When the first buffer arrives, we endup calling:
->prepare()
->prepare()
->preroll()
->render()
This will likely confuse any element using this method. With this patch,
we ensure the preroll take place before the first render prepare() is
called. This will result in:
->prepare()
->preroll()
->prepare()
->render()

This reverts commit 2e278aeb71.
Some parsers, specifically audio parsers, assume to get all remaining
data on EOS and just pass them onwards. While the idea here is correct,
we will probably need a property for this on baseparse for parsers to
opt-in.

Implement handling in basesink to not unconditionally discard
out-of-segment buffers and expose it as a new property on fakesink
(not unconditionally in all basesink based sinks).
The property defaults to FALSE.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765734
baseparse would pass whatever is left in the adapter to the
subclass when draining, even if it's less than the minimum
frame size required. This is bogus, baseparse should just
discard that data then. The original intention of that code
seems to have been that if we have more data available than
the minimum required we should pass all of the data available
and not just the minimum required, which does make sense, so
we'll continue to do that in the case that more data is available.

The durations of the buffers are (usually) assuming that no frames are being
dropped and are just the durations coming from the stream. However if we do
trickmodes, frames are being dropped regularly especially if only key units
are supposed to be played.

If segment.stop was given, and the subclass provides a size that might be
smaller than segment.stop and also smaller than the actual size, we would
already stop there.
Instead try reading up to segment.stop, the goal is to ignore the (possibly
inaccurate) size the subclass gives and finish until segment.stop or when the
subclass tells us to stop.
Waiting before posting calculated bitrates seems to be the
intent of the code, so avoid adding them to the tag list
pushed with the first frame.
When the threshold is reached, gst_base_parse_update_bitrates
sets tags_changed, so this posts the calculated ones right
that moment.
This prevents an insane average calculated from just the
first (key) frame from getting posted.

There must be a SEGMENT event before the GAP event, and SEGMENT events must
come after any CAPS event. We however did not produce any CAPS yet, so we need
to ensure to insert the CAPS event before the SEGMENT event into the pending
events list.

If we were in PAUSED, the current clock time and base time don't have much to
do with the running time anymore as the clock might have advanced while we
were PAUSED. The system clock does that for example, audio clocks often don't.
Updating the start time in PAUSED will cause a) the wrong position to be
reported, b) step events to step not just the requested amount but the amount
of time we spent in PAUSED. The start time should only ever be updated when
going from PLAYING to PAUSED to remember the current running time (to be able
to compensate later when going to PLAYING for the clock time advancing while
PAUSED), not when we are already in PAUSED.
Based on a patch by Kishore Arepalli <kishore.arepalli@gmail.com>
The updating of the start time when the state is lost was added in commit
ba943a82c0 to fix the position reporting when
the state is lost. This still works correctly after this change.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=739289
We don't do calculations with different units (buffer offsets and bytes)
anymore but have functions for:
1) getting the number of bytes since the last discont
2) getting the offset (and pts/dts) at the last discont
and the previously added function to get the last offset and its distance from
the current adapter position.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=766647
API: gst_buffer_prev_offset
API: gst_buffer_get_offset_from_discont
The gst_buffer_get_offset_from_discont() method allows retrieving the current
offset based on the GST_BUFFER_OFFSET of the buffers that were pushed in.
The offset will be set initially by the GST_BUFFER_OFFSET of
DISCONT buffers, and then incremented by the sizes of the following
buffers.
The gst_buffer_prev_offset() method allows retrievent the previous
GST_BUFFER_OFFSET regardless of flags. It works in the same way as
the other gst_buffer_prev_*() methods.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=766647
The subclass should do that already, but just in case do it ourselves too as a
fallback. Without this, e.g. playbin will just wait forever if this fails
because it is triggered as part of an ASYNC state change.
Otherwise PTS and DTS will come out of sync if upstream continues to provide
PTS and not DTS, and we have to skip some data from the stream or PTS are not
exactly increasing with the duration of each packet.

gsttypefindhelper.c:485: Warning: GstBase: invalid "transfer" annotation for gsize: only valid for array, struct, union, boxed, object and interface types
If we don't store the value in prev_dts, we would over and over again
initialize the DTS from the last known upstream PTS. If upstream only provides
PTS every now and then, then this causes DTS to be rather static.
For example in adaptive streaming scenarios this means that all buffers in a
fragment will have exactly the same DTS while the PTS is properly updated. As
our queues are now preferring to do buffer fill level calculations on DTS,
this is causing huge problems there.
See https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=691481#c27 where this part of
the code was introduced.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765096
It is calling do_sync(), which requires the STREAM_LOCK and PREROLL_LOCK to be

This is the best guess we can make if such a buffer reached the collect
pad. This is uncommon, we do expect parsers to have tried and fixed that
if possible (or needed).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=762207
Many parsers are storing tags only in pre_push_frame(), if we wouldn't check
afterwards we would push buffers before those tags and a lot of code assumes that
tags are available before preroll.

We have no guarantees about what flags are set on buffers we take
out of the GstAdapter. If we push out multiple buffers from the
first input buffer (which will have discont set), only the first
buffer we push out should be flagged as discont, not all of the
buffers produced from that first initial input buffer.
Fixes issue where the first few mp3 frames/seconds of data in push
mode were skipped or garbled in some cases, and the discont flags
would also trip up decoders which were getting drained/flushed for
every buffer. This was a regression introduced in 1.6 apparently.
Currently, the query values are being set even if the query itself was
determined to have failed. Fix this to ensure the values are only set in
case of a query success.

Watching videos with variant bitrate is common to have delta
more than 10 kbps, resulting in tag list spam.
Instead of relying on fixed 10 kpbs delta, it is better to
calculale the difference in percentage and update tag list
only when bitrate changes more than 2%.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=759055
This reverts commit 2c475a0355.
This causes issues with h264parse. It breaks timestamps as
there are headers in the middle of the stream and this patch
makes the timestamps for those differ from the ones that
are adjusted, creating a discontinuity and leading to sync
issues.
Otherwise the buffer was left with the original values and later would
be compared with other buffers that were converted to runninn time,
leading to bad interleaving of multiple streams.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=757961
baseparse tries to preserve timestamps from upstream if
it is running on a time segment and write that to
output buffers. It assumes the first DTS is going to be
segment.start and sets that to the first buffers. In case
the buffer is a header buffer, it had no timestamps and
will have only the DTS set due to this mechanism.
This patch prevents this by skipping this behavior for
header buffers.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=757961
They take a GstBaseSink instance as argument at not a GstPad. Rename the

gst_segment_to_position might cause confusion, especially with the addition of
gst_segment_position_from_stream_time . Deprecated gst_segment_to_position
now, and replaced it with gst_segment_position_from_running_time.
Also added unit tests.
There exist cases where a reconfigure event was propagated from
downstream, but caps didn't change. In this case, we would
reconfigure only when the next buffer arrives. The problem is that
due to the allocation query being cached, the return query parameters
endup outdated.
In this patch we refactor the reconfigurating code into a function, and
along with reconfiguring when a new buffer comes in, we also reconfigure
when a query allocation arrives.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=753850
Explicitly keep track again whether upstream tags or parser tags
already contain bitrate information, and only force a tag update
for a bitrate if we are actually going to add the bitrate to the
taglist later. This fixes constant re-sending of the same taglist,
because upstream provided a bitrate already and we didn't add it,
so we didn't save the 'posted' bitrate, which would then in turn
again trigger the 'bitrate has changed too much, update tags'
code path. Fixes tag spam with m4a files for example.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=679768
In 0.10 there were no sticky events, and all tag events
sent would just be merged with the previously-received
tags. In 1.x we have sticky events, and the tags in the
tag event(s) should at all times carry the complete tags,
so we can't just push some tags and then just push tags
with just bitrates to update the bitrates, etc.
Instead we need to keep track of the upstream stream tags
received, of the tags set by the video decoder subclass,
and send an updated tag event with the combined tags
including our own bitrate tags (if applicable) whenever
the upstream tags, the subclass tags or any of our bitrates
change.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=679768
This is needed so that we can do proper tag handling
all around, and combine the upstream tags with the
tags set by the subclass and any extra tags the
base class may want to add.

Use gst_pad_peer_query_duration() and remove a few
unnecessary levels of indentation. Rest of code might
looks a bit questionable, but leave it as is for now.
According to the design docs:
The ACCEPT_CAPS query is not required to work recursively, it can simply
return TRUE if a subsequent CAPS event with those caps would return
success.
So make it a shallow check instead of recursivelly check downstream.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=748635
GstPad has a flag for suggesting if the accept-caps
query should use intersect instead of the default
subset caps operation to verify if the caps would be
acceptable.
basetransform currently always uses the subset check and
this patch makes it honor the flag for using intersect
if it is set.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=748635
As of now, even for stream completly inside segment, there is no
guarantied that the DTS will be inside the segment. Specifically
for H.264 with B-Frames, the first few frames often have DTS that
are before the segment.
Instead of using the sync timestamp to clip out of segment buffer,
take the duration from the start/stop provided by the sub-class, and
check if the pts and pts_end is out of segment.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=752791
gst_query_find_allocation_meta() requires the query to be
writable to work. This patch ensure avoids taking a reference
on the query, so we can now check if a certain allocation meta
is present.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=752661
This line has no purpose, clearly gst_segment_do_seek() is doing
the right job, also, having the start time (a timestamp) be that
same as time (the stream time) is quite odd.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=750783
For files which are smaller than 1.5 seconds, the duration
estimation does not happen. So the duration will always be
displayed as 0. Updating the duration on EOS when the estimation
has not happened already
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=750131
We must make the buffer writable to write its PTS and DTS, and also
reset its duration.
The behaviour is now the same as before commit c3bcbadd, except metas
might still be attached to the buffer extracted from the adapter.

POOL meta just means that this specific instance of the meta is related to a

set in the copy.
POOL meta just means that this specific instance of the meta is related to a
pool, a copy should be made when reasonable and the flag should just not be

This preserves GstMeta properly unless the subclass does special things. It's

metas as needed.

All functions that return a GstBuffer or a list of them will now copy
all GstMeta from the input buffers except for meta with GST_META_FLAG_POOLED
flag or "memory" tag.
This is similar to the existing behaviour that the caller can't assume
anything about the buffer flags, timestamps or other metadata. And it's
also the same that gst_adapter_take_buffer_fast() did before, and what
gst_adapter_take_buffer() did if part of the first buffer or the complete
first buffer was requested.

In basesink functions gst_base_sink_chain_unlocked(), below code is used to
checking if buffer is late before doing prepare call to save some effort:

late =
gst_base_sink_is_too_late (basesink, obj, rstart, rstop,
GST_CLOCK_EARLY, 0, FALSE);
if (G_UNLIKELY (late))

But this code has problem, it should calculate jitter based on current media
clock, rather than just passing 0. I found it will drop all the frames when
rewind in slow speed, such as -2X.

Otherwise we're going to set a rather arbitrary DTS of segment.start (usually

Otherwise baseparse will consider empty streams to be an error while
an empty stream is a valid scenario. With this patch, errors would
only be emitted if the parser received data but wasn't able to

Large scale skip is an optimization, and thus it is safer to
stop skipping than to continue. Clear skip on segments and
discontinuities, as these are points where it is possible that
the original idea of "bytes to skip" changes.

that bufferpools can be stopped. As the allocation query is

Don't just set the need_preroll flag to TRUE in all cases. When we

Both for the peer filter caps and the converted caps based on the peer caps.
If the peer filter caps are EMPTY, the peer caps query will also return

TRUE is 1, but every other non-zero value is also considered true. Comparing

Also normalize booleans in a few places.
Instead of checking if our outcaps are equivalent to the previous incaps, and
if that is the case not setting any caps on the pad... compare against our
previous outcaps because that's what we care about.
Fixes some cases where the outcaps became equivalent to the previous incaps,
but the previous outcaps were different and we were then sending buffers
downstream that were corresponding to the caps we forgot to set on the pad.

When the parser receives non-aligned packets it can push a buffer
and get a not-linked return while still leaving some data still to
be parsed. This remaining data will not form a complete frame and
the subclass likely returns _OK and baseparse would take that
as the return, while it the element is actually not-linked.
This patch fixes this by storing the last flow-return from a push
and using that if a parsing operation doesn't result in data being
flushed or skipped.

Currently the scan uses Boyer-moore method and its performance is good.
but, it can be optimized from an implementation of view.
The original scan code is implemented by byte array and index-based access.
In _scan_for_start_code(), the index is increasing from start to end and the
base address of the byte array is referred to as return value.
In the case, index-based access can be replaced by pointer access, which
improve the performance by removing index-related operations.
Its performace is enhanced by approximately 8% on arm-based embedded devices.
Although it seems trivial, it can affect the overall performance because the
_scan_for_start_code() function is very often called when H.264/H.265 video is
played.
In addition, the technique can apply for all architectures and it is good in
view of readability and maintainability.

Currently, if prepare() takes too much time, we skip the call to render().

They are very confusing for people, and more often than not
also just not very accurate. Seeing 'last reviewed: 2005' in
your docs is not very confidence-inspiring. Let's just remove
those comments.
We iterate the current discont group backwards and push each GOP forwards,
starting from the last one. However if the first buffer in the current
discont group is a keyframe, we will keep it around until next time,
which is far from ideal. Just push it.
This prevents situations where a first branch would get seeked and
receive a buffer before all branches got seeked, and thus collected
would get called based on EOS from the previous segment.
As a consequence, during the process of seeking, don't decrease
the eospads number when a FLUSH_STOP is received.

Store the eos event seqnum and use it when creating the
new eos event to be pushed downstream. To know if the eos
was caused by the eos events received on send_event, a
'forced_eos' flag is used to use the correct seqnum on

Useful if the application wants to check if the EOS message
was generated from its own pushed EOS or from another source
(stream really finished).

TIME segments are being ignored and a standard initialized

This seems to be a regression from one of the GstSegment/GstEvent
redesigns on the 0.10 -> 1.0 transition
It wasn't required, instead baseparse was using it to check the media
caps to identify if it was handling audio or video.
The pending_segment was removed and a checked_media boolean

A GAP event is handled as an empty buffer by sinks and they expect
to receive start up events before GAP events (like a segment).
This is important specially if there is a GAP at the beginning of
a stream (before any buffers) so that the segment event can be
pushed downstream before the GAP

pads->data is the public list. It is dynamically rebuilt at each call to
check_collected, in check_pads to be specific. When you add a pad and
collectpads have been started, it is not added to the public list.
Thus there exists a possible race where :
1) You would add a pad to collectpads while running.
2) You set collectpads to flushing before check_collected has been called again
-> the pad is not set to flushing
3) the pad starts pushing data as downstream might not be prepared, in the case
of adder it then returns FLOW_FLUSHING.
4) elements like demuxers, when they get a FLOW_FLUSHING, stop their tasks,
never to be seen again.

The seqnum of the segment after a seek should be the same of
the seek event. Downstream elements might rely on seqnums to
identify events related to a seek.
This is particularly important when a demuxer maps a TIME seek
into a BYTES seek for upstream and it needs to identify the
corresponding segment event and map it back into TIME to push
downstream, possibly using the values from the original seek
event.

If a pad is removed while a collectpads element (say adder) is in a chain
function waiting to be collected, there is a possibility that an unref happens
on a NULL pointer.

This avoids triggering plenty of extra code/methods/overhead downstream when
we can just quickly check whenever we want to set caps whether they are
identical or not

Use custom code to implement flush-stop, we can't reuse the set_flushing code
because we can't touch the live_playing flag and we need to signal the
streaming thread.
In some specific cases (like transmuxing) we want to force the element
to actually parse all incoming data even if the element deems it is not
necessary.
This property simply ignores requests from the element to enable passthrough
mode which results in processing always being enabled.

Adds a variant of the _push function that doesn't check the queue limits
before adding the new item. It is useful when pushing an element to the
queue shouldn't lock the thread.
One particular scenario is when the queue is used to serialize buffers
and events that are going to be pushed from another thread. The
dataqueue should have a limit on the amount of buffers to be stored to
avoid large memory consumption, but events can be considered to have
negligible impact on memory compared to buffers. So it is useful to be
used to push items into the queue that contain events, even though the
queue is already full, it shouldn't matter inserting an item that has
no significative size.
This scenario happens on adaptive elements (dashdemux / mssdemux) as
there is a single download thread fetching buffers and putting into the
dataqueues for the streams. This same download thread can als generate
events in some situations as caps changes, eos or a internal control
events. There can be a deadlock at preroll if the first buffer fetched
is large enough to fill the dataqueue and the download thread and the
next iteration of the download thread decides to push an event to this
same dataqueue before fetching buffers to other streams, if this push
locks, the pipeline will be stuck in preroll as no more buffers will be
downloaded.
There is a somewhat common practice in dash streams to have a single
very large buffer for audio and one for video, so this will always
happen as the download thread will have to push an EOS right after
fetching the first buffer for any stream.

Calling gst_buffer_get_size represented 2/3 of the cost of helper_find_peek
which was called whenever a typefindfunction wanted to peek at data.
We already know the size (from the GstMapInfo), so just use that.
Pass the fixed caps we're asked to accept as a filter for the caps
query, so we don't get a fully-expanded set of caps back (which we don't
need and can take a lot of time for intersection).

When we asynchronously go from READY to PLAYING, also call the
state change function so that subclasses can update their state for PLAYING.
Because the PREROLL lock is not recursive, we can't make this without
races and we must assume for now that the subclass can handle concurrent calls
to PAUSED->PLAYING and PLAYING->PAUSED. We can make this assumption because not
many elements actually do something in those state changes and the ones that
did would be broken even more without this change.

Doing it after every single create() is not very efficient and not necessary.
Especially on network file systems fstat() is not cached and causes network
traffic, making the source possibly unusable slow.

This makes sure that at least one buffer per second is rendered if buffers
are dropped before ::prepare. Without this change, at least one buffer per
second wouldn't be too late before ::prepare anymore but would be dropped
before ::render because of last_render_time being set before ::prepare
already.
This function works just like gst_data_queue_pop, but it doesn't
remove the object from the queue.
Useful when inspecting multiple GstDataQueues to decide from which
to pop the element from.

Importantly, this patch converts DTS to running time. Less importantly,
and possibly a problem for some muxers, is that it orders buffers by
DTS (if it is valid, otherwise PTS). This is generally correct, but
might be somewhat surprising to muxers.
Also note that once converted to running time, DTS can end up negative.
gst_pad_get_current_caps() on the source pad might yield NULL caps
if we're being shut down and the source pad has already been
deactivated by the other thread that's changing state. Just bail
out in that case, instead of passing NULL caps to the transform_size
function, which it might not expect.
Fixes spurious warnings in audioresample shutdown unit test.

... and tracking of DTS. Fixes cases where PTS is locked on to the
DTS of an incoming buffer with no PTS with invalid data, leading to
no outgoing PTS (since it is not allowed smaller than DTS).

Use GSIZE_TO_POINTER instead. sizeof(GType) may be larger
than sizeof(gulong) and sizeof(int), so the casts may
chop off some bits from the GType value on some architectures.
Don't retry to negotiate when we fail to negotiate but instead produce a
NOT_NEGOTIATED error. We only want to retry negotiation if the result from
gst_pad_push() returned NOT_NEGOTIATED.
When negotiation fails, mark the pad as needing a reconfigure again so
that it gets picked up again next time.

The _1_0 suffixed environment variables override the

Basetransform attempts to do passthrough mode regardless of the order of
the transform_caps method. Add a method to disable this.
This is needed for elements like capsfilter that want to transform caps
based on the order of the caps property.
The 3rd parameter of gst_base_src_new_seamless_segment in

It's not right, and we don't know what extra properties
that event might have set in future (e.g. sparseness).
This change means collectpad users need to create their
own stream-start event now. We could add a utility
function that creates a stream-start event based on
the input stream-start events.
Hacky, because the still-frame code all lives in -base, where we
can't use it - so this is a hacky duplication of -base code. Not
sure which way to fix this: Move baseparse to -base, or move still-frame
events to core?
Make the event handling more like what videodecoder does,
to ensure that all events are passed to child classes before being
placed on the pending queue or pushed onward.
We only deal in TIME format ourselves, but if the subclass can handle

Sometimes a transform filter would need the buffer pool or the memory
allocator negotiated by the base class, for example, for querying different
parameters, such as a bigger number of buffers to allocate by the buffer pool.
This patch expose a two getters accessors: one for the buffer pool and the
other for the memory allocator.
Sometimes the sources would use the buffer pool or the memory allocator for
something else than just allocating output buffers; for example, querying for
different parameters, such as a bigger number of buffers to allocate by the

other for the memory allocator.
Don't just return FALSE for seek events with negative rates when
operating in push mode. An upstream demuxer may support this just
fine, so if we're not operating in pull mode always check upstream
first if it can handle the seek event. This fixes reverse playback
where the upstream demuxer supports it (e.g. with qtdemux). The
same code would work fine in 0.10, because baseparse will just
call the default pad event handler if FALSE was returned from the
baseparse event handler, and the pad event handler will just
forward it upstream. In 0.11 the baseclass or subclass is
responsible for chaining up to the parent class or forwarding the
event upstream in any case.
Disable reverse playback in pull mode for now, there seems to
be something going wrong with the segment configuration in that
case.
This specifies if a given taglist applies to the complete
medium or only this specific stream. By default a taglist
has a stream scope.

Define a 0 and -1 step amount. They used to almost do the same thing but now, 0

Move code that checks for upstream seekability and all that to
the right place, otherwise it will never be done for formats
that have headers such as FLAC, as handle_and_push frame will
be called the first time only after headers have been processed
(and framecount is > 0). This then makes us report that we
can't seek, which disables the seek bar in totem.
