The newly exposed vmethods are pause, resume, stop and clear_all.
The existing reset vmethod is deprecated.
The audio sink will fallback to calling reset if pause or stop
are not provided and will fallback to calling start if
resume is not provided. There is no default clear_all
implementation.
Existing audio sinks continue to work as before.
This change is useful for sinks that need to distinguish
between a pause and a stop (currently both are handled
by a reset) and is needed for https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=788362https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=788361
Since we started depending on GLib 2.44, we can be sure this macro is
defined (it will be a no-op on compilers that don't support it). For
plugins we should just start using `G_DECLARE_FINAL_TYPE` which means we
no longer need the macro there, but for most types in base/gst-libs we
don't want to break ABI, which means it's better to just keep it like it
is (and use the `#ifdef` instead).
We need different export decorators for the different libs.
For now no actual change though, just rename before the release,
and add prelude headers to define the new decorator to GST_EXPORT.
Make it possible for subclasses to provide the timestamp (as an absolute time
against the pipeline clock) of the last read data.
Fix up alsa to provide the timestamp received from alsa. Because the alsa
timestamps are in monotonic time, we can only do this when the monotonic clock
has been selected as the pipeline clock.
