When parsing interlaced video streams, ignoring incoming DTS could
cause the parser to end up with PTS < DTS output buffers, for example
when increasing next_dts using the duration of the last pushed
buffer.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/681>
e.g. h264parse ! video/x-h264,stream-format=avc receives the following:
- caps: video/x-raw,stream-format=byte-stream
- gap event: baseparse tries to choose some default caps but would
override the downstream chosen caps field with upstreams value.

Even when pulling a new 64KB buffer from upstream, don't return
more data than was asked for in the pull_range() method and then
return less later, as that confused subclasses like h264parse.
Add a unit test that when a subclass asks for more data, it always
receives a larger buffer on the next iteration, never less.
Fixes https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/issues/530
When running in pull mode (for e.g. mp3 reading),
baseparse currently reads 64KB from upstream, then mp3parse
consumes typically around 417/418 bytes of it. Then
on the next loop, it will read a full fresh 64KB again,
which is a big waste.
Fix the read loop to use the available cache buffer first
before going for more data, until the cache drops to < 1KB.

When we do not have any information about DTSs we shouldn't try to make
them up, moreover after seeking `segment->start` has nothing to do with
the next buffer timing (and is probably after the actual buffer timestamp)
and since, since fa8312472f
we do:
```
if (buffer->dts > buffer->dts)
buffer->pts = buffer->dts
```
we end up setting `buffer->pts = segment->start` which is plain
broken and leads to downstream decoder accept the first buffer
as it will be inside the segment (its pts==segment->start) which
basically means accurate seeking behaves mostly the same way as
keyframe seeks.
Fixes https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/issues/492
We were checking to make sure the buffer's DTS wouldn't be after its
PTS. However, the check would also trigger when DTS is NONE, which is
e.g. in the case of some broken cameras.
Fixes#470
If, for example, we are accumulating rounding errors from the buffer
duration when calculating the PTS/DTS, it can happen that the buffer
thinks it should be presented before it's decoded. In that case we just
clamp the DTS.
* Making sure that `static inline` function are in the GIR (by first
defining them, and make sure to mark as skiped)
* Do not try to link to unexisting symbols
* Also generate GIR information about gst_tracers
baseparse internally uses a 64kb buffer for pulling data from upstream.
If a 64kb pull is failing with a short read, it would previously pull
again the requested size.
Doing so is not only inefficient but also seems to cause problems with
some elements (rawvideoparse) where the second pull would fail with EOS.
Short reads are only allowed in GStreamer at EOS.
Closes https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/issues/294
The avg_bitrate is an unsigned int, so the gst_util_uin64_scale() function can't
be used for it, as it expects signed integers for the fraction parts arguments.

We need all relevant events of a segment to have consistent seqnum:
* GST_EVENT_SEGMENT
* GST_EVENT_EOS
If we are push-based and create a new segment, use the same seqnum
as the upstream event.
If we are pull-based, use the seqnum of that newly created segment
event everywhere
We would constantly re-post the taglist because
posted_avg_rate only gets set to avg_bitrate if
parse->priv->post_avg_bitrate is true, so if it's
false the posted rate will always differ from the
current average rate and we'd queue an update,
which leads to us spamming downstream and the
application with taglist updates.
Fix this by only queuing an update if the average
rate will actually be posted.
These taglists updates could cause expensive
operations on the application side, e.g. in Totem.

If parsing returns a non-OK flow return in the middle
of processing an input buffer, don't overwrite that
if a later return is OK again - the subclass might
return not-linked in the middle, and then discard
subsequent data without pushing while returning OK.
A later success doesn't invalidate the earlier failure,
but we should continue processing after not-linked, so
as to keep parse state consistent.

Otherwise when seeking/looping to the start when reaching the end,
the sink waits for the duration of the stream. So the user hears
nothing for the duration of the stream before it actually loop again.
See example attached to the bug for that.
Existing test:
gst-plugins-good/tests/icles/test-segment-seeks foo.flac
Without the patch the user hears a crack/cut at each seek.

Check the correct segment format value.
parse->segment.format is the format we're outputting in,
not the upstream format. Use parse->priv->upstream_format instead,
and make sure it's set in pull mode.
If the parser is not parsing a raw elementary stream, restrict
the position, duration and conversion query replies to
things we can sensibly answer about - especially don't do
random conversions to/from bytes.
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.

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.
Fixes assertions in rawvideoparse on EOS after not-negotiated with
fakesrc sizetype=random ! queue ! rawvideoparse format=rgb ! appsink caps=video/x-raw,format=I420

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.

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.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765260
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.

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.
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%.

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.
