Elements inherited from GstAudioDecoder, supporting PLC and introducing
delay produce invalid timestamps. Good example is opusdec with in-band FEC
enabled. After receiving GAP event it delays the audio concealment until
the next buffer arrives. The next buffer will have DISCONT flag set which
will make GstAudioDecoder to reset it's internal state, thus forgetting
the timestamp of GAP event. As a result the concealed audio will have the
timestamp of the next buffer (with DISCONT flag) but not the timestamp
from the event.
Don't feed 64-bit integer variable into vararg function that expects
an unsigned integer to go with GST_TAG_TRACK_NUMBER. This would
cause crashes on 32-bit platforms, and if not that then test
failures if the comparisons fail later (at least on big endian
platforms).
The set_format vfunc does not pass ownership of the caps
to the decoder, so we mustn't unref the caps there.
gst_event_new_caps() does not take ownership of the caps
passed, so we must unref the caps afterwards.
Fixes leaks when running test in valgrind in 1.4 branch.
With most decoder libraries, and especially when accessing codecs via
OpenMAX or similar APIs, we don't have the ability to properly related
the output buffers to a number of input samples. And could e.g. get
a fractional number of input buffers decoded at a time.
Previously this would in the end lead to an error message and stopped
playback. Change it to a warning message instead and try to handle it
gracefully. In theory the subclass can now get timestamp tracking
wrong if it completely misuses the API, but if on average it behaves
correct (and gst-omx and others do) it will continue to work properly.
Also add a test for the new behaviour.
We don't change it in the encoder yet as that requires more internal logic
changes AFAIU and I'm not aware of a case where this was a problem so far.
Check that even if the subclass doesn't call set_output_format, the base
class should use upstream provided caps to fill the output caps that is
pushed before the gap event is forwarded, otherwise it ends again fixating
the rate and channels to 1.
