Keep a pointer to the bufferpool. Release the buffer to the pool when
finalizing. Make sure the pool sets itself as the pool member of buffers that it
sends out.
Move some methods around.
Make sure we check for config parsing errors.
Increment the outstanding buffers before calling acquire so that we can be sure
that set_active() doesn't free the pool from under us.
Add start/stop methods to allow for bulk allocation of buffers.
Free buffers only when all outstanding buffers returned.
Make things more threadsafe wrt flushing and starting/stopping by
keeping track of start and stop method calls.
Use a lock to protect concurrect execution of set_config and set_active.
Start freeing the buffers when flushing and all buffers are returned to the
pool.
Make a copy of the config to avoid crashing with concurrent access.
Keep track if the buffer is configured and block activation when not configured
yet.
Keep track of outstanding buffers and disallow configuration when not all
buffers are returned to the pool. We need to do this or else we might end up
with wrong buffers in the pool.
Add return value to set_active.
Small cleanups. Fix finalize.
Use a GstStructure to provide the pool with the right configuration. Also
provide some helper methods to configure such a structure.
don't pass the config in alloc_buffer, pool implementation will already have
parsed it during set_config.
Update defs
It's often not obvious to people that elements like e.g. uridecodebin
(or demuxers) automatically support the standard signals of the
GstElement class, so let's print the useful pad-related ones for
elements with sometimes pads.
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.
Add function that (unlike the GLib equivalent) also accepts paths that
aren't absolute and will clean up relative markers such as ./ and ../
before forming a URI.
Fixes warnings with e.g. filesrc location=foo ! typefind caused by the
recent switch to g_filename_to_uri(), but also actually creates valid
URIs for the first time.
Windows code paths could need some more work, e.g. we don't clean up
the relative markers there for now (because path could have \ and /
as separators).
API: gst_filename_to_uri()
When option "-i" is given, set an index object on the pipeline and compute
statistics for all index writers. Print a sumary when shutting down the
pipeline.
Add an owner private field where the owner of a buffer can store some extra
information. We can use this to implement most of the subclassing that happens
now. Later this will be removed and replaced by arbitrary buffer metadata.
