As a last resort, if video processing capabilities (VPP) are not available,
or they did not produce anything conclusive enough, then try to fallback to
the original rendering code path whereby the whole VA surface is rendered
as is, no matter of video cropping or deinterlacing requests.
Note: under those conditions, the visual outcome won't be correct but at
least, something gets displayed instead of bailing out.
Try to use VA/VPP processing capabilities to handle video cropping and
additional rendering flags that may not be directly supported by the
underlying hardware when exposing a suitable Wayland buffer for the
supplied VA surface. e.g. deinterlacing, different color primaries than
BT.601, etc.
Update the frame redraw infrastructure with a new FrameState stucture
holds all the necessary information used to display the next pending
surface.
While we are at it, delay the sync operation down to when it is actually
needed. That way, we keep performing additional tasks meanwhile.
Disable video cropping in MPEG-2 codec because it is partially implemented
and actually because nobody implements it that way, and the standard spec
does not specify the display process either anyway.
Most notably, there are two possible use cases for sequence_display_extension()
horizontal_display_size & vertical_display_size: (i) guesstimating the
pixel-aspect-ratio, or (ii) implement some kind of span & scan process
in conjunction with picture_display_extension() information.

Add basic deinterlacing support, i.e. bob-deinterlacing whereby only
the selected field from the input surface is kept for the target surface.
Setting gst_vaapi_filter_set_deinterlacing() method argument to
GST_VAAPI_DEINTERLACE_METHOD_NONE means to disable deinterlacing.
Also move GstVaapiDeinterlaceMethod definition from vaapipostproc plug-in
to libgstvaapi core library.

Add ProcAmp (color balance) adjustments for hue, saturation, brightness
and contrast. The respective range for each filter shall be the same as
for the VA display attributes.

-1.0 .. 1.0 with 0.0 being the default, and that means no sharpening

Add helper functions to ensure an operation VA buffer is allocated to
the right size; that filter caps get parsed and assigned to the right
operation too; and that float parameters are correctly scaled to fit
the reported range from the VA driver.
Add gst_vaapi_video_format_from_string() helper function to convert from
a video format string representation to a suitable GstVideoFormat. This
is just an alias to gst_video_format_from_string() for GStreamer 1.0.x
builds, and a proper iteration over all GstVideoFormat string representations
otherwise for earlier GStreamer 0.10.x builds.
Add helper functions to describe GstVaapiPoint and GstVaapiRectangle
structures as a standard GType. This could be useful to have them
described as a GValue later on.
Don't expose GstVaapiContext APIs and make them totally private to
libgstvaapi core library. That API would also tend to disappear in
a future revision. Likewise, don't expose GstVaapiDisplayCache API
but keep symbols visible so that the various render backends could
share a common display cache implementation in libgstvaapi.
Try to clean-up the documentation from any stale entry too.
Don't expose functions that reference a GstVaapiImageRaw, those are
meant to be internal only for implementing subpictures sync. Also add
a few private definitions to avoid functions calls for retrieving
image size and format information.
Use hardware accelerated XRenderComposite() function, from the RENDER
extension, to blit a pixmap to screen. Besides, this can also support
cropping and scaling.
Implement the new render-to-pixmap API. The only supported pixmap format
that will work is xRGB, with native byte ordering. Others might work but
they were not tested.
Add API to transfer VA urfaces to native pixmaps. Also add an API to
render a native pixmap, for completeness. In general, rendering to
pixmap would only be useful to certain VA drivers and use cases on
X11 display servers. e.g. GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap (TFP) handled
in an upper layer.
Mark dummy pictures as output already so that we don't try to submit
them to the upper layer since this is purely internal / temporary
picture for helping the decoder.
Once the picture was output, it is no longer necessary to keep an extra
reference to the underlying GstVideoCodecFrame. So, we can release it
earlier, and maybe subsequently release the associate surface proxy
earlier.
Fix new internal video format API, based on GstVideoFormat, to not
clobber with system symbols. So replace the gst_video_format_* prefix
with gst_vaapi_video_format_ prefix, even if the format type remains
GstVideoFormat.
Fix memory leak when processing interlaced pictures and that occurs
because the first field, represented as a GstVideoCodecFrame, never
gets released. i.e. when the picture is completed, this is generally
the case when the second field is successfully decoded, we need to
propagate the GstVideoCodecFrame of the first field to the original
GstVideoDecoder so that it could reclaim memory.
Otherwise, we keep accumulating the first fields into GstVideoDecoder
private frames list until the end-of-stream is reached. The frames
are eventually released there, but too late, i.e. too much memory
may have been consumed.

The queue of free objects to used was deallocated with g_queue_free_full().
However, this convenience function shall only be used if the original queue
was allocated with g_queue_new(). This caused memory corruption, eventually
leading to a crash.
The correct solution is to pair the g_queue_init() with the corresponding
g_queue_clear(), while iterating over all free objects to deallocate them.
Fix creation of surface pool objects to honour explicit pixel format
specification. If this operation is not supported, then fallback to
the older interface with chroma format.
If a VA surface was allocated with the chroma-format interface, try to
determine the underlying pixel format on gst_vaapi_surface_get_format(),
or return GST_VIDEO_FORMAT_ENCODED if this is not a supported operation.
Make it possible to create VA surfaces with a specific pixel format.
This is a new capability brought in by VA-API >= 0.34.0. If that
capability is not built-in (e.g. using VA-API < 0.34.0), then
gst_vaapi_surface_new_with_format() will return NULL.
Add gst_video_format_get_chroma_type() helper function to determine
the GstVaapiChromaType from a standard GStreamer video format. It is
possible to reconstruct that from GstVideoFormatInfo but it is much
simpler (and faster?) to use the local GstVideoFormatMap table.
Add new chroma formats available with VA-API >= 0.34.0. In particular,
this includes "RGB" chroma formats, and more YUV subsampled formats.
Also add a new from_GstVaapiChromaType() helper function to convert
libgstvaapi chroma type to VA chroma format.
Make gst_vaapi_image_pool_new() succeed, and thus returning a valid
image pool object, only if the underlying VA display does support the
requested VA image format.
Get rid of GstCaps to create surface/image pool, and use GstVideoInfo
structures instead. Those are smaller, and allows for streamlining
libgstvaapi more.
Add new video format mappings to VA image formats:
- YUV: packed YUV (YUY2, UYVY), grayscale (Y800) ;
- RGB: 32-bit RGB without alpha channel (XRGB, XBGR, RGBX, BGRX).
Fix debug message string with image format expressed with GstVideoFormat
instead of the obsolete format that turned out to be a fourcc.
This is a regression from git commit e61c5fc.
In particular, use gst_video_info_from_caps() helper function in VA image
for implementating gst_vaapi_image_get_buffer() [vaapidownload] and
gst_vaapi_image_update_from_buffer() [subpictures] in GStreamer 0.10 builds.
Drop GstVaapiImageFormat helpers since everything was moved to the new
GstVideoFormat based API. Don't bother with backwards compatibility and
just bump the library major version afterwards.

Make it possible associate an empty cropping rectangle to the surface
proxy, thus resetting any cropping rectangle that was previously set.
This allows for returning plain NULL when no cropping rectangle was
initially set up to the surface proxy, or if it was reset to defaults.
Add helper macros to retrieve the VA surface information like size
(width, height) or chroma type. This is a micro-optimization to avoid
useless function calls and NULL pointer re-checks in internal routines.
Add gst_vaapi_picture_set_crop_rect() helper function to copy the video
cropping information from raw bitstreams to each picture being decoded.
Also add helper function to surface proxy to propagate that information
outside of libgstvaapi. e.g. plug-in elements or standalone applications.
