At the end of a range request, we don't want to return GST_FLOW_EOS otherwise
the last bytes we just read will be dropped by basesrc.
Instead just return GST_FLOW_OK (which was set just before) and let basesrc
handle the fact we are at the end of the segment.
If we're at the end of a range request, read again to let libsoup
finalize the request. This allows to reuse the connection again later,
otherwise we would have to cancel the message and close the connection.
We have to get rid of the message on EOS when the complete stream is read to
remember that we successfully finished handling this specific message.
Otherwise we will cancel it later and close the connection instead of reusing
it at a later time.
It might also make sense to reuse connections if a non-200 response is
received. As long as there was no connection error, the HTTP connection should
be re-usable.
There's no real reason to avoid sending QOS/NAVIGATION events upstrea.

The heuristic to choose between packetise or not was changed to use the

The base class is useful for having multiple backing memory types other

The PBO transfer logic is now inside GstGLMemoryPBO which uses GstGLBuffer

This also moves the format utility functions into their own file.
With the VPX decoders it's not simple to use downstream buffer pool,
because we don't know the image size and alignment when buffers get
allocated. We can though use GstAllocator (for downstream, or the system
allocator) to avoid a copy before pushing if downstream supports
GstVideoMeta. This would still cause a copy for sink that requires
specialized memory and does not have a GstAllocator for that, though
it will greatly improve performance for sink like glimagesink and
cluttersink. To avoid allocating for every buffer, we also use a
internal buffer pool.

A GstGLShader is now simply a collection of stages that are

The problem is that the filesrc and souphttpsrc are behaving
differently regarding the calculation of the segment boundaries. The

inclusive, so for this reason there is no problem with the souphttpsrc,
but there is an issue in the filesrc.
The GstSegment is non-inclusive, so the proposed solution is to use
non-inclusive boundaries in the hlsdemux in order to be consistent.

will expect inclusive boundaries, but the hlsdemux will offer
non-inclusive. This change makes sure that the non-inclusive

Document that "widget" property must be accessed from the

This patch allow going gst-inspect-1.0 on these elements removing

making the widget creation as lazy as possible. This way we don't
endup doing gtk_init() before the application. We also ref_sink()
the widget, so we don't crash if the parent widget is discarded,
and cleanly error out with GL if the widget has no parent window,
because calling gtk_widget_realized() can only be done if the widget
has been parented to a window).

This gives a quick introduction to how the pulsesink/pulsesrc code
interacts with the pa_threaded_mainloop that we start up to communicate
with the server.
The stream status messages are emitted in the PA mainloop thread, which
means the mainloop lock is taken, followed by the Gst object lock (by
gst_element_post_message()). In all other locations, the order of
locking is reversed (this is unavoidable in a bunch of cases where the
object lock is taken by GstBaseSink or GstAudioBaseSink, and then we get
control to take the mainloop lock).
The only way to guarantee that the defer callback for stream status
messages doesn't deadlock is to either stop posting those messages, or
make sure that the message emission is completed before we proceed to
any point that might take the object lock before the mainloop lock
(which is what we do after this patch).

If the pipeline is stalled for too long, souphttpsrc will block and
stop fetching data from the network. This can cause the connection to
drop and souphttpsrc would handle it as an EOS. This patch makes it
persist and try to fetch more data until the end of the content length
or until receiving an error that it is beyong limits in case the content
is unknown.

Since jpegdec already parse the jpeg stream, the sink caps could be
relaxed. This will allow jpegdec to be selected in more case and in
particular when the jpeg typefinder does not find the width and height.
