Corrected the initialisation of mimeType in
gst_mpdparser_get_list_and_nb_of_audio_language: the variable is used
in a loop, so it must be set to NULL at the beginning of each iteration.

Before returning the next fragment duration value, the
gst_mpd_client_get_next_fragment_duration function tries to validate it.
But the condition was incorrect.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=751539
We're interested in the offset between the period start timestamp and the
actual media timestamp so that we can properly correct for it. The absolute
presentation offset to timestamp 0 is useless as the only thing we really
care about is the offset between the current fragment timestamp and the
media timestamp.
Otherwise we will look for segments after the period usually. The seek
timestamp is relative to the start of the first period and we have to
select a segment relative to the current period's start.
We didn't do this for fragments that are generated on demand from a template,
only for the other cases when they were all generated upfront. This caused
fragment timestamps to start from 0 again for each new period.
If not set, the timeShiftBufferDepth has a default value of -1.
The standard says that this should be interpreted as infinite.
The gst_mpd_client_check_time_position function incorrectly compares
timeShiftBufferDepth with 0 instead of -1 to determine if it was set.

The last parameter of gst_mpd_client_add_media_segment function is a
duration. But when called from gst_mpd_client_setup_representation, the
last argument was wrongly set to PeriodEnd
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=751449
The period start information, calculated in gst_mpd_client_setup_media_presentation
function is stored in stream_period->start. The information read from
xml file and stored in stream_period->period->start is not changed.
If the xml file does not contain the period start information,
stream_period->period->start will be -1.
The function gst_mpd_client_get_next_segment_availability_end_time wants to
use period start time, but incorrectly uses stream_period->period->start
(value from xml file, which could be -1) instead of stream_period->start
(computed value)
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=751465
According to ISO/IEC 23009-1:2014(E), chapter 5.3.2.1
"The Period extends until the PeriodStart of the next Period, or until
the end of the Media Presentation in the case of the last Period."
This means that a configured value for optional attribute period duration
should be ignored if the next period contains a start attribute or it is
the last period and the MPD contains a mediaPresentationDuration attribute.

Added some warning messages in gst_mpd_client_setup_streaming to help
debug situations when the function will return FALSE.
Renamed a wrongly spelled variable.

The gst_mpdparser_get_rep_idx_with_max_bandwidth function assumes
representations are ordered by bandwidth and incorrectly returns the
first one when wanting the one with minimum bandwidth.
Corrected gst_mpdparser_get_rep_idx_with_max_bandwidth function to get the
correct representation in case max_bandwidth parameter is 0.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=751153
Added a check for a_node->ns before accessing a_node->ns->href in
gst_mpdparser_get_xml_node_namespace. This could happen if the xml
is missing the default namespace.

If the presentationTimeOffset attribute of a DASH manifest contains
a value that is larger than 2^32, gstmpdparser incorrectly calculates
the stream's presentation time offset. This is due to two bugs:
1: Using gst_mpdparser_get_xml_prop_unsigned_integer rather than
gst_mpdparser_get_xml_prop_unsigned_integer_64 to parse the
attribute
2: gst_mpd_client_setup_representation multiplying the value by
GST_SECOND and then dividing by timescale

This reverts commit 37011e5198.
This change was actually completely unnecessary, the streams in question are
marked as static and are not considered live anyway.
Otherwise we'll only get half of its bits printed on 32 bit architectures.
For this, promote the %d-style format strings to something that accepts
64 bit integers with G_GINT64_MODIFIER.
Using format strings from an untrusted source without validation is
calling for problems, and at least allows to remotely crash your application.
If not worse.
The functions to get the next fragment, next fragment timestamp and to advance
to the next fragment need to work differently when stream->segments is NULL.
Use logic similar to that introduced by commit 2105a310 to perform these
functions.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=749684
When all fragments have already been downloaded on a live stream
dashdemux would busy loop as the default implementation of
has_next_fragment would return TRUE. Implement it to correctly
signal if adaptivedemux should wait for the manifest update before
trying to get new fragments.
When updating the manifest the timestamps on it might have changed a little
due to rounding and timescale conversions. If the change makes the timestamp
of the current segment to go up it makes dashdemux reposition to the previous
one causing one extra unnecessary download.
So when repositioning add an extra 10 microseconds to cover for that rounding
issues and increase the chance of falling in the same segment.
Additionally, also improve the time used when the client is already after the
last segment. Instead of using the last segment starting timestamp use the
final timestamp to make it reposition to the next one and not to the one that
has already been downloaded.
These functions of directly getting and setting segment indexes
are no longer useful as now we need 2 indexes: repeat and segment
index.
The only operations needed are advance_segment, going back to the
first one or seeking for a timestamp.
Segments are now stored with their repeat counts instead of spanding
them to multiple segments. This caused advancing to the next segment
using a single index to have to iterate over the whole list every time.
This commit addresses this by storing both the segment index as well
as the repeat index and makes advancing to next segment just an
increment of the repeat or the segment index.
Use a single segment to represent it internally to avoid using too
much memory. This has the drawback of issuing a linear search to
find the correct segment to play but this can be fixed by using
binary searches or caching the current position and just looking
for the next one.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=748369
The segment start time is calculated as the offset into the current segment.
The old condition to detect the end of period (i.e. segment start time >
period start + period duration) failed when the period start was not 0 since
the segment start time does not take the period start time into account.
Fix this detection by only comparing the segment start to the period duration.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=733369
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.
The parsing function already frees the old value (if any), avoid a double
free by not freeing it before calling the function without setting the
pointer to NULL

The _parse_url function already frees the previous pointer, avoid
freeing it before without setting to null or we have a double free.

Remove the dashdemux seeking function to use the one implemented
in mpdparser as it is more complete. This also makes dashdemux not
crash when seeking on streams that use segment templates.
always expose all streams instead of only exposing one of each type.
This is more aligned with gstreamer's way of working. Allows the user
to select the stream that it wants to use by linking its pad and leaving
the unused ones as unlinked.
There is an issue for live streams where download_loop will keep
downloading segments until it gets a 404 error for a segment
that has not yet been published. This is a problem because this
request for a segment that doesn't exist will propagate all the
way back to the origin server(s). This means that dashdemux causes
extra load on the origin server(s) for segments that aren't yet
available.
This patch uses availabilityStartTime, period
and the host's idea of UTC to decide if a fragment is available to
be requested from an HTTP server and filter out requests for fragments
that are not yet available.

gstmpdparser.h:530: warning: type qualifiers ignored on function return type
gstmpdparser.c:4177: warning: type qualifiers ignored on function return type
For SegmentTemplate elements containing a startNumber attribute, the
`number' member of GstMediaSegments should be offset by the value of
startNumber; however, this is not currently the case. As a result, the
first URI(s) requested by the download loop will be wrong.
This commit ensures that segment numbers will be offset by startNumber
when one is present in a SegmentTemplate element.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=705661
When using a SegmentTemplate element, the timestamps of the buffers
output by dashdemux are incorrect, causing problems downstream.
The reason is that GstMediaSegment start times are calculated (in
gst_mpdparser_get_chunk_by_index) by multiplying segment index by
segment duration and then scaling the result according the `timebase'
attribute from the MPD. However, the segment duration is already a
GstClockTime (i.e., it has already been scaled according to the timebase
from the MPD and converted to a nanosecond value), so multiplying it by
the segment index will give the correct timestamp without the need for
any further scaling.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=705679
During a live stream it is possible for dashdemux to lag behind on a
slow connection or to rush ahead of the connection os too fast.
For the first case it is necessary to jump some segments ahead to be able to
continue playback as old segments are usually deleted from the server.
For the later, dashdemux should wait a little before attempting another
download do give time to the server to produce a new segment
When using a template based segment list, do not try to
contruct a finite segment list for the limits of the available periods.
We might not know when the period ends (for live streams) and we can
always create the segment on demand when requested by dashdemux,
avoiding use of some memory and cpu when re-creating this list.
Replaces the 2 likely larger lists with more appropriate structures
to improve performance.
Replaces S nodes GList for a GQueue, this reduces latency to startup
because of traversing the list just append an element.
Replaces the processed media segments GList for a GPtrArray as it is
constantly acessed by index during playback.
Duration from segment being unknown is a issue from the MPD and not
a programming issue, so the assert isn't useful here. Instead check
and return an error code so the caller can fallback to alternatives
When dashdemux selects its first fragment, it always selects the
first fragment listed in the manifest. For on-demand content,
this is the correct behaviour. However for live content, this
behaviour is undesirable because the first fragment listed in the
manifest might be some considerable time behind "now".
The commit uses the host's idea of UTC and tries to find the
oldest fragment that contains samples for this time of day.

According to the MPEG-DASH spec, certain elements (i.e.
SegmentBase, SegmentTemplate, and SegmentList) should inherit
attributes from the same elements in the containing AdaptationSet
or Period.
Updated the SegmentBase, SegmentTemplate, and SegmentList parsers
to properly inherit attributes from the corresponding elements in
AdaptationSet and/or Period.

Convert all xml attribute/content parsing functions to return a
boolean value indicating whether or not the attribute/content was
present. We need this finer-grained control in order to properly
implement the inheritance policies described in the spec
Also fixed several memory leak conditions when handling errors in
the xml attribute/content parsing functions.

Ensure that g_free/xmlFree is used correctly based on how the
memory was allocated.
When deallocating GLists, there were many places that were using
g_list_foreach and g_list_free. Converted these occurrences to
call g_list_free_full.
Add NULL checks to all xmlFree calls since the documentation does
not guarantee that passing NULL is safe
In places where we are strdup'ing memory allocated by libxml2,
changed those calls to use xmlMemStrdup().
There were several places where we were missing g_slice_free when
deallocating a top-level node structure.
