This option allows the videomixer2 element to output a valid alpha
channel when the inputs contain a valid alpha channel. This allows
mixing to occur in multiple stages serially.
The following pipeline shows an example of such a pipeline:
gst-launch videotestsrc background-color=0x000000 pattern=ball ! video/x-raw-yuv,format=\(fourcc\)AYUV ! videomixer2 background=transparent name=mix1 ! videomixer2 name=mix2 ! ffmpegcolorspace ! autovideosink videotestsrc ! video/x-raw-yuv,format=\(fourcc\)AYUV ! mix2.
The first videotestsrc in this pipeline creates a moving ball on a
transparent background. It is then passed to the first videomixer2.
Previously, this videomixer2 would have forced the alpha channel to
1.0 and given a background of checker, black, or white to the
stream. With this patch, however, you can now specify the background
as transparent, and the alpha channel of the input will be
preserved. This allows for further mixing downstream, as is shown in
the above pipeline where the a second videomixer2 is used to mix in a
background of an smpte videotestsrc. So the result is a ball hovering
over the smpte test source. This could, of course, have been
accomplished with a single mixer element, but staged mixing is useful
when it is not convenient to mix all video at once (e.g. a pipeline
where a foreground and background bin exist and are mixed at the final
output, but the foreground bin needs an internal mixer to create
transitions between clips).

Pulsesink was recently changed to defer uncorking until there is data
to write. This condition will however never occur when EOS in being
rendered (since that marks the end of data). Changing to PAUSED state
while EOS is being waited on results in a hang: pausing corks the
stream, which will never be undone since there is no more data when
going back to PLAYING. If pulsesink is the clock provider, deadlock
ensues since time doesn't continue in corked state and the clock id
for EOS wait never fires.
Fixes#645961.
Previously the chain function was working sample frame based. In each cycle it
was checking if it is time to run a fft or if it is time to send a message.
Now we changed the data transform functions to work on a block of data and
calculate the max length until either {end-of-data, do-fft, do-msg}. This allows
us also to avoid the duplicated code for the single and multi-channel case (as
the transformers have the same signature now).
Even though we wrap around the accumulated second, we still need to add the
error in the same cycle. Increase the todo in the same conditional as afterwards
the accumulated error will be below one second.
AUTHOR only existed in an old version of the spec and ARTIST is
the new replacement for this. We are still reading both to still
be compatible with old files.
Fixes bug #644875.
If we did not know how many frames to expect, then we get an unexpected
end of stream when trying to decode more frames that are there, if there
are leftover bits to pad to the next byte
Looking at the remaining bits in the bitstream after decoding a
single frame can't be used as loop condition. The remaining
bits might not give a complete frame and the speex decoder will
then output nothing but access uninitialized memory, which leads
to valgrind warnings.
Fixes bug #644669.
Jack audio src/sink elements recently got moved from bad and should be excluded
from the test (like the other device specific source and sinks).
Fixes#644288
Before it was possible that we run an extra fft when the time for sending a new
message is due. Only do this if we have not run the fft for the interval at all.
