The FLV header cannot be trusted to indicate video or
audio presence, as the comments already mention. Don't
delay pushing tags waiting for streams that might never
appear.
Tags are now pushed immediately after they change:
- After parsing an onMetaData script object
- After negotiating caps on a pad
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=768440
The tags in FLV are DTS. In audio cases, and for many video format this makes
no difference, but for AVC with B-Frames, PTS need to be computed from
composition timestamp CTS, with PTS = DTS + CTS.

Scan for needed part upon a seek as opposed to doing a complete scan
at startup, which may take some time depending on file and/or platform.
Also accept index metadata in pull mode and peek for some metadata
at the end of the file when deemed appropriate.

Put the GstSegment directly into the instance struct instead of
allocating and free'ing it again.
Push tags already if only one pad was added, no need to wait for
the second one.
When generating our index set has_video and has_audio if we find
video or audio in case the FLV header has incorrect data.

If our index was created by the element and not provided from the
outside we should destroy it when starting a new stream to get
all old entries removed.

Close the currently playing segment from the streaming thread
instead of the thread where the seek event is handled.

It does not do seeking yet, it supports pull and push mode so
YES
you can use it to play youtube videos directly from an HTTP uri.
Not so much testing done yet but it parses metadata, reply to
duration queries, etc...
