_set_caps only gets called when the buffer is actually pushed, so there
is a reasonably big window between when the initial caps are retrieved
and when the caps are set on our src pad. So we can't assume the not
having negotiated caps on our src pad means _get_caps still has to be
called.
Instead simply always suggest the new caps on buffer_alloc.
Add a vmethod to handle the pad query.
Install a default handler for the pad query.
Add a vmethod to setup the allocation properties.
Use the new query function in filesink
Implement the sink event handling like the src event handler. Make the default
implementation parse and forward the event. This makes it possible to actually
return an error value from the event handler.
Remove the requirement to have to return a ref to the input buffer when in
passthrough mode. This saves a few ref/unref cycles and fixes another 0.11
FIXME.
Remove the caps and size from the prepare_output_buffer function. with
bufferpools and capsnego done differently, we don't need this in most cases and
if we do, we can simply use the transform_size function and get the caps from
the srcpad.
Add an index to gst_buffer_take_memory() so that we can also insert memory at a
certain offset. This is mostly interesting to prepend a header memory block to
the buffer.
Make a new method to allocate a buffer + memory that takes the allocator and the
alignment as parameters. Provide a macro for the old method but prefer to use
the new method to encourage plugins to negotiate the allocator properly.
Add a new fill virtual method to basesrc. The purpose of this method is to fill
a provided buffer with data.
Add a default implementation of the create method that allocates a buffer and
calls the fill method on it. This would allow the base class to implement
bufferpool and allocator negotiation on behalf of the subclasses.
Fix the blocksize property.
Make filesrc use the new fill method.
Always forward all events in the default handler. Previously it used to not
forward caps events by default. It makes more sense to forward the caps events,
if the element is interested in the caps, it will implement an event handler to
retrieve the caps and then it can decide to forward or not. If the element has
no event handler, it probably just doesn't care about caps and it probably is
also not going to modify the data in a way that needs a caps change.
See #651514 for details. It's apparently impossible to write code
that avoids both type punning warnings with old g_atomic headers and
assertions in the new. Thus, macros and a version check.
When releasing the request pad, first remove it from the element and then
deactivate it. If we do it the other way around, a gst_pad_push on the element
might return wrong-state before we had a chance to detect the removed pad in the
chain function.
This makes sure that SEEK events are sent to all upstream elements, which is
required if different streams are completely distinct pipeline parts. Also this
allows QoS to be done on deselected streams, flushes to be handled correctly,
etc.
The switch action signal with the stop and start running times
is not necessary anymore. Closing of segments is not necessary
and adjusting the start running time of a segment can later be
done with new GstPad API.
This reverts commit cf4fbc005c.
This change did not improve the situation for bindings because
queries are usually created, then directly passed to a function
and not stored elsewhere, and the writability problem with
miniobjects usually happens with buffers or caps instead.
Improve GstSegment, rename some fields. The idea is to have the GstSegment
structure represent the timing structure of the buffers as they are generated by
the source or demuxer element.
gst_segment_set_seek() -> gst_segment_do_seek()
Rename the NEWSEGMENT event to SEGMENT.
Make parsing of the SEGMENT event into a GstSegment structure.
Pass a GstSegment structure when making a new SEGMENT event. This allows us to
pass the timing info directly to the next element. No accumulation is needed in
the receiving element, all the info is inside the element.
Remove gst_segment_set_newsegment(): This function as used to accumulate
segments received from upstream, which is now not needed anymore because the
segment event contains the complete timing information.
This reverts commit 9ef1346b1f.
Way to much for one commit and I'm not sure we want to get rid of the pad caps
just like that. It's nice to have the buffer and its type in onw nice bundle
without having to drag the complete context with it.
Remove pad_alloc and all references. This can now be done more efficiently and
more flexible with the ALLOCATION query and the bufferpool objects. There is no
reverse negotiation yet but that will be done with an event later.
1) We need to lock and get a strong ref to the parent, if still there.
2) If it has gone away, we need to handle that gracefully.
This is necessary in order to safely modify a running pipeline. Has been
observed when a streaming thread is doing a buffer_alloc() while an
application thread sends an event on a pad further downstream, and from
within a pad probe (holding STREAM_LOCK) carries out the pipeline plumbing
while the streaming thread has its buffer_alloc() in progress.
Remove the android/ top dir
Fixe the Makefile.am to be androgenized
To build gstreamer for android we are now using androgenizer which generates the needed Android.mk files.
Androgenizer can be found here: http://git.collabora.co.uk/?p=user/derek/androgenizer.git
Use the string provided by the caller for the sinkpad name
if possible. Note that all sanity checking for this name
is already done in GstElement.
Fixes Bug #645931
