There is no reason why we should mandate people to "at least" use the static
sink pad. This caused issues, like mandating that it should always have valid
content linked to it (problematic in case of upstream stream changes).
Instead we only use it if it's actually linked to, in which case it gets added
to the list of inputs.
This actually simplifies the code too.

When checking whether a no-longer used output could be re-used for another slot,
we only want to do that for streams which are not still used.
Otherwise we end up potentially re-assigning a demuxer stream to a completely
different one
Furthermore, if we *are* re-using an output slot, indicate what the replacement
GstStream will be so slot matching can work properly (which can happen in the
case of demuxers which add/remove all pads even if only a single one changed)

We only want to switch to a selection of an output collection if all streams are
present.
This was previously only done in one place (when triggering by new incoming
streams) but not when triggered by user/application.
Avoid this by moving the check to handle_stream_switch()

Don't assume that video/x-raw caps means buffers are mappable
or can be processed by videoconvert and friends. Only plug
those converters for real system memory, and treat other
memory capsfeatures as hardware surfaces

There is the possibility than an element/code/helper creates an identical
`GstStream` (same type and stream-id) instance instead of re-using a previous
one.
For those cases, when detecting whether a `GstStream` is already present in a
collection, we need to do more checks than just comparing the pointer.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/7716>
If we can't get the current caps when receiving a stream-start, that's fine,
they can/will be provided by other means at a later time.
What we definitely should not do is provide the starting caps of the chain,
which are potentially completely different from the end ones (like for example
`application/x-rtp`)

We want to ensure the stream-collection is present on the pad (as a sticky
event) before we expose the pad.
This is more reliable since it will ensure it is present before any other event
is pushed through.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/7609>
In order to ensure all initial events (stream-start, caps, ..) are present on
pads that we expose, those various sticky events are propagated (from parsebin
to multiqueue output, from multiqueue output to exposed pads).
The problem was that the "hack" in `urisourcebin` to inform downstream elements
that the stream is parsed data and a collection will be present was only done in
one place : a probe on the output of parsebin ... but the stream-start could
potentially have already been propagated to the output pads before that.
In order to fix that, we make sure any pending sticky stream-start event is
updated before being propagated.

Previously urisourcebin only allows stream-collections messages from adaptive
demuxers or sources to be posted.
This commit also allows the case where they come from a single parsebin. We
still want to prevent it in the case where they are multiple parsebins, since
that would require some form of aggregation to show a single/unified collection.
In order to avoid a regression with uridecodebin3 behavior, we also implement
support for GST_QUERY_SELECTABLE, so that uridecodebin3 can figure out whether
it should let GST_MESSAGE_STREAM_COLLECTION flow upwards (because app/user could
react on it) or whether it drops it in order for decodebin3 to do the collection
aggregation and posting.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/7597>
The presence (or not) of a collection on an input will determine whether events
will be throttled so that there are only forwarded when that input gets a valid
collection.
Therefore the input lock should be used.
In addition to that, we want to ensure that the application/user has a chance to
reliably (i.e. synchronously) specify what streams it is interested in by
sending a GST_EVENT_SELECT_STREAMS.
But we cannot allow anything to go forward until that message posting has come
back, otherwise we run in various races.

I didn't find the behavior and purpose of streamsynchronizer documented
or intuitive. Eventually I got Edward to explain it to me, which was
very helpful. Now I'm contributing some docs so that the next person
doesn't have to figure it out by asking around and hoping for an answer.

We were storing the probe id in a different structure (DecodebinOutputStream)
than the pad it is targetting (which is in MultiQueueSlot).
The problem is that when re-targetting outputs (to a different slot)... we would
end up having an invalid probe id, or not have a reference to an existing one.
Instead, store the probe id in the same structure as the pad it's targetting

ensure_input_parsebin() has a top comment saying it must be called with
INPUT_LOCK taken, but 2 out of 3 usages of the function call it without
taking that mutex.
This patch adds locking in these two remaining usages.

This fixes a regression introduced by 6c4f52ea20
There are cases where the input stream will be push-based, time-segment and not
have a collection nor caps. This means the event-based checks are not sufficient
to decide when/where to plug in a identity or parsebin to process the input.
For those corner cases we setup a buffer probe to ensure we always end up with
at least a parsebin
Fixes#3609
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/7010>
When dealing with push-based inputs, we are now delaying the creation of
parsebin/identity until we get all pre-buffer events.
We therefore can simplify the handling of new pads being linked and only have to
check if upstream can handle pull-based or not.
Avoids creating parsebin for parsed upstream data altogether
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/6953>
When we are dealing with parsed inputs (i.e. using identity), we need to ensure
that we have a valid stream collection (and therefore DBCollection) before
anything flows dowsntream.
In those cases, we hold onto those events until we get such a collection.
Fixes#3356

This commit separates collection and selections into a new separate structure:
DecodebinCollection.
This provides a much cleaner/saner way of dealing with collections being
updated, gapless playback, etc...
There is now a list of DecodebinCollection in flight, of which two are special:
* input_collection, the currently inputted/merged collection
* output_collection, the currently active collection on the output of multiqueue
Handling GST_EVENT_SELECT_STREAMS is split, by looking for the collection to
which it applies. And the requested streams are stored in it. IIF that
collection is output_collection we can do the switch, else it will be updated
when it becomes active.
Detecting which collection/selection is active is done by looking at the
GST_EVENT_STREAM_START on the output of the multiqueue.
