In certain applications, splitting into files named after a base
location template and an incremental sequence number is not enough.
This signal gives more fine-grained control to the application to
decide how to name the files.

Fix 2 startup races when things happen too quickly, and 1
at shutdown by holding a ref to the pads in use until the
loop functions exit.
Handle errors activating file parts and publish them on
the bus.

Sometimes, extra async-start/done from the internal sink
while the element is still starting up can cause splitmuxsink
to stall in PAUSED state when it has been set to PLAYING
by the app. Drop the child's async-start/done messages while
switching, so they don't cause state changes at the
splitmuxsink level.

When deciding whether it's time to switch to a new file, take into
account data that's been released for pushing, but hasn't yet
been pushed - because downstream is slow or the threads haven't been
scheduled.
Fixes a race in the unit test and probably in practice - sometimes
failing to switch when it should for an extra GOP or two.
Also fix a problem in splitmuxsrc where playback sometimes
stalls at startup if types are found too quickly.

This new mode ensures that files will never exceed a certain duration
based on incoming buffer PTS (and duration if present)
Note:
* You need timestamped buffers (duh). If some of the incoming buffers don't
have PTS, then it will just accept them in the current file
This property can be used in combination with next-file=max-size
(and perhaps a future next-file=max-duration) to make sure that
each file part starts cleanly with a key frame and the appropriate headers.
In order for this property to work correctly, upstream elements should make
sure than any headers that need to be written in a standalone file are:
1) in the streamheader caps field
2) and/or in the stream as one or more buffers marked with GST_BUFFER_FLAG_HEADER
that are just before the keyframe buffer
This is useful for MPEG-TS/MPEG-PS file segmenting in
combination with mpegtsmux or mpegpsmux.
Original patch by: Tim-Philipp Müller <tim@centricular.com>
because _release_pad tries to release it from ctx->sinkpad, which is
multiqueue's sink pad, and currently fails because the probe is not
installed there
When multifilesink is operating in any mode other than one file
per buffer, the last file created won't have a file message posted
as multifilesink doesn't handle the EOS event.
This patch fixes it by using the last position to post a file
message when EOS is received. This should ensure at least the
time related data and the filename are posted to the application
or other elements
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=747000
Handle the case where a short file reaches EOS while we're still
waiting for no-more-pads, and make sure we continue to the internal
READY state for real playback to work properly later.
Implement 2 new elements - splitmuxsink and splitmuxsrc.
splitmuxsink is a bin which wraps a muxer and takes 1 video stream,
plus audio/subtitle streams, and starts a new file
whenever necessary to avoid overrunning a threshold of either bytes
or time. New files are started at a keyframe, and corresponding audio
and subtitle streams are split at packet boundaries to match
video GOP timestamps.
splitmuxsrc is a corresponding source element which handles
the splitmux:// URL and plays back all component files,
reconstructing the original elementary streams as it goes.
They are very confusing for people, and more often than not
also just not very accurate. Seeing 'last reviewed: 2005' in
your docs is not very confidence-inspiring. Let's just remove
those comments.
