This fixes parsing for Spectralfan.mov.
The size of a marker segment is defined to be exclusive of any initial

the size of any possible segment that is usually "reserved" or not

Switch the increment of markersize from when it is used to when it is
returned from compute_resync_marker_size.
This also makes the CHECK_REMAINING in gst_mpeg4_parse_video_packet_header
check for the actually required number of bits now and not one too few.

This reverts commit 916b954315.
Clearly something else was intended, and it also makes
more sense to add the extra bit. The resync marker is
N zero bits plus a 1 bit, and the pattern/mask needs to
be run on N+1 bits too.
(Even after the rever the code doesn't do that of course, so
it still needs to be fixed differently.)

When set, it causes videoaggregator to repeatedly aggregate the last buffer on
an EOS pad instead of skipping it and outputting silence. This is useful, for
instance, while playing back files seamless one after the other, to avoid
videoaggregator ever outputting silence (the checkerboard pattern).
It is to be noted that if all the pads on videoaggregator have this property set
on them, the mixer will never forward EOS downstream for obvious reasons. Hence,
at least one pad with 'ignore-eos' set to FALSE must send EOS to the mixer
before it will be forwarded downstream.

Provides generic handling of GL buffer objects accessible using
the GL bind points (GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, GL_PIXEL_*_BUFFER).
Implementation based off the current GstGLMemory.
5697b6b89b causes us to possibly listen
on a toolkit provided Display connection. We thus could eat their
precious winsys events. Only listen if we need to
(!foreign_display or videooverlay).
It's true that we shouldn't consider errors fatal immediately, but if we
always ignore them we will loop infinitely on live streams with segments
that can't be downloaded at all.
Add a vfunc that is called by glfilter before it sets
caps features and intersects with the peer caps, and
move removing the size from caps into its default
implementation. Allows sub-classes to do more
sophisticated management of the size fields in case they
don't support arbitrary resizing or have distinct
preferences.
Add preserve_update_caps_result boolean on the class to allow
sub-classes to disable videoaggregator removing sizes and framerate
from the update_caps() return result.
A return value of GST_FLOW_OK with a NULL buffer from get_output_buffer()
means the sub-class doesn't want to produce an output buffer, so
skip it.
If gst_videoaggregator_do_aggregate() generates an error, make sure
to propagate it - don't just ignore and discard the error by
over-writing it with the gst_pad_push() result.
Previously when compiling GstGL with both GL and GLES2,
GL_RGBA8 was picked from GL/gl.h. But a clash may happen at
runtime when one is selecting GLES2.
gst_gl_internal_format_rgba allows to check at runtime
if it should use GL_RGBA or GL_RGBA8.
Simple implementation split from GstGLWindowWayland
Can now have multiple glimagesink elements all displaying output
linked via GL or otherwise (barring GL platform limitations).
The intel driver is racy and can crash setting up the two glimagesink contexts.
e.g.
videotestsrc ! tee name=t ! queue ! glupload ! glimagesinkelement
t. ! queue ! gleffects_blur ! glimagesinkelement
videotestsrc ! glupload ! glfiltercube ! tee name=t ! queue ! glimagesinkelement
t. ! queue ! gleffects_blur ! glimagesinkelement
Otherwise we could end up being mistaken for the diference between a
gl3 and a gl2 context resulting in a failure getting the list of
extensions from the wrapped context due to the difference between
glGetString and glGetStringi for the GL_EXTENSIONS token.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=749728
When called from gst_gl_window_win32_close(), internal window
could not exist, and if it does it's going to be destroyed just
after that anyway. Also it causes window_proc() to be called
and crash because it gets a NULL context.
When called from gst_gl_window_win32_set_window_handle() we are
going to set another parent anyway, and it's probably better to
reparent directly instead of passing by a NULL parent which could
cause the internal window to popup briefly.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=749601
gst_gl_context_finalize() is calling gst_gl_window_win32_quit()
which was posting a message. But then window_proc takes window's
context and get a NULL.
Now that we've got a GMainLoop we can do like other backends and
simply call g_main_loop_quit().
This also remove duplicated code to release the parent window and
potential crash there because parent_proc could be NULL if we never
created the internal window. That could happen for example if setting
state to READY then setting a window_handle, and go back to NULL state.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=749601
gst_gl_window_win32_send_message_async() could be called before the
internal window is created so we cannot use PostMessage there.
x11 and wayland backends both create a custom GSource for this,
so there is no reason to not do that for win32.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=749601
Otherwise it could stay client side without being submitted to the GL
server resulting in another context waiting on a Fence that will never
become signalled causing a deadlock.
Make the passthrough check contingent on only the fields we
can modify being unchanged, and pre-compute it when caps
change instead of checking on each buffer. Makes the passthrough
more lenient if consumers are lax about making input and output
caps complete.
The EOS and EOB nals have the size 2 which is the size of
nal unit header itself. The gst_h265_parser_identify_nalu()
is not required to scan start code again in this case.
In other cases, for a valid nalunit the minimum required size
is 3 bytes (2 byte header and at least 1 byte RBSP payload)
Skip the byte alignment bits as per the logic of byte_alignment()
provided in hevc specification. This will fix the calculation of
slice header size.

Even for "live" streams we are not live in the GStreamer meaning of the word.
We don't produce buffers that are timestamped based on their "capture time"
and our clock, but just based on whatever timestamps the stream might contain.
Also even if we wanted to claim to be live, that wouldn't work well as we
would have to return GST_STATE_CHANGE_NO_PREROLL when going from READY to
PAUSED, which we can't. We first need data to know if we are "live" or not.
It will deadlocks as we will then join() the update task from itself. Instead
just post an actual error message on the bus and only stop the update task.
The application is then responsible for shutting down the element, and thus
all the other tasks and everything, based on the error message it gets.
This would've also triggered if for some reason the segment was updated
in such a way that PTS went backwards, but the running time increased. Like
what happens when non-flushing seeks are done.
We're doing a proper buffer-from-the-past check a few lines below based on the
running time, which is the only time we should care about here.
And keep on querying upstream until we get a reply.
Also, the _get_latency_unlocked() method required being calld
with a private lock, so removed the _unlocked() variant from the API.
And it now returns GST_CLOCK_TIME_NONE when the element is not live as
we think that 0 upstream latency is possible.

It might return OK from subclasses and it could cause a bitrate
renegotiation. For DASH and MSS that is ok as they won't expose
new pads as part of this but it can cause issues for HLS as
it will expose new pads, leading to pads that will only have EOS
that cause decodebin to fail

Chaining a downstream pool would lead to two owner of the same

In case the original caps were missing some optional fields like
interlace-mode. We assume default values for those everywhere,
but they can still cause negotiation to fail if a downstream element
expects the field to be there and at a specific value.
Otherwise the pipeline stalls when running
more than one glimagesink with gst-launch.
Also only register the custom nsapp loop
when setting up the nsapp from gstgl.
We also need to recalculate the offset, since otherwise the frame
mapping will be forward two lines in the U and V planes (I420) due
to gst_video_info_align() round up the Y plane to a even number of
lines.

Make sure we support offset and video alignment when downloading too.
This is currently not used (plane_start is always 0), but it makes

This fix a very slow rendering rate regression that only
happens when using gst-launch, i.e. in the case where
the main thread does not run any NSApp loop.
Git bisect reported it has been introduced by the commit
e10d2417e2:
"move to CGL and CAOpenGLLayer for rendering".
Then the commit 7d46357627:
"gstglwindow_cocoa: fix slow render rate" attempted to fix
the slow rendering rate problem when using gst-launch.
At least for me it does not work. I tried several
combinations, for example to flush CA transactions in the
custom app loop, as mentioned in the doc, but the only solution
that fixes the slow rendering is by reducing the loop latency.
From what I tested, no need to put less than 60ms, even if the
framerate has an interval much lower (16.6ms for 60 fps).
Anytime else, we have no idea how to match up map and unmaps.
We also don't know exactly how the calling code is using us.
Also fixes the case where we're trying to transfer while someone else
is accessing our data pointer or texture resulting in mismatched video
frames.

One has to use the src_lock anyway to protect the min/max/live so they
can be notified atomically to the src thread to wake it up on changes,
such as property changes. So no point in having a second lock.
Also, the object lock was being held across a call to
GST_ELEMENT_WARNING, guaranteeing a deadlock.
While gst_aggregator_iterate_sinkpads() makes sure that every pad is only
visited once, even when the iterator has to resync, this is not all we have
to do for querying the latency. When the iterator resyncs we actually have
to query all pads for the latency again and forget our previous results. It
might have happened that a pad was removed, which influenced the result of
the latency query.
It was between another function and its helper function before, which was
confusing when reading the code as it had nothing to do with the other
functions.
This lock is not what is commonly known as a "stream lock" in GStremer,
it's not recursive and it's taken from the non-serialized FLUSH_START event.

Move the property from subclasses to adaptivedemux, it allows
selecing the percentage of the measured bitrate to be used when
selecting stream bitrates
Allows to set a bitrate directly instead of measuring it internally
based on the received chunks. The connection-speed was removed from
mssdemux and hlsdemux as it is now in the base class
Don't use private GMutex implementation details to check
whether it has been freed already or not. Just clear mutex
and GCond unconditionally in free function, they are always
inited anyway, and the free function can't be called multiple
times either.
steal_buffer() + unref seems to be a wide-spread idiom
(which perhaps indicates that something is not quite
right with the way aggregator pad works currently).
Where possible, use the _OBJECT variants in order to track better from
which object the debug statement is coming from
Define (and use) GST_CAT_DEFAULT where applicable
Use GST_PTR_FORMAT where applicable
And use the average to go up in resolution, and the last fragment
bitrate to go down.
This allows the demuxer to react rapidly to bitrate loss, and
be conservative for bitrate improvements.
+ Add a construct only property to define the number of fragments
to consider when calculating the average moving bitrate.

If the src framerate and videoaggreator's output framerate were

Allows finer grain decisions about formats and features at each

Also provide propose_allocation for glupload besed on the supported

In gst_gl_window_cocoa_draw we used to just call setNeedsDisplay:YES. That was
creating an implicit CA transaction which was getting committed at the next
runloop iteration. Since we don't know how often the main runloop is running,
and when we run it implicitly (from gst_gl_window_cocoa_nsapp_iteration) we only
do so every 200ms, use an explicit CA transaction instead and commit it
immediately. CA transactions nest and debounce automatically so this will never
result in extra work.
Make GstGLMemory hold the texture target (tex_target) the texture it represents
(tex_id) is bound to. Modify gst_gl_memory_wrapped_texture and
gst_gl_download_perform_with_data to take the texture target as an argument.
This change is needed to support wrapping textures created outside libgstgl,
which might be bound to a target other than GL_TEXTURE_2D. For example on OSX
textures coming from VideoToolbox have target GL_TEXTURE_RECTANGLE.
With this change we still keep (and sometimes imply) GL_TEXTURE_2D as the
target of textures created with libgstgl.

Don't call glClear && glClearColor at each draw since we're going to draw the

Instead of using the GST_OBJECT_LOCK we should have

with the mutex on the EVENT_MUTEX on which we wait

Unset out buffer in clip function when we unref the buffer to be

READ_UE_ALLOWED was almost exclusively used with min == 0, which doesn't

Add a READ_UE_MAX variant and use that instead. Also replaced two usages

Depending on the platform, it was only ever implemented to 1) set a
default surface size, 2) resize based on the video frame or 3) nothing.
Instead, provide a set_preferred_size () that elements/applications
can use to request a certain size which may be ignored for
videooverlay/other cases.
Removes the use of NSOpenGL* variety and functions. Any Cocoa
specific functions that took/returned a NSOpenGL* object now
take/return the CGL equivalents.
Add more power to the chunk_received function (renamed to data_received)
and also to the fragment_finish function.
The data_received function must parse/decrypt the data if necessary and
also push it using the new push_buffer function that is exposed now. The
default implementation gets data from the stream adapter (all available)
and pushes it.
The fragment_finish function must also advance the fragment. The default
implementation only advances the fragment.
This allows the subsegment handling in dashdemux to continuously download
the same file from the server instead of stopping at every subsegment
boundary and starting a new request
If we say it is the first segment after a new period it will resync
the segment.start value and all buffers will be late for the new period
we are trying to play. Otherwise we want to keep the segment.start with
the previous value to allow the running time to smoothly increase
Check if there is a next fragment before advancing to avoid causing
a bitrate switch (and maybe exposing new pads) only to push EOS.
This causes playback to stop with an error instead of properly
finishing with EOS message.
The subsegment boundary return tells the adaptivedemux that it can
try to switch to another representation as the stream is at a suitable
position for starting from another bitrate.
In order to get some subsegment information, subclasses might want
to download only the headers to have enough data (the index)
to decide where to start downloading from the subsegment.
This allows the subclasses to know if the chunks that are downloaded are
part of the header or of the index and will parse the parts that are
of their interest.
Ensure that we do not trust the bitstream when filling a table
with a fixed max size.
Additionally, the code was not quite matching what the spec says:
- a value of 3 broke from the loop before adding an entry
- an unhandled value did not add an entry
The reference algorithm does these things differently (7.3.3.1
in ITU-T Rec. H.264 (05/2003)).
This plays (apparently correctly) the original repro file, with
no stack smashing.
Based on a patch and bug report by André Draszik <git@andred.net>
The hack causes deadlocks and other interesting problems and it really
can only be fixed properly inside GLib. We will include a patch for
GLib in our builds for now that handles this, and hopefully at some
point GLib will also merge a proper solution.
A proper solution would first require to refactor the polling in
GMainContext to only provide a single fd, e.g. via epoll/kqueue
or a thread like the one added by our patch. Then this single
fd could be retrieved from the GMainContext and directly integrated
into a NSRunLoop.

No need to use an iterator for this which creates a temporary
structure every time and also involves taking and releasing the
object lock many times in the course of iterating. Not to mention
all that GList handling in gst_aggregator_iterate_sinkpads().
The minimum latency is the latency we have to wait at least
to guarantee that all upstreams have produced data. The maximum
latency has no meaning like that and shouldn't be used for waiting.
When iterating sink pads to collect some data, we should take the stream lock so
we don't get stale data and possibly deadlock because of that. This fixes
a definitive deadlock in _wait_and_check() that manifests with high max
latencies in a live pipeline, and fixes other possible race conditions.
Segment start needs only to be updated when starting the streams
or after a seek, doing it during bitrate changes will cause the
running time to go discontinuous (jump back to a previous ts)
and QOS will drop buffers
This simplifies the code and also makes sure that we don't forget to check all
conditions for waiting.
Also fix a potential deadlock caused by not checking if we're actually still
running before starting to wait.
Actually we should always recalculate buffer size since our buffer size
even when not-padded is smaller for many sub-sampled formats. This is
because we don't add padding between the planes.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=740900
Problem was that if buffer was mapped READWRITE (state of buffers from
libav right now), mapping it READ/GL will not upload. This is because the
flag is only set when the buffer is unmapped. We can fix this by setting
the flags in map. This result in already mapped buffer that get mapped
to be read in GL will be uploaded. The problem is that if the write
mapper makes modification afterward, the modification will never get
uploaded.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=740900
When this is TRUE, we really have to produce output. This happens
in live mixing mode when we have to output something for the current
time, no matter if we have enough input or not.
This removes the uses of GAsyncQueue and replaces it with explicit
GMutex, GCond and wakeup count which is used for the non-live case.
For live pipelines, the aggregator waits on the clock until either
data arrives on all sink pads or the expected output buffer time
arrives plus the timeout/latency at which time, the subclass
produces a buffer.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=741146
To avoid race conditions with gst_task_stop(); gst_task_join() with
another thread doing gst_task_pause(), the joining thread would be
waiting for the task to stop but it would never happen. So just
use gst_task_stop() everywhere to prevent more mutexes
Check if the stream is live before checking if it is EOS as a live
stream might be considered EOS when it just needs to wait for a manifest
update to proceed with the next fragments
During flushing seeks the flushing flow return will propagate up to the
source element and all pads are going to have the flushing flag set.
So before restarting also remove that flag together with the EOS one.
We don't do that when pushing the flush stop event because our event
handler for the proxypad will drop all events.
A context can create a GLsync object that can be waited on in order
to ensure that GL resources created in one context are able to be
used in another shared context without any chance of reading invalid
data.
This meta would be placed on buffers that are known to cross from
one context to another. The receiving element would then wait
on the sync object to ensure that the data to be used is complete.
gst_video_info_set_format() will reset the complete video-info, but
we want to keep values like the PAR, colorimetry and chroma site.
Otherwise we risk setting different values on the srcpad caps than
what is actually inside the buffers.
Otherwise we might negotiate from the sinkpad streaming threads at
the same time as on the srcpad streaming thread, and then all kinds
of crazy bugs happen that don't make any sense at all.
This gives more flexibility to the subclasses and permits to remove the
GstVideoAggregatorClass->disable_frame_conversion ugly API.

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=740768
With the current code, we will end up setting the preferred downstream
format as the srcpad format, and it might not be accepted by the next
sinkpad to be added. We should instead let the next sinkpad reconfigure
everything.
Floating point numbers are written differently in different
locales, e.g. in many countries 1/2 = 0,5 instead of 0.5, and
strtod will not be able to parse "0.5" correctly in such a
locale.
Otherwise the caps of the pad might change while the subclass still works with
a buffer of the old caps, assuming the the current pad caps apply to that
buffer. Which then leads to crashes and other nice effects.
