Bitrate-limit is already available in the baseclass and, even though
the bandwidth-usage name is better, hls and mss already used
bitrate-limit. This patch deprecates the bandwidth-usage and maps
it to the baseclass bitrate-limite.
By implementing get_live_seek_range.
As shown by :
gst-validate-1.0 playbin \
uri=http://dev-iplatforms.kw.bbc.co.uk/dash/news24-avc3/news24.php
This patch handles live seeking, by setting a live seek range
comprised between now - timeShiftBufferDepth and now.
The inteersting thing with this stream is that one can actually
ask fragments up to availabilityStartTime, but it seems quite clear
in the spec that content is only guaranteed to exist up to
timeShiftBufferDepth.
One can test live seeking this way :
gst-validate-1.0 playbin \
uri=http://dev-iplatforms.kw.bbc.co.uk/dash/news24-avc3/news24.php \
--set-scenario seek_back.scenario
with scenario being:
description, seek=true
seek, playback-time=position+5.0, start="position-600.0",
flags=accurate+flush
This example will play the stream, wait for five seconds, then seek back
to a position 10 minutes earlier.

Add more power to the chunk_received function (renamed to data_received)
and also to the fragment_finish function.
The data_received function must parse/decrypt the data if necessary and
also push it using the new push_buffer function that is exposed now. The
default implementation gets data from the stream adapter (all available)
and pushes it.
The fragment_finish function must also advance the fragment. The default
implementation only advances the fragment.
This allows the subsegment handling in dashdemux to continuously download
the same file from the server instead of stopping at every subsegment
boundary and starting a new request
gstdashdemux.c:1330:13: error: implicit conversion from enumeration type 'enum _GstAdaptiveDemuxFlowReturn' to different enumeration type
'GstFlowReturn' [-Werror,-Wenum-conversion]
ret = GST_ADAPTIVE_DEMUX_FLOW_SUBSEGMENT_END;
~ ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The ISOBMFF profile allows definind subsegments in a segment. At those
subsegment boundaries the client can switch from one representation to
another as they have aligned indexes.
To handle those the 'sidx' index is parsed from the stream and the
entries point to pts/offset of the samples in the stream. Knowing that
the entries are aligned in the different representation allows the client
to switch mid fragment. In this profile a single fragment is used per
representation and the subsegments are contained in this fragment.
To notify the superclass about the subsegment boundary the chunk_received
function returns a special flow return that indicates that. In this case,
the super class will check if a more suitable bitrate is available and will
change to the same subsegment in this new representation.
It also requires special handling of the position in the stream as the
fragment advancing is now done by incrementing the index of the subsegment.
It will only advance to the next fragment once all subsegments have been
downloaded.

If EOS or ERROR happens before the download loop thread has reached its
g_cond_wait() call, then the g_cond_signal doesn't have any effect and
the download loop thread stucks later.

The internal pad still keeps its EOS flag and event as it can be assigned
after the flush-start/stop pair is sent. The EOS is assigned from the streaming
thread so this is racy.
To be sure to clear it, it has to be done after setting the source to READY to
be sure that its streaming thread isn't running.

If the language is not specified in the AdaptationSet, use the ContentComponent
node to get it. We only get it if there is only a single ContentComponent as
it doesn't seem clear on what to do if there are multiple entries

When a seek with a negative rate is requested, find the target
segment where gstsegment.stop belongs in and then download from
this segment backwards until the first segment.
This allows proper reverse playback.
When flushing, this will prevent dashdemux from trying to download more
fragments or more chunks of the same fragment before stopping.
Also improves the error handling to not transform everything non-ok into
an error.

Set up a message handling function to be able to catch errors
from the source element and signal the cond to allow the download
loop to retry the download.
Instead, use a source element linked to a ghostpad to provide
smaller buffers and more granular control for downstream
buffering elements while also reducing startup latency
