This is especially needed when switching between a non-sparse and sparse
video stream, see bug #537382. It also lowers the time needed for switching
between streams a bit.
Before playbin2 would use different selectors for raw audio and
compressed audio (and the same for video) and used different
pads from playsink. This made the involved logic much more
complex and was not implemented completely in playsink, which
made it impossible to support files with a compressed and
uncompressed stream that is support by the sink.
playbin2 handles raw/non-raw streams the same now and the
decision is left to playsink, which now can also handle
caps changes from raw to non-raw and the other way around.
Fixes bug #632788.
In addition to ensuring that an element we want to select in
autoplug-select can enter the READY state, we also now check if it can
accept the caps we wish to plug it for. This is handy for sinks that
need to perform a probe to figure out whether they can actually handle a
given format.
Add "source-setup" signal for convenience and discoverability. No need
to figure out "notify::source", look up the notify callback signature,
then do an g_object_get() to get the source element..

This lock is taken when activating a group, which could result in
calling the autoplug-continue callback, which also needs this lock
to access the sinks.
See bug #642174.
Don't build merge the caps of all sinks but check them one-by-one
until one supports the caps. Also get reffed caps from the sinkpads
instead of a writable copy and add debug output if a sink claims to
support ANY caps.
Streamsynchronizer excepts to see stream-changed msg for all streams, but to
arrange for this, video and subtitle streams need to be decoupled by means
of queues (due to pad blocks that may occur).
Fixes#626463.
Fixes spurious errors that happen after an error and playing a working
stream afterwards or signals that are emitted for non-active groups.
Fixes bug #624266.
This reverts commit 9d7538247f.
If the DVD subpicture caps are not part of the raw caps, uridecodebin
doesn't qualify resindvdbin as raw source and plugs decodebins, which
causes broken DVD playback because of bugs elsewhere.
This change was originally added to only expose supported, raw subtitles,
e.g. if the subtitle sink did not support DVD subpictures but a converter
to some supported format exists. It's not very important right now because
we have nothing (that is autoplugged) to convert from plaintext/pango-markup
or DVD subpictures to something else.
Fixes bug #623583.
Otherwise the uridecodebin will be still a child of playbin2 and
its signals will still be connected. In future state changes this
will then emit unrelated signals that will confuse playbin2 or,
even worse, cause crashes and assertions.
Fixes bug #623318.
Move the convert_frame function to playsink and make it part of the API. This is
in preparation to add the convert_frame signal to playsink.
See #620279
For this add subtitle encoding properties to playsink and subtitleoverlay
and update the values in the containing elements.
Also update the font description in textoverlay or the used renderer
element if it is changed during playback.
Fixes bug #610310.
This reverts commit 7335ce5d3e.
Support abusing the uri property to configure the next uri to play
outside of the about-to-finish handler for the time being after all.
We also shouldn't use thread private structures for this, since it
should be possible to block the thread that emitted about-to-finish
while the main thread sets the uri property. See #607226.
Changing the URIs in a state > READY results in unexpected behaviour,
i.e. the new URIs are only used after the current track has finished.
Fixes bug #607226.
