The size field is used by subclasses to store the total allocated size of the
memory for this miniobject. Because miniobject doesn't really do anything with
this field we can move it to the subclasses.
Add the running-time of the buffer that caused the async operation to complete
to the async-done message.
Update bin to handle the new async-done message.
Add a new message to reset the pipeline running_time. Currently reseting the
pipeline can only be requested in the async_done message which means that the
pipeline needs to be prerolled. It is better to move this to a separate message.
Make an _init method where the parent mini-object and other fields are
initialized.
Check that the passed structure doesn't already have a parent.
Use the _new_custom () constructors
We introduced our own when GLib didn't want to add a GType
for GError. But now that there is one, we can use GLib's
unconditionally and remove our version.
Remove gst_mini_object_register() and add a GST_DEFINE_MINI_OBJECT macro to
define a _get_type() function for the boxed miniobject.
Remove a bunch of custom _get_type() functions and replace them with the
miniobject macro.
Rename some _init method to _priv_*_initialize() like the rest of them.
Inspired by patch from Johan Dahlin and see bug #657603
Don't mix messages and pads and tags.
Make the sink post tag messages when a tag event is received.
Since tags are sticky on pads now, they can be retrieved from there
when needed.
Move the flag to indicate that a new_base_time should be distributed to the
pipeline, from the async_start to the async_done message. This would allow us to
decide when to reset the pipeline time based on other reasons than the
FLUSH_START event.
The main goal eventually is to make the FLUSH events not reset time at all but
reset the time based on the first buffer or segment that prerolls the pipeline
again.
The structure_change message was originally emitted on source pads and
then recently changed to be sink pads. This causes a failure in the
gst-python testsuite. Disable the restriction so that the published
behaviour is still allowed.
Post the structure change messages on the sinkpads of the elements. This allows
us to catch unlinked pads earlier without ending up with inconsistent element
degrees.
