Each FLAC metadata block starts with a flag denoting whether it is the
last metadata block. The existing flacparse code moves any existing
VORBISCOMMENT block to immediately follow the STREAMINFO block without
changing any block's last-metadata-block flag. If no VORBISCOMMENT block
exists, it created one with the last-metadata-block flag set to true.
This results in gstflacdec sometimes giving bad headers to libflac when
trying to play perfectly valid FLAC files depending on the file's
metadata ordering. Depending on the contents of the other metadata
blocks, current versions of libflac may or may not return
FLAC__STREAM_DECODER_ERROR_STATUS_BAD_HEADER when given this broken
metadata. This is most noticeable with files that have a large cover art
image attached where VORBISCOMMENT is the very last metadata block with
no PADDING afterwards.
This patch changes that behavior so that:
1. For FLAC files that already have a VORBISCOMMENT block, the metadata
order is preserved.
2. For FLAC files that do not have a VORBISCOMMENT block, the generated
dummy VORBISCOMMENT is placed immediately after STREAMINFO and
inherits the last-metadata-block flag from STREAMINFO.

Sometimes the headers contain useless, wrong or zero values for e.g. the
sample size with these formats. There's only a single valid value for
them so let's set these instead.
We do not have a way to know the format modifiers to use with string
functions provided by the system. G_GUINT64_FORMAT and other string
modifiers only work for glib string formatting functions. We cannot
use them for string functions provided by the stdlib. See:

Previously we saved the buffer_timestamp straight into
mux->cluster_time. Since the cluster time saved into the file does not
have as high precision as GstClockTime depending on the timecodescale
the rounding of relative_timestamp was invalid as mux->cluster_time
which it was calculated relative to was not equal to the cluster time
written to the matroska file.
Example of "mkvinfo -v" of how it looks before and after this change in
an scenario where previously timestamps got out of order because of this
issue.
Notice the timestamp of the SimpleBlock right before and right after the
Cluster now being in order. The consequence of this however is that the
cluster timestamp is not necessarily the same as the timestamp of the
first buffer in the cluster however (in case it's rounded up).

Comparing gst_rtspsrc_loop_interleaved and gst_rtspsrc_loop_udp, and investigating on timeout issues, it sounds like a piece of code has been originally copied from udp to the interleaved one. The timeout variable is never used inside the interleaved one. No side effect has been seen in the removed function calls.
The debug message removed is pointless as the timeout used is "src->tcp_timeout" that is fixed.
The presence of the two timeout drove my team in investigating if the reference to the tcp_timeout was correct (it is). Hence we removed the misleading reference to the local timeout variable.
The VP Codec Configuration Box (vpcC) contains vp9 profile and
colorimetry information. Especially the profile information might
be useful for downstream to select capable decoder element.
For live streams, if we keep the stream for a long time, the timestamp
will be larger than max_uint32. In that case, timestamp should be handled
as a rollover timestamp rather than a backward timestamp.
* Organize GstRtpFunnelPad and GstRtpFunnel separately
* Use G_GNUC_UNUSED instead of (void) casts
* Don't call an event "caps"
* Use semicolons after GST_END_TEST (helps gst-indent)
Instead of having chunks with one sample per raw audio sample, have
chunks with a single sample that contains lots of raw audio samples. If
necessary these are still split again later when reading the stream.
With this we are allocating a lot less memory for the parsed sample
tables and can play files that previously triggered our limit of 200MB
for the sample table. For example, one file here would previously
allocate 3.5GB for the sample table and now only allocates 70KB.
Outputting 48000 buffers per second is not a good idea performance-wise.
If a container sample is less than 1024 raw audio frames, combine
multiple samples to get at least 1024 raw audio samples as long as
they're stored contiguous in the file.
For the other direction, if a container sample contains more than 4096
samples there is already code for splitting them up.

When the server replies with a range "now-", it is presumed to
be a "live" stream and we should request a similar range.
This was the case prior to my refactoring to make use of
gst_rtsp_range_to_string in 5f1a732bc7,
this commit restores the behaviour for that case.
The proper way of capping on max-streams is to do it in rtpssrcdemux.
This patch uses the newly introduced property on rtpssrcdemux. Previous
behavior would not prevent rtpssrcdemux spawning new pads for every new
ssrc and potentialy causing performance trouble during teardown.
When used for processing bundled media streams within rtpbin the rtpssrcdemux element may
receive bad RTP and RTCP packets, these should not be treated as a fatal error.
The property is useful against atacks when the sender changes SSRC for
every RTP packet. The property with the same name introduced in rtpbin
was not enough, because we still can end up with thousands of pads
allocated in rtpssrcdemux.
gstrtspsrc uses a queue, set_get_param_q, to store set param and get
param requests. The requests are put on the queue by calling
get_parameters() and set_parameter(). A thread which executs in
gst_rtspsrc_thread() then pops requests from the queue and processes
them. The crash occured because the queue became empty and a NULL
request object was then used. The reason that the queue became empty
is that it was popped even when the thread was NOT processing a get
parameter or set parameter command. The fix is to make sure that the
queue is ONLY popped when the command being processed is a set
parameter or get parameter command.
If not configuring the sinks via the "location" property this can be
useful to know for which sink the fragment was actually opened/closed,
especially if finalization of the fragments is happening asynchronously.
When connected to an upstream rtpfunnel element, payload-type,
ssrc and clock-rate will not be present in the received caps.
rtprtxsend can already deal with only the clock rate being
present there, a new property is exposed to allow users to
provide a payload-type -> clock-rate map, this enables the
use of the max-size-time property for bundled streams.
ffmpeg is doing the same and various files in the wild have bogus
information in the sample description if the same information is also
duplicated afterwards in the v1/v2 sound sample desription.
Previously we only did this for non-raw audio due to
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=374914
but this specific file is already worked around differently. It still
works after this change.
Also remove ad-hoc GST_READ_DOUBLE_BE re-implementation and move the
switch for legacy audio formats after reading all the sample
descriptions as we want to override the values from there.
By default imagefreeze will still reject new buffers after the first one
and immediately return GST_FLOW_EOS but the new allow-replace property
allows to change this.
Whenever updating the buffer we now also keep track of the configured
caps of the buffer and from the source pad task negotiate correctly
based on the potentially updated caps.
Only the very first time negotiation of a framerate with downstream is
performed, afterwards only the caps themselves apart from the framerate
are updated.
Elements emitting frames through several srcpads should use a
flow combiner to aggregate the chain returns and therefore only return
GST_FLOW_NOT_LINKED to upstream when all the downstream pads have
received GST_FLOW_NOT_LINKED.
In addition to that, in order to handle pads being relinked downstream,
the flow combiner should be reset in response to RECONFIGURE events.
This ensures that a both srcpads process a chain operation before a
GST_FLOW_NOT_LINKED can be propagated upstream (which would usually stop
the pipeline).
Otherwise, in a configuration with two srcpads, only one linked at a
time, after the relink the element could chain data through the now
unlinked pad and the flow combiner would resolve as GST_FLOW_NOT_LINKED
(stopping the pipeline) just because the now linked pad has not been
chained yet to update the flow combiner.
This patch adds handling of RECONFIGURE events to qtdemux. Also, since
this event handling causes the flow combiner to be used from a thread
other than the qtdemux streaming thread, usages of the flow combiner
has been guarded by the object lock.
The key is to make sure the jitterbuffer is set to NULL *before* the
ptdemux.
The race that existed would basically happen when ptdemux had reached
READY, and the jitterbuffer would then push a buffer, triggering a new
pad with a new payloadtype being added and ghosted to the rtpbin itself.
However, the srcpad of the ptdemux would now be inactive, and all the
sticky-event pushed on it would be swallowed, not allowing any to reach
the ghost-pad. Then the buffer in-flight would come to the ghostpad,
and we would assert that a buffer arrived before the necessary
events.
By simply re-ordering the state-changes, we ensure that there will be
no buffer racing into the ptdemux while its state is being changed,
and the problem disappears completely.
Notice also that there is not point in disconnecting the signals on the
ptdemux before this point, since we need the push-thread to settle
down before we can do this in a non-racy way.
