API: GstVideoRate:force-fps
Changing the framerate during playback is not possible
with a capsfilter downstream if upstream is not using
gst_pad_alloc_buffer(). In that case there's no way in
0.10 to signal to videorate that the preferred framerate
has changed.
This new property will force the output framerate to
a specific value and can be changed during playback.
In various use-case you want to dynamically change the framerate (e.g.
live streams where the available network bandwidth changes). Doing this
via capsfilters in the pipeline tends to be very cumbersome and racy,
using this property instead makes it very painless.
The outgoing buffer timestamp is calculated by scaling an output buffer
count by the src pad frame rate caps. If these caps change, we need to
reset the count and work from a new base timestamp. The new output
buffer timestamp is then the count scaled by the new caps values added
onto the base timestamp.
Add a property that makes videorate skip to the first buffer it
receives instead of padding the stream from segment start to the
first real buffer.
Fixes bug #567928.
Handle buffers with -1 timestamps better by keeping track of the en time of the
previous buffer and assuming the -1 timestamp buffer goes right after the
previous one.
when we have two buffers that are equally good, output the oldest buffer once to
minimize latency.
don't try to calculate latency when the input framerate is unknown.
When videorate duplicates a buffer with a DISCONT flag, it copies the discont on
the first pushed buffer but fails to clear it for subsequent buffers. This
causes theoraenc!oggmux and possibly other elements to consider this a discont
stream.
Fix videorate to produce discont as the first buffer and after a flushing seek.
Fixes#580271.
