Use signed clock times for running time everywhere
so that we handle negative running times without
going haywire, similar to what queue and multiqueue
do these days.
Set the async-handling property on GstBin to let it manage
async-handling instead of the local handling from the previous
commit. Works because of #174a5e in core
When switching fragments, hide the async-start/async-done
messages from the parent bin, as otherwise we sometimes (very rarely)
hang in PAUSED instead of returning / continuing to PLAYING
state.
This signal allows a user to directly return a sorted list of
files to be joined, so that they don't have to follow the
filename pattern that the "location" property expects.

Make sure that all data is drained out when the reference pad
goes EOS. Fixes a problem where data that arrives on other
pads after the reference pad finishes can stall forever and
never pass EOS.

Deadlock occurs when splitting files if one stream received no buffer during
the first GOP of the next file. That can happen in that scenario for example:
1) The first GOP of video is collected, it has a duration of 10s.
max_in_running_time is set to 10s.
2) Other streams catchup and we receive the first subtitle buffer at ts=0 and
has a duration of 1min.
3) We receive the 2nd subtitle buffer with a ts=1min. in_running_time is set to
1min. That buffer is blocked in handle_mq_input() because
max_in_running_time is still 10s.
4) Since all in_running_time are now > 10s, max_out_running_time is now set to
10s. That first GOP gets recorded into the file. The muxer pop buffers out
of the mq, when it tries to pop a 2nd subtitle buffer it blocks because the
GstDataQueue is empty.
5) A 2nd GOP of video is collected and has a duration of 10s as well.
max_in_running_time is now 20s. Since subtitle's in_running_time is already
1min, that GOP is already complete.
6) But let's say we overran the max file size, we thus set state to
SPLITMUX_STATE_ENDING_FILE now. As soon as a buffer with ts > 10s (end of
previous GOP) arrives in handle_mq_output(), EOS event is sent downstream
instead. But since the subtitle queue is empty, that's never going to
happen. Pipeline is now deadlocked.
To fix this situation we have to:
- Send a dummy event through the queue to wakeup output thread.
- Update out_running_time to at least max_out_running_time so it sends EOS.
- Respect time order, so we set out_running_tim=max_in_running_time because
that's bigger than previous buffer and smaller than next.

If we have an error during fwrite call, file stays open and thus next
incoming buffer will trigger an assert when trying to opening a new
file.
This happens if we do not restart element, file is closed at stop, and
if application handles the returned GST_FLOW_ERROR to keep bin alive.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=762434
Don't increment running time from every buffer. The correct
logic to only increment when running time advances is a
little further down, so delete this left-over line.
Instead, delay it until all request pads have been released. This is
because the release_pad() vfunc requires the multiqueue and muxer to
be there in order to release their request pads as well. If those
elements are destroyed earlier, release_pad() does not work, no
pads are released and some resources are leaked.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=753622
mux_start_time refers to the running_time of the buffer
that goes first in the output file. Normally this time is
0, so this variable is initialized to 0 during the state
change to PAUSED.
However, when dealing with dynamic pipelines and starting
a recording while the pipeline has already run for a while,
the running_time of the first buffer is > 0 and this causes
a problem with detecting the end of the first file(s) when
splitting by duration, because the code will later compare
the threshold_time with (last buffer running_time - mux_start_time)
and will get it wrong until mux_start_time advances enough
to make this difference < threshold_time, creating empty files
in the meantime.

When we haven't started yet, set the start_index when we set the index property,
so that we start at the right index position after the initial seek. The index
property was never really meant to be for writing, but it used to work, so let's
support it for backwards compatibility.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=739472
If the GOP is completed, pads have to start gathering for the
next one but it is possible that the the state might go to
COLLECTING_GOP_START and back to WAITING_GOP_COMPLETE before the
thread has a chance to wake up and proceed, leaving it trapped in
the check_completed_gop loop and deadlocking the other threads
waiting for it to advance.
To solve it, this patch also checks that tha input running time
hasn't changed to prevent this scenario.
Don't hold the main splitmux part lock over
the parent state change function, as it prevents
posting error messages that happen. Since the purpose
is to prevent typefinding from proceeding, use a
separate mutex just for that.
In certain applications, splitting into files named after a base
location template and an incremental sequence number is not enough.
This signal gives more fine-grained control to the application to
decide how to name the files.

Fix 2 startup races when things happen too quickly, and 1
at shutdown by holding a ref to the pads in use until the
loop functions exit.
Handle errors activating file parts and publish them on

Sometimes, extra async-start/done from the internal sink
while the element is still starting up can cause splitmuxsink
to stall in PAUSED state when it has been set to PLAYING
by the app. Drop the child's async-start/done messages while
switching, so they don't cause state changes at the
splitmuxsink level.

When deciding whether it's time to switch to a new file, take into
account data that's been released for pushing, but hasn't yet
been pushed - because downstream is slow or the threads haven't been
scheduled.
Fixes a race in the unit test and probably in practice - sometimes
failing to switch when it should for an extra GOP or two.
Also fix a problem in splitmuxsrc where playback sometimes
stalls at startup if types are found too quickly.

This new mode ensures that files will never exceed a certain duration
based on incoming buffer PTS (and duration if present)
Note:
* You need timestamped buffers (duh). If some of the incoming buffers don't
have PTS, then it will just accept them in the current file
This property can be used in combination with next-file=max-size
(and perhaps a future next-file=max-duration) to make sure that
each file part starts cleanly with a key frame and the appropriate headers.
In order for this property to work correctly, upstream elements should make
sure than any headers that need to be written in a standalone file are:
1) in the streamheader caps field
2) and/or in the stream as one or more buffers marked with GST_BUFFER_FLAG_HEADER
that are just before the keyframe buffer
This is useful for MPEG-TS/MPEG-PS file segmenting in
combination with mpegtsmux or mpegpsmux.
Original patch by: Tim-Philipp Müller <tim@centricular.com>
because _release_pad tries to release it from ctx->sinkpad, which is
multiqueue's sink pad, and currently fails because the probe is not
installed there
When multifilesink is operating in any mode other than one file
per buffer, the last file created won't have a file message posted
as multifilesink doesn't handle the EOS event.
This patch fixes it by using the last position to post a file
message when EOS is received. This should ensure at least the
time related data and the filename are posted to the application
or other elements
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=747000
Handle the case where a short file reaches EOS while we're still
waiting for no-more-pads, and make sure we continue to the internal
READY state for real playback to work properly later.
Implement 2 new elements - splitmuxsink and splitmuxsrc.
splitmuxsink is a bin which wraps a muxer and takes 1 video stream,
plus audio/subtitle streams, and starts a new file
whenever necessary to avoid overrunning a threshold of either bytes
or time. New files are started at a keyframe, and corresponding audio
and subtitle streams are split at packet boundaries to match
video GOP timestamps.
splitmuxsrc is a corresponding source element which handles
the splitmux:// URL and plays back all component files,
reconstructing the original elementary streams as it goes.
They are very confusing for people, and more often than not
also just not very accurate. Seeing 'last reviewed: 2005' in
your docs is not very confidence-inspiring. Let's just remove
those comments.
We assume for now that all buffers in a buffer list
should end up in the same file (so we can group GOPs
in buffer lists, for example). Could optimise this
a bit to avoid the memcpy.
Handle corner case where we try to read beyond the end of the
last file part, in which case we want to return a short read.
If we get fewer bytes than expected for any other file part,
we should just error out, since something fishy's going on
then.
Looks like some parsers (in some versions at least) expect the
offsets to be set, and behave weird if that's not the case
(e.g. off-by-one in h264parse).

Add a property to allow control over what event causes a file
to finish being written and a new file start. The default is
the same as before -- each buffer causes a new file to be
written. Added is a case where buffers are written to the
same file until a discontinuity in the stream.
Link to properties. Correct titles for examples. Document a few trivial cases. Keep lists in section file and docs/plugins/Makefile.am alphabetically ordered.
