If a class extending basesrc doesn't set blocksize, basesrc
would try to allocate a (guint)-1 sized buffer, which is enormous
and likely would fail.
Avoid it and error out.
Name the allocation vmethod on srcpad decide_allocation because source pads will
have to decide what allocation parameters will be used.
Name the allocation vmethod on sinkpads propose_allocation because they will
need to configure the allocation query with a proposed values for upstream.
Remove the negotiation from the state change function, it causes data transfer
and bufferpool negotiation, which is not supposed to be done. Since we have the
reconfigure state on the pad, the create function will do the negotiation as
soon as it gets in the streaming thread.
Don't change the state of the bufferpool when going between PAUSED and PLAYING,
it will dealloc and realloc all buffers, which is clearly too invasive. We will
need to add some other way of unblocking the bufferpool.
Make a new method to allocate a buffer + memory that takes the allocator and the
alignment as parameters. Provide a macro for the old method but prefer to use
the new method to encourage plugins to negotiate the allocator properly.
Add a new fill virtual method to basesrc. The purpose of this method is to fill
a provided buffer with data.
Add a default implementation of the create method that allocates a buffer and
calls the fill method on it. This would allow the base class to implement
bufferpool and allocator negotiation on behalf of the subclasses.
Fix the blocksize property.
Make filesrc use the new fill method.
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
This allows subclass to indicate that size reported by src may not be static
and should as such be updated regularly, rather than only when really
needed.
Particular examples are filesrc or fdsrc reading from a file that is still
growing (e.g. being downloaded).
Fixes#652037.
This reverts commit 934faf163c.
Original commit leads to possibly sending newsegment event downstream
in pull mode. In push mode, quite some downstream elements
are likely to only expect newsegment event following a seek they performed
and as such may have their state messed up.
Avoid installing a setcaps function on the srcpad and calling the setcaps
function, we can do more efficiently with sending the event ourself and calling
our vmethod.
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.
Doing so avoids a large timestamp gap between first and second buffer
for live sources which take time to start up.
The first buffer now has a "live" timestamp based on the running time,
as other buffers do.

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.
Especially drop tag events when flushing to not send them over
and over again.
Should've been in the last commit already but I forgot to call
git rebase --continue...
basesrc's default event handler returns TRUE regardless of whether the
event is handled or not. This fixes the handler to conform with the
expected behaviour (which is to only return TRUE when the event has
actually benn handled). gst_bin_do_latency_func() depended on this
(incorrect) behaviour, and is now modified as well.
(Remaining 1-liner change in gstbasesrc.c is to keep gst-indent happy)
Deal with the hints from gtk-doc and fix the xrefs. Apply a work-around for ()
precedence over @. Move "MT Safe" text to doc body in many places. Trim eol
whitespaces.
Only go into LIVE_WAIT when the are not live_running and only stop waiting when
live_running is TRUE. If we don't loop, we could deadlock when called from
outside of basesrc, such as baseaudiosrc.
Fixes#635785
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
caps.
_get_range() is a pad function set by ourselves, therefore we're certain that
the parent is a GstBaseSrc.
Speeds up _get_range by 38%, and the total call by 30%. (valgrind instruction
calls measurements).
Fixes#610246
Updating the segment values must only be done while holding the
STREAM_LOCK and OBJECT_LOCK. This means, reading can be done as
long as one of them is held, not both, which removes some lock-unlock
blocks from performance critical code paths.
Also document, that gst_base_src_set_format() *must* be called in
states <= READY and add an assertion for this. Changing the format
later will completely mess up the segment information.
Set the pad flushing and stop the pad task when the initial seek fails
during activation. Avoids racy calls into the _create() function when
BaseSrc::stop() has already run.
Fixes: #603059
Also, fix some misspelled comments.
There's not much point in using GST_DEBUG_FUNCPTR with GObject
virtual functions such as get_property, set_propery, finalize and
dispose, since they'll never be used by anyone anyway. Saves a
few bytes and possibly a tenth of a polar bear.
When we quickly switch from PLAYING to PAUSED and back to PLAYING it's possible
in some cases that the task refuses to start, This is because when we go to
PAUSED, we unschedule the clock timeout, which could return UNSCHEDULED when
we're back to PLAYING, causing the task to PAUSE again with a wrong-state.
This patch checks if we are running when we return with an UNSCHEDULED return
value and if we are, try to create a new buffer.
Fixes#597550
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()
Return FALSE in basesrc's default query handler when we get a SEEKING query for
a format that's not the one the source operates in. Previously (ie. before, in
the git version) we would return TRUE in that case and seekable=FALSE, which
is more correct, but causes backwards compatibility problems. (Before that
we would change the format of the query when answering, which was completely
broken since callers don't expect that or check for it). Since the SEEKING
query is a fairly recent addition, not all demuxers, parsers and decoders
implement it yet, in which case any SEEKING query by an application will
just be passed upstream where it will then be handled by basesrc. Now, if
e.g. totem does a SEEKING query for TIME format and we have a demuxer that
doesn't implement the query, basesrc would answer it with seekable=FALSE in
most cases, and totem can only take that as authoritative answer, not knowing
that the demuxer doesn't implement the SEEKING query. To avoid this, we make
basesrc return FALSE to SEEKING queries in unhandled formats. That way
applications like totem can fall back on assuming seekability depending on
whether a duration is available, or somesuch. Downstream elements doing
such queries are likely to equate an unhandled query with a non-seekable
response as well, so this should be an acceptable fix for the time being.
