Don't wait until later, we want to know here if the codec can be opened or not
for the requested format. This was removed (accidentially?) by
119e09eac3
Without this decodebin has no way to switch to a different decoder if this one
does not work.

Leave kCVOpenGLESTextureCacheMaximumTextureAgeKey to the default (1s). We used
to set it to 0 and flush manually, but apparently (looking at the GLES profiler)
0 means "disable the cache entirely".
Rework the GL context code. Now both avfvideosrc and vtdec can create an
internal GL context for pushing textures. Both elements will still try to
use/switch to a local context where available (including after RECONFIGURE
events).
Actually set the configured framerate. Before we only used to set the first
matching framerate range. On iOS where the camera reports ranges [2, 60], we
used to configure the camera to output anything between 2 and 60fps.
Implement a new memory type wrapping CVPixelBuffer.
There are two immediate advantages:
a) Make the GstMemory itself retain the CVPixelBuffer. Previously,
the containing GstBuffer was solely responsible for the lifetime of
the backing CVPixelBuffer.
With this change, we remove the GST_MEMORY_FLAG_NO_SHARE so that
GstMemory objects be referenced by multiple GstBuffers (doing away
with the need to copy.)
b) Delay locking CVPixelBuffer into CPU memory until it's actually
mapped -- possibly never.
The CVPixelBuffer object is shared among references, shares and
(in planar formats) planes, so a wrapper GstAppleCoreVideoPixelBuffer
structure was introduced to manage locking.

When doing GLMemory avfvideosrc negotiates UYVY. This change allows avfvideosrc
! tee name=t ! ... ! glimagesink t. ! ... ! gldownload ! vtenc_h264 ! ...
to do GLMemory and 0-copy with the encoder (with the CV meta).
Change texture format from BGRA to NV12. This allows a pipeline like avfvideosrc
! tee name=t ! ... ! glimagesink t. ! ... ! gldownload ! vtenc_h264 ! ... to
negotiate GLMemory. This makes the glimagesink branch much faster (obviously)
and triggers the 0-copy path between avfvideosrc and vtenc (using the CV meta).
Combined this results in a huge perf improvement on iOS (25-30% of CPU time in a
pipeline like the one above).
Note that this doesn't introduce a new shader conversion in the sink, since BGRA
textures had to be copied/converted from format=BGRA,texture-target=RECTANGLE to
format=RGBA,texture-target=2D anyway.
Fixate to the highest possible resolution and fps. Otherwise by default we end
up fixating at 2fps and the lowest supported resolution, which is hardly what
someone who bought an overpriced smartphone wants.
Otherwise qtkitvideosrc fails to build on OSX 10.10.4
because QTKit has been deprecated since OS X 10.9.
Also set -mmacosx-version-min=10.8 in front to allow
the user or cerbero to override the version.

Add gst_gl_memory_allocator_get_default to get the default allocator based on
the opengl version. Allows us to stop hardcoding the PBO allocator which isn't
supported on gles2.
Fixes GL upload on iOS9 among other things.
Prefer GLMemory over sysmem. Also now when pushing GLMemory we push the
original formats (UYVY in OSX, BGRA in iOS) and leave it to downstream to
convert.
It was added back in the day to make texture sharing work by default with
glimagesink inside playbin. These days glimagesink accepts (and converts) YUV
internally so it's no longer needed.
Switch to using IOSurface instead of CVOpenGLTextureCache on OSX. The latter can't be
used anymore to do YUV => RGB with opengl3 on El Capitan as GL_YCBCR_422_APPLE
has been removed from the opengl3 driver. Also switch to NV12 from UYVY, which
was the only YUV format supported by CVOpenGLTextureCache.
First of a few commits to stop using CVOpenGLTextureCache on OSX and use
IOSurfaces directly instead. CVOpenGLTextureCache hasn't been updated for OpenGL
3 which is why texture sharing is currently disabled on OSX.
rename gst-launch --> gst-launch-1.0
replace old elements with new elements(ffmpegcolorspace -> videoconvert, ffenc_** -> avenc_**)
fix caps in examples
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=759432
Year 12: I still don't understand how negotiation works.
Apparently gst_pad_query_caps doesn't do what I thought it did. To get the
actual caps that can flow through vtdec:src we must call gst_pad_peer_query_caps
with the template caps as filter.
Fixes negotiation with stuff that doesn't understand GLMemory (hello videoscale).
Rework negotiation implementing GstVideoDecoder::negotiate. Make it possible to
switch texture sharing on and off at runtime. Useful to (eventually) turn
texture sharing on in pipelines where glimagesink is linked only after
decoding has already started (for example OWR).
Improve decode error handling by avoiding calling into GstVideoDecoder from the
VT decode callback. This removes contention on the GST_VIDEO_DECODER_STREAM_LOCK
which used to make the decode callback slow enough for VT to start dropping lots
of frames once the first frame was dropped.
