It was a bit too clever, and didn't really work as an API,
confusing people to no end. Better implement specific methods
whether an interface is usable/available/ready on the interface
itself, or even add GError arguments, rather than try to have
per-instance interfaces.
Add an index to gst_buffer_take_memory() so that we can also insert memory at a
certain offset. This is mostly interesting to prepend a header memory block to
the buffer.
Add a boolean to the flush_stop event to make it possible to implement flushes
that don't reset_time.
Make basesink post async_done with the reset_time property from the flush stop
event.
Fix some unit tests
Require the memory implementations to implement a share operation. This allows
us to remove the fallback share implementation which uses a different allocator
implementation and complicates things too much.
Update design doc a bit.
See #651514 for details. It's apparently impossible to write code
that avoids both type punning warnings with old g_atomic headers and
assertions in the new. Thus, macros and a version check.
Keep track of installed number of probes to shortcut emission.
Allow NULL callbacks, this is useful for blocking probes.
Improve probe selection based on the mask, an empty mask for the data or the
scheduling flags equals that all probes match.
Add some more debug info.
Don't check the flushing flag in the probe callback handler, this needs to be
done before calling the handler.
Fix blocking probes.
Fix unit tests
Make the PadBlock callback take a GstBlockType parameter to handle the different
kind of stages in the pad block. This provides for more backwards compatibility
in the pad block API.
Separate blocking and unblocking into different methods, only blocking can do a
callback, unblock is always immediately. Also removed synchronous blocking, it
can always be implemented with a callback.
Make pad block call the callback as soon as the pad is not in use. This makes it
possible to make sure that when the callback is called, no activity is happening
on the pad and that no activity will ever happen until the pad is unblocked
again. This makes pad blocking work when there is no dataflow or after EOS and
greatly helps dynamic pipelines.
Move the probe handling right where we wait on the pad block. The two are
related but not the same and the probe can eventually influence the pad
blocking as we'll se later.
Fix up some broken unit tests or tests that fail with the new behaviour.
..and as a result gst_caps_is_equal() and others.
This now only checks if for every subset structure there is
a superset structure in the superset caps. Previously we were
subtracting one from another, creating completely new caps
and then even simplified them.
The new implemention now is about 1.27 times faster and doesn't
break the -base unit tests are anything anymore.
Change the sticky event array so that it contains a pending and an active event.
Events on the sinkpad are copied to the pending array and after the eventfunc
returned TRUE, moved to the active event. This allows us to queue new events
like when we do per-pad offsets without removing the currently active event.
Remove the active argument from the gst_pad_get_sticky_event() method, the
pending events are not something we want to expose.
Update the design docs with some clear rules for how sticky events are
handled.
Reimplement the sticky tags, use a small structure to hold the event and its
current state (active or inactive).
Events on sinkpads only become active when the event function returned success
for the event.
When linking, only update events that are different.
Avoid making a copy of the event array, use the object lock to protect the event
array and release it only to call the event function. This will need to check
if something changed, later.
Disable a test in the unit test, it can't work yet.
This reverts commit cf4fbc005c.
This change did not improve the situation for bindings because
queries are usually created, then directly passed to a function
and not stored elsewhere, and the writability problem with
miniobjects usually happens with buffers or caps instead.
Improve GstSegment, rename some fields. The idea is to have the GstSegment
structure represent the timing structure of the buffers as they are generated by
the source or demuxer element.
gst_segment_set_seek() -> gst_segment_do_seek()
Rename the NEWSEGMENT event to SEGMENT.
Make parsing of the SEGMENT event into a GstSegment structure.
Pass a GstSegment structure when making a new SEGMENT event. This allows us to
pass the timing info directly to the next element. No accumulation is needed in
the receiving element, all the info is inside the element.
Remove gst_segment_set_newsegment(): This function as used to accumulate
segments received from upstream, which is now not needed anymore because the
segment event contains the complete timing information.
API: gst_mini_object_weak_ref()
API: gst_mini_object_weak_unref()
Add weak referencing functionality to GstMiniObject, which
allows to get notifications when an mini object is destroyed
but doesn't increase the real refcount. This is mostly
useful for bindings.
Fixes bug #609473.
This allows to get the internal pad of ghostpads and
proxypads without using gst_pad_iterate_internal_links()
and is much more convenient.
The internal pad of a ghostpad is the pad of the opposite direction
that is used to link to the ghostpad target.
This prevents adding duplicates over and over again to the resulting
caps if they already describe the new intersection result.
While this changes intersection from O(n*m) to O(n^2*m), it results in
smaller caps, which in the end will decrease further processing times.
For example in an audioconvert ! audioconvert ! audioconvert pipeline,
when forwarding the downstream caps preference in basetransform
(see e26da72de25a91c3eaad9f7c8b2f53ba888a0394) this results in
16 instead of 191 caps structures.

This reverts commit 9ef1346b1f.
Way to much for one commit and I'm not sure we want to get rid of the pad caps
just like that. It's nice to have the buffer and its type in onw nice bundle
without having to drag the complete context with it.
Remove pad_alloc and all references. This can now be done more efficiently and
more flexible with the ALLOCATION query and the bufferpool objects. There is no
reverse negotiation yet but that will be done with an event later.
Currently fails (in normal circumstances) because we create a
socket pair for each bin's bus and exhaust the number of available
file descriptors.

Adding a buffer to the end of a GstBufferList is supposed to be a fast
operation, but it was not since the iterator does not advance its
nextpointer when adding buffers and GList does not have a tail pointer.
Using a GQueue to store the buffers makes it easier to add buffers to
the end of the list and this operation will now be much more efficient.
Adding an entire GList of buffers using
gst_buffer_list_iterator_add_list() will however have to iterate over
the list being added to be able to update the tail pointer in the
GQueue.
Replace subbuffer and copy vmethods by a more generic transform function that
can then be parametrised by transform specific data. This should allow us to
implement make-writable and more future transform functions.
Our helloworld example thatw e reference from the manual has been a bit
complicated to serve a first contact with gstreamer. Since we have and
promote playbin2 as a playback api use it here.
Based on work from Mathias Hasselmann <mathias.hasselmann@gmx.de>
Fixes#424143
Make separate api for getting and adding metadata. This allows us to pass extra
parameters to the init functions when creating metadata, which is needed for
specific API implementations.
Add beginnings of memory metadata.
Add first implementation of arbitrary buffer metadata. We use a simple linked
linked of slice allocated metadata chunks. Future implementations could use
something more performant.
Add get, remove, iterate methods to handle the metadata.
Passing e.g. location=foo would lead to warnings because g_filename_to_uri()
wants an absolute file path and returns NULL otherwise. Use brand-new
gst_filename_to_uri() instead, which will try harder to create a proper
URI for us.
Also add unit test.
Avoid doing unnecessary pad-allocs when on passthrough mode.
If multiple basetransform elements are on a pipeline, they
would do a pad-alloc for each received buffer, each element
would do this, so we would have lots of pad allocs on the
pipeline for a single buffer being pushed through it.
This patch attempts to reduce this amount by avoiding
doing pad-allocs if the element has already done it
after the last pushed buffer. So it will only be allowed
to do a new pad-alloc after it has pushed a buffer, so we get
1x1 pad-alloc and buffer ratio

Makes gst_bus_add_watch(), gst_bus_add_watch_full(), gst_bus_add_signal_watch(),
and gst_bus_add_signal_watch_full() convenience functions automatically pick up
any non-default main contexts set for the current thread via
g_main_thread_push_thread_default().
Remove code that isn't needed any longer, which sets the multiqueue
to PLAYING and back before unreffing, in order to avoid a deadlock
waiting for gstpad tasks that were never started. The problem seems
to have been fixed long ago.
The unit tests are riddled with g_assert() and friends, make sure we
don't disable assert and cast checks for the unit tests even if
this has been specified for the rest of the code base, e.g. via
--disable-glib-asserts.
Adds getcaps/setcaps to output-selector and adds a property
to select which type of negotiation should be done.
The available modes are:
* none: no negotiation (current behavior), getcaps return ANY and
setcaps aren't set on any of the peers
* all: use all pads (default), getcaps returns the intersection of
peer pads and setcaps is set on all peers
* active: getcaps and setcaps are proxied to the active pad

Make the _get_caps functions behave like the _get_caps_reffed variants and
remove the _reffed variants. This means that _get_caps doesn't return a writable
caps anymore and an explicit _make_writable() is needed before modifying the

Catch errors and warnings on the bus. This fixes hanging pipelines in the case

When basetransform received an unsupported caps on pad_alloc
it just returned not-negotiated. This patch makes it query
the allowed caps between his sinkpad and upstream's srcpad
to find a caps to suggest.
This happens when dinamically switching pipeline elements
and upstream pad_allocs with the previous caps that was
being used.
Fixes#614296
This is a string describing a date and/or date/time in a simple subset of
the ISO-8601 format, namely either "YYYY-MM-DD" or "YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MMZ" (with
'T' the date/time separator and the 'Z' indicating UTC).
The main purpose of this field is to keep track of plugin and element versions
on an absolute timeline, so it's possible to determine which one is newer when
comparing two date time numbers. This will allow us to express 'replaces'-type
relationships betweeen plugins and element factories in future, even across
different modules and plugin merges or splits (source module version numbers
aren't particularly useful here, since they can only meaningfully be compared
within the same module). It also allows applications and libraries to reliably
check that a plugin is recent enough without making assumptions about modules
or module versions.
We use a string here to keep things simple and clear, esp. on the build system
side of things.

The problem lies in the fact that multiqueue will now operate somewhat
similarly to the flow aggregation logic of demuxers and therefore
will stopp whenever all downstream pads return NOT_LINKED and/or
UNEXPECTED and there's no more buffers to push.
The latest commits should not affect any regular use-case, but the bug
report will be kept open so the previous behaviour can be re-established
if needed.
Fixes#609486
The stream status message object may be of a non-GObject type, e.g.
G_TYPE_POINTER (see GstAudioSrc), so print that properly instead
of assuming the value holds an object.
When we receive an UNEXPECTED flowreturn from downstream, we must not shutdown
the pushing thread because upstream will at some point push an EOS that we still
need to push further downstream.
To achieve this, convert the UNEXPECTED return value to OK. Add a fixme so that
we implement the right logic to propagate the flowreturn upstream at some point.
Also clean up the unit test a little.
Fixes#608136
When we unblock a pad with the same user_data, the destroy callback is not
called. This leads to refcounting leaks that cannot be avoided. Instead always
call the destroy notify whenever we install a new pad block.
In particular, this fixes a nasty pad leak in decodebin2.
Also update the unit test to have more accurate comments and test the required
behaviour.
and install into a different directory $(libexecdir/gstreamer-0.10) so that
everything is versioned properly.
NOTE: run 'make clean' after updating; if you are running an uninstalled setup,
you will need to update your gst-uninstalled script (unless it's symlinked
to gstreamer core master) and exit/enter your uninstalled environment to get
the updated environment. If you are running an installed setup, you should
run 'make uninstall' before merging this change or remove the old
plugin-scanner binary manually.

Avoid a race where a miniobject is recycled and quickly freed, which causes the
