This allows removing structures from caps without them being freed. Helpful when
plugins need to move around structures without having to do an expensive structure
copy.

This makes it possible to easily get a *:5 debug log without all
the refcounting noise, and drastically reduces the number of lines
output for a normal log (46m to 28m for a 20min video). The full log
including refcounting information can still be gotten using *:7.
Fixes#620460.
Adds 3 new geo location tags involving direction and
movement of capture. Those are:
API: GST_TAG_GEO_LOCATION_CAPTURE_DIRECTION
API: GST_TAG_GEO_LOCATION_MOVEMENT_DIRECTION
API: GST_TAG_GEO_LOCATION_MOVEMENT_SPEED
Fixes#617223
Adds those new tags to describe the device manufacturer and
model used to create medias.
API: GST_TAG_DEVICE_MANUFACTURER
API: GST_TAG_DEVICE_MODEL
Fixes#615941
Adds a new tag for user favorite media rating.
User rating informs how much (from 0 to 100) a user
'likes' a media.
Having an percent uint range for this is easy to map into other scales,
like some players that allow users to attribute 'stars' to its
media.
API: GST_TAG_USER_RATING
Fixes#520697
Adds that warning to configure.ac
Includes a tiny change of the GST_BOILERPLATE_FULL() macro:
The get_type() function is no longer declared before being defined.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=611692
The only reason these two functions are still around is that at some
point in the past they were in a public header, so we can't really
remove them now even though they should have been private all along
(and aren't really particularly useful). Since these are just empty
stubs now that do nothing but return FALSE and will be removed in
0.11 anyway, we may just as well deprecate them formally.
Adds the following new tags:
GST_TAG_SHOW_NAME
GST_TAG_SHOW_SORTNAME
GST_TAG_SHOW_EPISODE_NUMBER
GST_TAG_SHOW_SEASON_NUMBER
GST_TAG_LYRICS
GST_TAG_COMPOSER_SORTNAME
GST_TAG_GROUPING
Fixes#599759
gst_event_new_sink_message()
gst_event_parse_sink_message()
This event is used for sending a GstMessage downstream and synchronized
with the stream, to be posted by the sink once it reaches the sink.
Fixes bug #602275.
gst_util_greatest_common_divisor()
gst_util_double_to_fraction()
gst_util_fraction_to_double()
Using these instead of going over GValue has much lower overhead.
Also add float<->fraction transform functions for GValue.
This returns the internal feature list cookie, which changes every
time a feature is added or removed. This can be used by elements
to check if they should update their cached feature lists.
This patch adds gst_caps_set_value() and allows gst_caps_set_simple() to
work on non-simple caps. See the API documentation for the functions
about what they do.
The intention of these changes is to ease working with caps in caps
transform functions. An example for this would be ffmpegcolorspace,
where the caps transform function could be changed to look roughly like
this (pseudocode ahead):
result = gst_caps_copy (template_caps);
value = gst_structure_get_value (gst_caps_get_structure (caps, 0),
"widh");
gst_caps_set_value (result, value);
/* same for height, framerate and par */
return caps;
which is much cleaner and easier to understand than the current code.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=597690
In most places in core and baseclasses we just need the caps to do caps-
intersections. In that case ref'ed caps are enough (no need to copy).
This patch also switches the code to use the new functions.
API: gst_pad_get_caps_refed(), gst_pad_peer_get_caps_refed()
Often we don't need the result of the intersection. Add a variant that only
tries to intersect. It can break out earlier and does less GValue copying.
API: gst_caps_can_intersect()
Add a new macro GST_DEBUG_CATEGORY_GET to get a log category by name. This
allows plugins to use e.g. core categories like PERFORMANCE or CLOCK.
API: GST_DEBUG_CATEGORY_GET
Add new method to iterate a bufferlist without having to allocate an iterator.
Add convenience method for getting an item from the list based on the group and
index.
Remove redundant _do_data callback and method.
Update unit-tests and add some more for the new methods.
Add functions to create a new tag list and set tags in one go, which
is nice for use in combination with functions that take ownership of
the taglist, such as gst_event_new_tag() or gst_element_found_tags().
API: add gst_tag_list_new_full()
API: add gst_tag_list_new_full_valist()
Add a bunch of vararg getter convenience functions to complement
the vararg setter functions, and a basic unit test. Fixes#534208.
API: gst_structure_get()
API: gst_structure_id_get()
API: gst_structure_get_valist()
API: gst_structure_id_get_valist()
Add gst_segment_to_position() that converts a running_time to a position in the
segment. A faulty variant of this function is currently used in inputselector
but we'll need it for frame stepping too.
API: GstSegment::gst_segment_to_position()
Add new STEP event and methods for creating/parsing the event
Update design docs.
Add new STEP_DONE message and method to create/parse.
API: GstEvent::gst_event_new_step()
API: GstEvent::gst_event_parse_step()
API: GstMessage::gst_message_new_step_done()
API: GstMessage::gst_message_parse_step_done()
Add a start_time field and some methods. The start_time will contain the
running_time of when the element last went to paused. This time can be user to
report the position in PAUSED but also to do more correct clipping and
stepping later.
Add a gst_element_lost_state_full() with an extra argument to control
distribution of a new base_time. We will need this for flushing step
operations.
API: GstElement::gst_element_lost_state_full()
Reuse buffer code for bufferlists. Not sure if this measurably impacts performance
for the simple buffer case, if it does after doing some benchmarks, we can
decouple it later.
Fixes#572285
Remove the static function set on the TaskPool before _prepare() is called and
allow for assigning a function to a Task when we _push().
Update the examples
Two new log levels to dump FIXMEs into the log and to log data
in form of a hex dump (#578114).

Yes, 'codec' isn't exactly the best word, but let's be consistent with AUDIO_CODEC
and VIDEO_CODEC (which may be 'raw' formats as well after all). Prerequisite for
bug #576552.
This will be mostly useful in all elements that have some kind of internal
seek/index table. Currently almost all of them (or even all of them)
are using a linear search although the used array is already sorted,
wasting some CPU time without good reason.
Fixes bug #573623.
Add a GST_MESSAGE_REQUEST_STATE that can be posted by element when they would
like to have the application change the state of the pipeline. the primary use
case is to pause the pipeline when an audio mixer is mixing a higher priority
stream but it can also be used for other purposes.
Add some docs and a unit test.
Implement the REQUEST_STATE message in gst-launch.
API: gst_message_new_request_state()
API: gst_message_parse_request_state()
API: GST_MESSAGE_REQUEST_STATE
This tag will list a homepage for the media,
i.e. the artist's or movie's homepage.
This is different to GST_TAG_LOCATION as the latter
lists the original location of the media.
Fixes bug #571227.
Add a property to select the clock type, currently REALTIME and MONOTONIC when
posix timers are available.
Implement the systemclock with GstPoll instead of GCond. This allows us to
schedule timeouts with nanosecond precission on newer kernels and with ppoll
support. It's also resilient to changes to the systemclock because of NTP or
similar.
Add a special timer mode in GstPoll that makes it only use the control socket
with a timeout to schedule timeouts. Also add a pair of methods to wakeup the
timeout thread.
API: GstPoll::gst_poll_new_timer()
API: GstPoll::gst_poll_write_control()
API: GstPoll::gst_poll_read_control()

Remove GST_DISABLE_(ENUMTYPES|INDEX|URI) everywhere.
Disabling the indexers and URI handler code will only reduce the
required amount of memory by a very small amount but on the other hand
requires much more maintaince work. Apart from that many places of
code are broken when disabling them.
Disabling the enum types doesn't reduce the required amount of memory
by more than a few bytes and makes it hard to fix bugs like #539772,
i.e. use the enums as GObject properties.
