Updated Decklink SDK to version 11.2 in order to support newer cards like the Decklink 8K Pro.
This required to replace the duplex property by a profile property.
Profile values can be the following:
- bmdProfileOneSubDeviceFullDuplex
- bmdProfileOneSubDeviceHalfDuplex
- bmdProfileTwoSubDevicesFullDuplex
- bmdProfileTwoSubDevicesHalfDuplex
- bmdProfileFourSubDevicesHalfDuplex
Fixes#987
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gst-plugins-bad/-/merge_requests/1665>
Fixes the time calculations when dealing with a slaved clock (as
will occur with more than one decklink video sink), when performing
flushing seeks causing stalls in the output timeline, pausing.
Tighten up the calculations by relying solely on the internal time
(from the internal clock) for determining when to schedule display
frames instead attempting to track pause lengths from the external
clock and converting to internal time. This results in a much easier
offset calculation for choosing the output time and ensures that the
clock is always advancing when we need it to.
This is fixup to the 'monotonically increasing output timestamps' goal
in: bf849e9a69
Instead of relying on buffers after a state change to PLAYING to always start
from 0, track the amount of time we have spent outside playing but not changed
state to PAUSED.
This is part of a much larger goal to always keep the frames we schedule to
decklink be always increasing. This also allows us to avoid using both the
sync and async frame display functions which aren't recomended to be used
together.
If the output timestatmsp is not always increasing decklink seems to hold
onto the latest frame and may cause a flash in the output if the played
sequence has a framerate less than the video output.
Scenario is play for N seconds, pause, flushing seek to some other position,
play again. Each of the play sequences would normally start at 0 with
the decklink time. As a result, the latest frame from the previous sequence
is kept alive waiting for it's timestamp to pass before either dropping
(if a subsequent frame in the new sequence overrides it) or displayed
causing the out of place frame to be displayed.
This is also supported by the debug logs from the decklink video sink
element where a ScheduledFrameCompleted() callback would not occur for
the frame until the above had happened.
It was timing related as to whether the frame was displayed based
on the decklink refresh cycle (which seems to be 16ms here),
when the frame was scheduled by the sink and the difference between
the 'time since vblank' of the two play requests (and thus start times
of scheduled playback).

The Decklink and GstAudioBaseSink APIs don't fit very well together,
which causes various problems due to inaccuracies in the clock
calculations and the actual ringbuffer and GStreamer's copy getting of
sync.
Problems are audio drop-outs and A/V sync getting wrong after
pausing/seeking.

Otherwise we will overflow the internal buffer of the hardware
with useless frames and run into an error. This is necessary until
this bug in basesink is fixed:
