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.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=769536
In function rtp_jitter_buffer_calculate_pts: If gap in incoming RTP
timestamps is more than (3 * jbuf->clock_rate) we call
rtp_jitter_buffer_reset_skew which resets pts to 0. So components down
the pipeline (playes, mixers) just skip frames/samples until pts becomes
equal to pts before gap.
In version 1.10.2 and before this checking was bypassed for packets with
"estimated dts", and gaps were handled correctly.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=778341
The lost-event was using a different time-domain (dts) than the outgoing
buffers (pts). Given certain network-conditions these two would become
sufficiently different and the lost-event contained timestamp/duration
that was really wrong. As an example GstAudioDecoder could produce
a stream that jumps back and forth in time after receiving a lost-event.
The previous behavior calculated the pts (based on the rtptime) inside the
rtp_jitter_buffer_insert function, but now this functionality has been
refactored into a new function rtp_jitter_buffer_calculate_pts that is
called much earlier in the _chain function to make pts available to
various calculations that wrongly used dts previously
(like the lost-event).
There are however two calculations where using dts is the right thing to
do: calculating the receive-jitter and the rtx-round-trip-time, where the
arrival time of the buffer from the network is the right metric
(and is what dts in fact is today).
The patch also adds two tests regarding B-frames or the
“rtptime-going-backwards”-scenario, as there were some concerns that this
patch might break this behavior (which the tests shows it does not).
Add a need-resync state, this is when we need to try to lock on to a
time/RTPtime pair.
Always check the RTP timestamps and if they go backwards, mark ourselves
as need-resync.
Only resync when need-resync is TRUE and we have a valid time. Otherwise
we keep the old values. This avoids locking on to an invalid time and
causing us to timestamp everything with -1.
Fixes https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=730417
Rework the packet queue so that the most common action (insert a packet
at the tail of the queue) goes very fast.
Report if a packet was inserted at the head instead of the tail so that
we can know when to retry _pop or _peek.
Make a new method to disable the jitterbuffer buffering.
Rework the update_estimated_eos() method. Calculate how much time
there is left to play. If we have less than the delay of the
jitterbuffer, we disabled buffering because we might never be able to
fill the complete jitterbuffer again.
If we receive an EOS event, disable buffering. We will drain the
buffer and eventually push the EOS event out.
When we reach the estimated NPT timeout and we didn't receive an EOS
event, make one and queue it so that it can be pushed.
Fixes https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=728017
Add a new timestamp mode that assumes the local and remote clock are
synchronized. It takes the first timestamp as a base time and then uses the RTP
timestamps for the output PTS.
If we were not waiting for the missing seqnum when we insert the lost packet
event in the jitterbuffer, we end up not updating the next_seqnum and wait
forever for the lost packets to arrive. Instead, keep track of the amount of
packets contained by the jitterbuffer item and update the next expected
seqnum only after pushing the buffer/event. This makes sure we correctly handle
GAPS in the sequence numbers.
Make the jitterbuffer operate on a structure containing all the packet
information. This avoids mapping the buffer multiple times just to get the RTP
information. It will also make it possible to store other miniobjects such as
events later.
When deactivating jitterbuffers when the buffering starts, keep the current
percent of the jitterbuffer and also set the jitterbuffer in the buffering state
so that we know when it's filled again.
Add property to get the buffering percentage of the jitterbuffer.
Add signal to pause the jitterbuffer. This will be emitted from gstrtpbin when
one of the jitterbuffers is buffering.
Make rtpbin collect the buffering messages and post a new buffering message with
the min value.
Remove the stats callback from jitterbuffer but pass a percent integer to
functions that affect the buffering state of the jitterbuffer. This allows us
then to post buffering messages from outside of the jitterbuffer lock.
Add callback for buffering stats.
Configure the latency in the jitterbuffer instead of passing it with _insert.
Calculate buffering levels when pushing and popping
Post buffering messages.
When we construct a timestamp that would result in a timestamp that is earlier
than when the packet was received, reset the skew calculation as this is
probably a sign that the sender restarted or paused.
