TOC support in mastroskamux has been deactivated for a couple of years. This commit updates it to recent GstToc evolutions and introduces toc unit tests for both matroska-mux and matroska-demux.
There are two UIDs for Chapters in Matroska's specifications:
- The ChapterUID is a mandatory unsigned integer which internally refers to a given chapter. Except for title & language which use dedicated fields, this UID can also be used to add tags to the Chapter. The tags come in a separate section of the container.
- The ChapterStringUID is an optional UTF-8 string which also uniquely refers to a chapter but from an external perspective. It can act as a "WebVTT cue identifier" which "can be used to reference a specific cue, for example from script or CSS".
During muxing, the ChapterUID is generated and checked for unicity, while the ChapterStringUID receives the user defined UID. In order to be able to refer to chapters from the tags section, we maintain an internal Toc tree with the generated ChapterUID.
When demuxing, the ChapterStringUIDs (if available) are assigned to the GstTocEntries UIDs and an internal toc mimicking the toc is used to keep track of the ChapterUIDs and match the tags with the appropriate GstTocEntries.

If we saw empty segments, we previously unconditionally pushed a
GAP event downstream regardless of the duration of that empty
segment.
In order to avoid issues with initial negotiation of downstream elements
(which would negotiate to something before receiving any data due to
that initial GAP event), check if there's at least a second of difference
(like we do for other GAP-related checks in qtdemux) before
deciding to push a GAP event downstream.
Otherwise baseparse will incrementally send us bigger buffers until the
full header size is reached, which is not only pointless but also means
that baseparse will reallocate and copy into a bigger buffer for every
input buffers. In pull mode that's done in 64kb increments, in push mode
usually in much smaller increments, causing a lot of overhead for
example when parsing high-quality coverart.
When receiving a seek event, check whether we can actually seek based
on the information the server provided.
Also add more documentation on what the seekable field means
If a reserved-max-duration is set, we should always track
and update the reserved-duration-remaining estimate, even
if we're not sending periodic moov updates downstream for
full robust muxing.
If the use-robust-muxing property is set, check if the
assigned muxer has reserved-max-duration and
reserved-duration-remaining properties, and if so set
the configured maximum duration to the reserved-max-duration
property, and monitor the remaining space to start
a new file if the reserved header space is about to run out -
even though it never ought to.
Switching to a new fragment because the input caps have
changed didn't properly end the previous file. Use the normal
EOS sequence to ensure that happens. Add a test that it works.
Only for byte-stream or hev1. For hvc1 the SPS/PPS are in the
caps as codec_data field and in this case they shouldn't be in
the stream data as well. The output caps should be updated with
the new codec_data if needed, for hvc1.
We keep the boolean byte_stream around since it's nicer for
readability and most of the code just cares about byte_stream
or not. This is useful for future-proofing the code for when
we add support for hev1 output as well.
This would happen if input is byte-stream with four-byte
sync markers instead of three-byte ones. The code that
scans for sync markers will place the start of the NALU
on the third-last byte of the NALU sync marker, which
means that any additional zeros may be counted as belonging
to the previous NALU instead of being part of the next sync
marker. Fix that so we don't send VPS/SPS/PPS with trailing
zeros in this case.
See https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=732758
There is no difference between pushing out a buffer directly
with gst_rtp_base_depayload_push() and returning it from the
process function. The base class will just call _depayload_push()
on the returned buffer as well.
So instead of marshalling buffers through three layers and back,
just push them from one place in handle_nal() and always return
NULL from the process vfunc. This simplifies the code a little.
Also rename _push_fragmentation_unit() to _finish_fragmentation_unit()
for clarity. Push sounds like it means being pushed out, whereas
it might just be pushed into an adapter.
This change has the side-effect that multiple NALs in a single STAP
(such as SPS/PPS) may no longer be pushed out as a single buffer if
we output NALs in byte-stream format (i.e. not aggregate AUs), but
that shouldn't really make any difference to anyone.
This would happen if input is byte-stream with four-byte
sync markers instead of three-byte ones. The code that
scans for sync markers will place the start of the NALU
on the third-last byte of the NALU sync marker, which
means that any additional zeros may be counted as belonging
to the previous NALU instead of being part of the next sync
marker. Fix that so we don't send SPS/PPS with trailing
zeros in this case.

Returning FALSE because we drop an event means that
internal sources like qtdemux might throw an error
and break the whole pipeline. The only time it can
happen is either flushing or shutdown, and those
will be handled anyway.
... and forward colorimetry to downstream. The Colour element describes
various color information (similar to 'colr' box in isobmff).
Note that, due to the comparatively limited syntax for color information
in vpx codecs, the color information in mkv/wemb container level
should be used for sophisticated color handling (e.g., HDR video).

The G722 payload only accepts G722 audio with channels=1, so it must
specify the encoding-params=1 in its src caps, otherwise it causes issues
with farstream which thinks it supports 2 channels G722 and when
confronted with a remote that has G722/8000/2, it will negotiate it
and error out with a not-negotiated when the caps don't intersect

This then just counts samples and calculates the output timestamps based
on that and the very first observed timestamp. The timestamps on the
buffers are continued to be used to detect discontinuities that are too
big and reset the counter at that point.
When receiving data via Bluetooth, many devices put completely wrong
values into the RTP timestamp field. For example iOS seems to put a
timestamp in milliseconds in there, instead of something based on the
current sample offset (RTP clock-rate == sample rate).

Doesn't do anything fancy yet, but still avoids lots of
unnecessary locking/unlocking that would happen if the
default chain_list fallback function in GstPad got invoked.
Timestamp offsets needs to be checked to detect unrealistic values
caused for example by NTP clocks not in sync. The new parameter
max-ts-offset lets the user decide an upper offset limit. There
are two different cases for checking the offset based on if
ntp-sync is used or not:
1) ntp-sync enabled
Only negative offsest are allowed since a positive offset would
mean that the sender and receiver clocks are not in sync.
Default vaule of max-ts-offset = 0 (disabled)
2) ntp-sync disabled
Both positive and negative offsets are allowed.
Default vaule of max-ts-offset = 3000000000
The reason for different default values is to be backwards
compatible.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=785733
Instant large changes to ts_offset may cause timestamps to move
backwards and also cause visible effects in media playback. The new
option max-ts-offset-adjustment lets the application control the rate to
apply changes to ts_offset.

Fix chain function not handling not-linked from baseparse.
When an input data is separated into 2 buffers, the second buffer

Callers of the API (rtpsource, rtpjitterbuffer) pass clock_rate
as a signed integer, and the comparison "<= 0" is used against
it, leading me to think the intention was to have the field
be typed as gint32, not guint32.
This led to situations where we could call scale_int with
a MAX_UINT32 (-1) guint32 as the denom, thus raising an
assertion.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=785991
... which no longer worked due to unconditionally clearing sample info and

Do not allocate payload size outbuf if appending payload buffer.
The commit 137672ff18 attached payload
to the output buffer but forgot to remove payload allocation. That
effectively doubled payload size and add zero'ed or random bytes.
Makes the following pipeline work again:
gst-launch-1.0 -v audiotestsrc wave=2 ! gsmenc ! rtpgsmpay ! rtpgsmdepay ! gsmdec ! autoaudiosink
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=784616
gst_util_uint64_scale_int takes a gint as denom parameter
whereas ctx->clock_rate is a guint32.
It happens when gst_rtp_packet_rate_ctx_reset set clock_rate
to -1.
So just define clock_rate as gint like it is done in rtpsource.h

When set this property will allow the jitterbuffer to start delivering
packets as soon as N most recent packets have consecutive seqnum. A
faststart-min-packets of zero disables this feature. This heuristic is
also used in rtpsource which implements the probation mechanism and a
similar heuristic is used to handle long gaps.

We currently send data to the RTSP connection from multiple threads:
whenever a command is to be handled and whenever RTCP is generated. This
can cause data corruption or worse if both happen at the same time.
As such, protect gst_rtsp_connection_send() and gst_rtsp_connection_receive()
calls with a mutex. While this means that we hold a mutex during the IO
operation, this is not actually a problem as the IO operation can be
interrupted (gst_rtsp_connection_flush()) at any time and is blocking by
itself anyway.
The last entry will most likely get new samples added to it in "robust"
muxing mode, changing the samples_per_chunk and thus making it wrong to
keep the last two entries merged. It will run into an assertion later
when adding a new sample to the chunk.
Thanks to gdiener@cardinalpeak.com for the analysis of the bug and
proposal for a solution.
There might be other chunks after the data chunk, so clipping the chunk
size with the data size can lead to a negative number and all following
calculations go wrong and cause crashes or worse.

we output NALs in byte-stream format (i.e. not aggregate AUs), but
that shouldn't really make any difference to anyone.
Use the ::process_rtp_packet() vfunc to avoid mapping the

gst_rtp_buffer_get_payload_buffer() returns a new sub-buffer

Every g_quark_from_static_string() is a hash table lookup serialised

We only accept new caps if they are basically the same. We don't want to
reset anything as if the caps are new, otherwise various state could get

We have some padding added after the initial moov, so a bigger updated
moov can be handled to some degree and is expected. Previously we just
ignored the padding and errored out in cases when the padding would've
just been enough.
This sets up a moov with the correct sample positions beforehand and
only works with constant framerate, I-frame only streams.
Currently only support for ProRes and raw audio is implemented but
adding new codecs is just a matter of defining appropriate maximum frame
sizes.

When muxing raw audio, we have no way of storing timestamps but are just

Re-arrange order of index entry struct members to avoid padding
bytes in the middle of the struct, thus potentially reducing the
overall size of the struct and reducing memory used by the index.
On Linux x86_64 the size goes down from 32 bytes to 24 bytes for
each index entry.
If no clock was provided directly by rtspsrc. This behaviour was removed
by f8013487c9 and results in rtspsrc not
providing the system clock via the rtpjitterbuffer.
As a result, if another element like an audio sink, provides a clock,
the pipeline would select that (when going to PAUSED/PLAYING again later).
Audio clocks usually don't progress in PAUSED, and thus our live source
won't be able to use the clock to produce data, making the sink never
preroll and everything is stuck.
... unless the muxer uses the same audio pad template name as
splitmuxsink. We can't request a pad called "audio_0" on a muxer that
wants pads to be "sink_%d".
In push mode we process as much as possible in the adapter. When we receive
a DISCONT buffer which we can't match to an actual sample (based on the existing
sample table) and there is still data remaining in the incoming adapter,there is
one of two cases happening:
1) We are doing reverse playback, in which case we should flush out all pending
data
2) We have leftover data from the previous incoming buffer... which we can't do
anything about.
For the second case, make sure we flush out the remaining data so that we can start
parsing again from scratch.

They should have ideally the same timescale of the video track, which we
can't guarantee here as in theory timecode configuration and video
framerate could be different. However we should set a correct timescale
based on the framerate given in the timecode configuration, and not just
use the framerate numerator.
Make sure offset and neededbytes are properly resetted when all
streams are EOS in push-mode.
Avoids cases when some data might still be pushed by upstream (because

Fixes using wrong pointer values in the case of decrasing DTS value
Before pushing a sample, check if there was a change in the current
stsd entry. This patch also assumes that the first stsd entry is
used as default for the first sample. It might cause an uneeded
caps renegotiation when this isn't the case.
stsd can have multiple format entries, parse them all.
This is required to play DVB DASH profile that uses multiple entries
to identify the different available bitrates/options on dash streams
The stream format-specific data is not stored into QtDemuxStreamStsdEntry
Instead of using the stsd as a base pointer, use the actual stsd
entry as the stsd can have multiple entries. This is rarely used
for file playback but is a possible profile with in DVB DASH specs.
This still doesn't support stsd with multiple entries but makes it
easier to do so.
AudioSpecifigConfig is used in a variety of AAC streams but was

According to ISO/IEC:14496-2:2009 , in the case of HE-AACv2 (audioObjecType
29) parametric stereo is used (a single mono track is used and then
transformations are applied to it to provide a stereo output).
We therefore report two channels in the case where there is one reported
in the audioChannelConfiguration.
Fixes the various issues where a demuxer would report two channels, but
then the parser would say there's only one channel, and then the decoder
would output two channels.
last_buf is the one we're going to write next, not buf. As such we
should check timestamps against that one if there is one to select the
earliest pad.
Also remember the currently selected pad in the very beginning when
storing the first last_buf.
This both solves some edge cases where not the correct next pad was
selected corresponding to the target interleave.
This is an update of d78d589627
We still exit as early as possible in case of non-ok/non-unlinked combined
flow, but we first make sure that we update the internal position variables.
This ensures that if upstreams "ignores" the flow return (and carries on pushing),
we don't end up processing data with completely bogus variables/positions.
If self->channel_positions == NULL (which seems unlikely),
self->default_channels_ordering_map will be used unintialised.
We avoid that by keeping track of the channel_mask, which is set when
the ordering map is initialised.

When there are more than 64 channels, we don't want to exceed the

TFDTs with time 0 are being ignored since commit 1fc3d42f. They're

If we have multiple tracks with timecodes, or it's not the first track

original track the next time it has data.
Similar to what was done in adaptivedemux, ignore seek

on every srcpad of files with lots of streams.
Otherwise mdatleft will have a value calculated from the initial

This prevents storing an infinite amount of e.g. comment headers if they
come without a new initialization header in front of them. There can

If we also replace all headers when receiving any possibly following
