Rename gst_base_sink_wait_eos() to gst_base_sink_wait() to avoid confusion and
introspection problems with the ::wait_eos vmethod. Also this method can be used
to wait for other things than EOS. Update the docs a little.
Add a new message to reset the pipeline running_time. Currently reseting the
pipeline can only be requested in the async_done message which means that the
pipeline needs to be prerolled. It is better to move this to a separate message.
They can be used to select snapping behavior (to previous, next, or
nearest location, where relevant) when seeking.
The seeking implementation (eg, demuxer) may currently ignore some
or all of these flags.
It's only used internally, most other users will likely
want to use gst_registry_find_plugin() directly instead
(and if not, they can easily walk the list and doing the
strcmp themselves).
This is an implementation detail really, and it's not
clear what anyone would do with this. It's unused as
far as I'm aware, so just remove it for now.
Rename the _get_value_array() functions to _get_g_value_array() and reintroduce
the former to operate on plain unboxed c datatypes (like in 0.10). The _g_value
variants are for bindings while the _value ones are more suited to processing
in elements.
Add gst_element_class_{add,set}_metadata() variants for static strings,
so we can avoid unnecessary g_strdup()s.
API: gst_element_class_add_static_metadata()
API: gst_element_class_set_static_metadata()
Remove GST_MAJORMINOR and replace it by GST_API_VERSION
Also set GST_VERSION_{MAJOR,MINOR,MICRO,NANO} explicitely
now.
All versions are at 1.0.0 now for the release soon but
API/ABI can still change until the 1.0.0 release.
Next release versions until 1.0.0 will be 0.10.9X and
these will be release candidates. GST_VERSION_* will
nonetheless stay at 1.0.0.0.
gst_buffer_take_memory -> gst_buffer_insert_memory because insert is what the
method does.
Make all methods deal with ranges so that we can replace, merge, remove and map
a certain subset of the memory in a buffer. With the new methods we can make
some code nicer and reuse more code. Being able to deal with a subset of the
buffer memory allows us to optimize more cases later (most notably RTP headers
and payload that could be in different memory objects).
Make some more convenient macros that call the more generic range methods.
Add gst_buffer_append() which appends the memory blocks from one buffer to
another. Remove the old inefficient _merge() and _join() methods which forced a
premature memcpy in most cases.
Remove the _is_span() and _span() methods they are not needed anymore now that
we can _append(). Merging and spanning will be delayed until mapping or maybe
not at all when the element can deal with the different memory blocks.
Separate the bufferpool and allocator hints in the allocation query, some
of the values don't always make sense together.
Keep the bufferpool and its configuration together.
Keep the allocator and its parameters together.
Allow for multiple bufferpool configurations in the query.
Group the extra allocation parameters in a GstAllocationParams structure to make
it easier to deal with them and so that we can extend them later if needed.
Make gst_buffer_new_allocate() take the GstAllocationParams for added
functionality.
Add boxed type for GstAllocationParams.
Also register queries with a QueryType that allows us to check if the event is
sent in the right direction. Add a serialized query type because we will need
this for the allocation query.
Remove the QueryTypeDefinition stuff, it is not used anymore and we now use
custom queries and separate API for them.
Update defs.
Rename _do_simplify() to _simplify(). The name was introduced as a replacement
method for a deprecated method but we can now rename it again.
Fix some docs.
There isn't really any need to provide public API for that. It's not
used anywhere in practice, and we aim to provide an API that works
for GstCaps, not some kind of generic set manipulation API based on
GValue. Making this private also makes it easier to optimise this
later. We can always put it back if someone actually needs it.
