus_add_watch(), gst_bus_add_watch_full(), gst_bus_add_signal_watch(),
and gst_bus_add_signal_watch_full() convenience functions automatically pick up
any non-default main contexts set for the current thread via
g_main_thread_push_thread_default().
Remove code that isn't needed any longer, which sets the multiqueue
to PLAYING and back before unreffing, in order to avoid a deadlock
waiting for gstpad tasks that were never started. The problem seems
to have been fixed long ago.
The unit tests are riddled with g_assert() and friends, make sure we
don't disable assert and cast checks for the unit tests even if
this has been specified for the rest of the code base, e.g. via
--disable-glib-asserts.
Adds getcaps/setcaps to output-selector and adds a property
to select which type of negotiation should be done.
The available modes are:
* none: no negotiation (current behavior), getcaps return ANY and
setcaps aren't set on any of the peers
* all: use all pads (default), getcaps returns the intersection of
peer pads and setcaps is set on all peers
* active: getcaps and setcaps are proxied to the active pad
