Due to the may_cancel flag in GstRTSPConnection, receiving might not get
cancelled when supposed to. In this case, gst_rtsp_src_receive_response
will have to wait until timeout instead but if busy receiving RTP
data, this timeout will never occur.
With this patch, gst_rtsp_src_receive_response returns GST_RTSP_EINTR
if flushing is set to TRUE instead of continuing to receive.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gst-plugins-good/-/merge_requests/831>
Comparing gst_rtspsrc_loop_interleaved and gst_rtspsrc_loop_udp, and investigating on timeout issues, it sounds like a piece of code has been originally copied from udp to the interleaved one. The timeout variable is never used inside the interleaved one. No side effect has been seen in the removed function calls.
The debug message removed is pointless as the timeout used is "src->tcp_timeout" that is fixed.
The presence of the two timeout drove my team in investigating if the reference to the tcp_timeout was correct (it is). Hence we removed the misleading reference to the local timeout variable.
When the server replies with a range "now-", it is presumed to
be a "live" stream and we should request a similar range.
This was the case prior to my refactoring to make use of
gst_rtsp_range_to_string in 5f1a732bc7,
this commit restores the behaviour for that case.
gstrtspsrc uses a queue, set_get_param_q, to store set param and get
param requests. The requests are put on the queue by calling
get_parameters() and set_parameter(). A thread which executs in
gst_rtspsrc_thread() then pops requests from the queue and processes
them. The crash occured because the queue became empty and a NULL
request object was then used. The reason that the queue became empty
is that it was popped even when the thread was NOT processing a get
parameter or set parameter command. The fix is to make sure that the
queue is ONLY popped when the command being processed is a set
parameter or get parameter command.
By passing `NULL` to `g_signal_new` instead of a marshaller, GLib will
actually internally optimize the signal (if the marshaller is available
in GLib itself) by also setting the valist marshaller. This makes the
signal emission a bit more performant than the regular marshalling,
which still needs to box into `GValue` and call libffi in case of a
generic marshaller.
Note that for custom marshallers, one would use
`g_signal_set_va_marshaller()` with the valist marshaller instead.
The output segment is only used in ONVIF mode.
The previous behaviour was to output a segment computed from
the Range response sent by the server.
In ONVIF mode, servers will start serving from the appropriate
synchronization point (keyframe), and the Range in response will
start at that position.
This means rtspsrc can now perform truly accurate seeks in that
mode, by clipping the output segment to the values requested in
the seek. The decoder will then discard out of segment buffers
and playback will start without artefacts at the exact requested
position, similar to the behaviour of a demuxer when an accurate
seek is requested.
This is useful to support the ONVIF case: when is-live is set to
FALSE and onvif-rate-control is no, the client can control the
rate of delivery and arrange for the server to block and still
keep sending when unblocked, without requiring back and forth
PAUSE / PLAY requests. This enables, amongst other things, fast
frame stepping on the client side.
When is-live is FALSE, we don't use a manager at all. This case
was actually already pretty well handled by the current code. The
standard manager, rtpbin, is simply no longer needed in this case.
Applications can instantiate a downloadbuffer after rtspsrc if
needed.
Refactor the code for parsing and generating the Range, taking
advantage of existing API in GstRtspTimeRange.
Only use the TCP protocol in that mode, as per the specification.
Generate an accurate segment when in that mode, and signal to the
depayloader that it should not generate its own segment, through
the "onvif-mode" field in the caps, see
<https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gst-plugins-base/merge_requests/328>
for more information.

The second udpsrc (rtcp) might not have seen the segment event if it was
not enabled or if rtcp is not available on the server. So if the
application tries to send an EOS event it will try to set an invalid
seqnum to the event.
This can happen in various error cases that could happen between the
creation of the element in question and the adding to the rtspsrc.
It causes an ugly critical warning right now but is otherwise harmless.
The documentation of "port-range" implies that passing NULL should be
valid, but currently it is not. Without this check, the sscanf() call
will crash.
This causes rtspsrc to send a teardown and wait on
PAUSED->READY transition, with a configurable delay.
Otherwise, typically teardown never gets sent in
playbin / uridecodebin where the transition back to NULL
happens too quickly.
The timeout is set to 100ms default.

This reverts commit af273b4de9.
While RFC 3264 (SDP) says that sendonly/recvonly are from the point of view of
the requester, the actual RTSP RFCs (RFC 2326 / 7826) disagree and say
the opposite, just like the ONVIF standard.
Let's follow those RFCs as we're doing RTSP here, and add a property at
a later time if needed to switch to the SDP RFC behaviour.

This works around a bug in various ONVIF cameras that implement the
attributes the wrong way around. They still won't work with a
backchannel but at least normal playback will work for the time being.
It restores pre-1.14 behaviour where we would fail to preroll on any SDP
that lists a recvonly stream. For 1.16 a better solution should be
found.
The problem here is that the ONVIF spec has the meaning of the two
attributes the wrong way around in the examples, compared to RFC4566.
