When switching to a new chain it might be that this new chain

on the stream.

If the sink has properties named volume and mute, we have no idea about their
meaning. The streamvolume interface standardizes the meaning.
In the case of osxaudiosink for example, the current volume property has a
range of 0.0 to 1.0, but we need 0.0 to 10.0 or similar. Also osxaudiosink
has no mute property. As such, the volume element should be used here instead.

When a stream has a variable framerate, videorate calculates it and
forces it on the output caps. However, the code in _transform_caps()
currently also does that if the transform is going in the opposite
direction (GST_PAD_SRC), so during a renegotiation it tries to force
upstream to use the calculated framerate and it fails.

In case upstream does not provide videorate with framerate information,
it will detect the current framerate from the buffer it received,
but if downstream forces the use of variable framerate (most probably
through the use of a caps filter with framerate = 0 / 1), videorate will
respect that.
And add some unit tests
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=734424
In the case the framerate is variable (represented by framerate=0/1),
we currently end up loop pushing the first buffer and then recompute
diff1 and diff2 without updating the videorate->next_ts at all
leading to infinitely looping pushing that first buffer.
In the case of variable framerate, we should just compute the next_ts
as previous_pts + previous_duration.

If a new pad is added after playbin has been put to READY/NULL it
should ignore new pads as it is shutting down.
This can happen when the pipeline fails to preroll (is still in READY)
and the user gives up on waiting or an error that doesn't reach
the demuxer occurs (on some event handling) and it will continue to
work and exposing pads while playbin has been put to NULL.
Without this check an input-selector is created and set to PAUSED
state, preventing playbin from properly shutting down in case it
has data blocked inside it.
audio_convert_convert unpacks to default format (signed) before calling
quantize, and the unsigned variants were equivalent to signed anyway,
so we just get rid of them.
Since range size is always 2^n, we can simply use modulo (implemented
with a bitmask).
The previous implementation used 64-bit integer division, which is
done in software on ARMv7. Although the divisor was constant, the
division could not be transformed into "multiplication by magic number"
since the dividend was 64-bit.
The now-unused and not-so-fast gst_fast_random_(u)int32_range functions
were removed.
Also, implementing bug fixes:
1) ADD_DITHER_TPDF_HF_I no longer discards bias.

{ bias - dither, bias + dither }
while TPDF's noise ranged:
{ bias/2 - dither/2, bias/2 + dither/2 - 1 } +
{ bias/2 - dither/2, bias/2 + dither/2 - 1 } =
{ bias - dither, bias + dither - 2 }

A later commit will introduce a new socketsrc element which will similarly

send and receive file-descriptions in ancillary data, the first step to

* Don't bother polling, just do a blocking read, the `GCancellable` will
take care of unlocking. This should also be faster on MS Windows where
the GIO documentation for `g_socket_get_available_bytes` states: "Note
that on Windows, this function is rather inefficient in the UDP case".
* Implement `GstPushSrc.fill` rather than `GstPushSrc.create`. This means
that we will be using the downstream allocator which may be more
efficient. It also means that socketsrc is likely to respect its
"blocksize" property (assuming that there is enough data available).

`socketsrc` can be considered a source counterpart to `multisocketsink`.
It can be considered a generalization of `tcpclientsrc` and
`tcpserversrc`: it contains all the logic required to communicate over
the socket but none of the logic for creating the sockets/establishing
the connection in the first place, allowing the user to accomplish this
externally in whatever manner they wish making it applicable to other
types of sockets besides TCP.
This commit essentially copies the implementation directly from
tcpserversrc. Later patches will tidy the implementation up and
re-implement `tcpclientsrc` and `tcpserversrc` in terms of `socketsrc`.

This is a preparatory step for adding support to multisocketsink for
sending file descriptors, where a GstBuffer may be made up of several

Otherwise if there are multiple parsers we would most likely break negotiation

If caps on a newly added pad are NULL, analyze_new_pad will try to
acquire the chain lock to add a probe to the pad so the chain can
be built later. This comes from the streaming thread, in response
to headers or other buffers causing this pad to be added, so the
stream lock is taken.
Meanwhile, another thread might be destroying the chain from a
downward state change. This will cause the chain to be freed with
the chain lock taken, and some elements are set to NULL here, which
can include the parser. This causes pad deactivation, which tries
to take the element's pad's stream lock, deadlocking.
Fix this by keeping track of which elements need setting to NULL,
and only do this after the chain lock is released. Only the chain
manipulation needs to be locked, not the elements' state changes.

There was a deadlock between a thread changing decodebin/demuxer
state from PAUSED to READY, and another thread pushing data
when starting.
From the stack trace at
https://bug741355.bugzilla-attachments.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=292471,
I deduce the following is happening, though I did not reproduce the
problem so I'm not sure this patch fixes it.
The streaming thread (thread 2 in that stack trace) takes the demuxer's
sink pad's stream lock in gst_ogg_demux_perform_seek_pull and will
activate a new chain. This ends up causing the expose lock being taken
in _pad_added_cb in decodebin.
Meanwhile, a state changed is triggered on thread 1, which takes the
expose lock in decodebin in gst_decode_bin_change_state, then frees
the previous chain, which ends up calling gst_pad_stop_task on the
demuxer's task, which in turn takes the demuxer's sink pad's stream
lock, deadlocking as both threads are now waiting for each other.

There was a race where that demuxer was pushing a caps and later a buffer

when downsampling, the output buffer can be filled before all the input
samples are consumed. this is correct: when downsampling, several input
samples are needed for each output sample, so when only a small number of
input samples are available the number of output samples produced can be 0.
the resampler, however, was discarding those extra input samples instead of
clocking them into its filter history for the next iteration. this patch
fixes this by removing the check that the output buffer is full. the code
now always loops until all input samples are consumed, and relies on the
calling code to have provided a suitably sized location for the output.

ensure that this is the case.

otherwise we're going to
a) start Parser/Converter before they are linked to their capsfilter,
breaking their negotiation of a proper stream format
b) start demuxers without having connected to their pad-added signals. We
miss pads and in the worst case don't link any pads at all
... and if this fails for whatever reason we skip the element and instead
try with the next element. This allows us to handle elements that fail
when setting caps on them by just skipping to the next alternative element.
They might fail to go to PAUSED, and when connecting them further
we might already expose their srcpads on decodebin if we're unlucky.
This prevents us to handle failures going to PAUSED gracefully.
If the caps query returned us fixed caps this doesn't mean yet
that these caps are actually complete (fields might be missing).
It allows to do us some decisions, but the selection of the next
element should be delayed as only complete caps allow proper selection
of the next element.
Otherwise we might try to continue autoplugging e.g. for a specific
stream-format although the parser could convert to something else, thus giving
us potentially less options for decoders.
We can't convert to ANY capsfeatures, they are only there so that we
can passthrough whatever downstream can support... but we definitely
don't want to return them to upstream.
Canceling the accept/select happens when the source is shut down. This is
not an error and the GST_FLOW_ERROR causes problems when only part of the
pipeline is shut down.

When playing RTSP streams there will be one decodebin per stream. If some of
them fail because of a missing plugin we should not fail completely but play
the supported streams at least.

Aggregate buffering messages to only post the lower value
to avoid setting pipeline to playing while any multiqueue
is still buffering.
There are 3 scenarios where the entries should be removed from
the list:
1) When decodebin is set to READY
2) When an element posts a 100% buffering (already implemented)
3) When a multiqueue is removed from decodebin.
For item 3 we don't need to handle it because this should only
happen when either 1 is hapenning or when it is playing a
chained file, for which number 2 should have happened for the
previous stream to finish

Otherwise we might end up inside the callback without having stored
the probe id... then try to remove that probe (not!) from the callback
and wait forever for the pad to unblock.
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.
It was already checked in an early out, and as it's only
incremented for at most the size of the passed buffer, it
can only become NULL in an address wraparound.
While there, don't cast away const on a pointer.
