A lot of streams will do a poor job of estimating proper duration of fragments
in the playlist, but over several fragments have it correct.
Instead of constantly trying to realign the estimated stream time, allow for a
more realistic tolerance of 3-4 video frames
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/6610>
When updating playlists, we want to know whether the updated playlist is
continuous with the previous one. That is : if we advance, will the next
fragment need to have the DISCONT buffer set on it or not.
If that happens (because we switched variants, or the playlist all of a sudden
changed) we remember that there is a pending discont for the next fragment. That
will be used and resetted the next time we get the fragment information.
Previously this was only partially done. And it was racy because it was set
directly on `GstAdaptiveDemux2Stream->discont` when a playlist was updated,
instead of when the next fragment was prepared.

When dealing with live streams, the function was assuming that all segments of
the playlist had valid stream_time. But that isn't TRUE, for example in the case
of failing to synchronize playlists.
Fixes losing sync due to not being able to match playlist on updates
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/6610>
Even if no new synchronization information is available.
This is necessary because the timestamp offset logic in rtpbin depends
on the base RTP time that is determined by the jitterbuffer, but this
changes all the time (especially in mode=slave) and the timestamp
offsets have to be updated accordingly. Doing so is especially important
if they're only determined by the RTP-Info, which never changes from the
very beginning.
The interval can be configured via the new min-sync-interval property.
Synchronization happens at least that often, but at most as often as the
old sync-interval property allows.
Both intervals are now based on the monotonic system clock.
Additionally, clean up synchronization code a bit, only emit either
inband NTP or RTCP SR synchronization at the same time, based on which
one has the more recent time information, and only emit RTP-Info
synchronization if it wasn't provided previously at the same time as the
NTP-based synchronization information.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/6543>
There is generally no requirement to ignore RTCP SR if the RTP time of
the SR differs a lot from the last received RTP packet. The mapping
between RTP and NTP time stays valid until there was a stream reset, in
which case we wouldn't use that information anyway.
When using rtcp-sync-send-time=false the default of 1s difference can
easily be exceeded, e.g. if encoding of the stream after capture adds
more than 1s of latency.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/6543>
Never is useful for some RTSP servers that report plain garbage both via
RTCP SR and RTP-Info, for example.
NTP is useful if synchronization should only ever happen based on RTCP
SR or NTP-64 RTP header extension.
Also slightly change the behaviour of always/initial to take RTP-Info
based synchronization into account too. It's supposed to give the same
values as the RTCP SR and is available earlier, so will generally cause
fewer synchronization glitches if it's made use of.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/6543>
Instead of switching on the very first stream, require that all streams
have switched before switching to the different synchronization
mechanism.
Without this there will be a noticeable gap during the switch. E.g. when
going from RTP-Info to NTP-based association, first the first stream
only would get an offset, then the first two, ... then all of them.
Depending on the order of streams this will cause a lot of changes in
ts-offset during the transition.

Previously these parameters were randomly changed in the body of the
function to avoid having to declare a new variable, which made the code
very hard to follow. By marking them as const this won't be possible
anymore in the future.
Also the RTP clock-base (RTP time from RTSP RTP-Info) is an unsigned
64 bit integer as it's an extended RTP timestamp.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/6543>
Both were entangled previously and very hard to follow what happens
under which conditions. Now as a very first step the code decides which
of the two cases it is going to apply, and then proceeds accordingly.
This also avoids calculating completely invalid values along the way and
even printing them int the debug output.
Also improve debug output in various places.
This shouldn't cause any behaviour changes.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/6543>
This simplifies the code as it's a much simpler case than the normal
inter-stream synchronization, and interleaving it with that only
reduces readability of the code.
Also improve some debug output in this code path.

Adds a separate vtenc_h265a element (with a _hw variant as usual) for the HEVCWithAlpha codec type.
Decided to go with a separate element to not break existing uses of the normal HEVC encoder.
The preserve_alpha property is still only used for ProRes, no need for it here because we explicitly say we want alpha
when using the new element.
For now, the HEVCWithAlpha has an issue where it does not throttle the amount of input frames queued internally.
I added a quick workaround where encode_frame() will block until enqueue_frame() callback notifies it that some space
has been freed up in the internal queue. The limit was set to 5, which should be enough I guess? Hopefully this is not
too prone to race conditions.

When we are dealing with parsed inputs (i.e. using identity), we need to ensure
that we have a valid stream collection (and therefore DBCollection) before
anything flows dowsntream.
In those cases, we hold onto those events until we get such a collection.
Fixes#3356
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/6774>
This commit separates collection and selections into a new separate structure:
DecodebinCollection.
This provides a much cleaner/saner way of dealing with collections being
updated, gapless playback, etc...
There is now a list of DecodebinCollection in flight, of which two are special:
* input_collection, the currently inputted/merged collection
* output_collection, the currently active collection on the output of multiqueue
Handling GST_EVENT_SELECT_STREAMS is split, by looking for the collection to
which it applies. And the requested streams are stored in it. IIF that
collection is output_collection we can do the switch, else it will be updated
when it becomes active.
Detecting which collection/selection is active is done by looking at the
GST_EVENT_STREAM_START on the output of the multiqueue.

* Move the handling of GST_EVENT_STREAM_START on a slot to a separate function

Conceptually identical to the present signal of d3d11videosink.
This signal will be emitted with current render target
(i.e., swapchain backbuffer) and command queue. Signal handler
can record GPU commands for an overlay image or to blend
an image to the render target.
In addition to d3d12 resources, videosink will send
d3d11 and d2d resources depending on "overlay-mode"
property, so that signal handler can render by using
preferred/required DirectX API.

The idea of using separate command queue per videosink was that
swapchain is bound to a command queue and we need to flush the
command queue when window size is changed. But the separate

On various 32 bit systems, time_t is actually 64 bits while long is
still only 32 bits. The macro would wrongly trigger its assertion in
this case if a value with more than 68 years worth of seconds is
converted.
Examples are various newer 32 bit platforms and old ones that are
compiled with -D_TIME_BITS=64.
Also statically assert that time_t is either 32 or 64 bits. Other values
might need adjustments in the macro.

From the spec (chapter 34, v1.3.283):
````
UNORM: the components are unsigned normalized values in the range [0, 1]
SRGB: the R, G and B components are unsigned normalized value that represent
values using sRGB nonlinear encoding, while the A component (if one
exists) is a regular unsigned normalized value
```
The difference is the storage encoding, the first one is aimed for image
transfers, while the second is for shaders, mostly in the swapchain stage in the
pipeline, and it's done automatically if needed [1].
As far as I have checked, other frameworks (FFmpeg, GTK+), when import or export
images from/to Vulkan, use exclusively UNORM formats, while SRGB formats are
ignored.
My conclusion is that Vulkan formats are related on how bits are stored in
memory rather their transfer functions (colorimetry).
This patch does two interrelated changes:
1. It swaps certain color format maps to try first, in both
gst_vulkan_format_from_video_info() and gst_vulkan_format_from_video_info_2(),
the UNORM formats, when comparing its usage, and later check for SRGB.
2. It removes the code that check for colorimetry in
gst_vulkan_format_from_video_info_2(), since it not storage related.

To simplify the description, I'm assuming we only have two streams: video and audio.
For the video stream, we have the following events :
- STREAM_START => stream->wait set to true
- NEW_SEGMENT(1) => blocked waiting in gst_stream_synchronizer_wait
- FLUSH_START => unblocked
- FLUSH_STOP => stream->wait reset to false
- NEW_SEGMENT(2) => not waiting, since stream->wait is false
Then for the audio stream, we have the following events :
- STREAM_START => stream->wait set to true
- NEW_SEGMENT(2) => blocked waiting in gst_stream_synchronizer_wait for ever.
Note: The first NEW_SEGMENT event and the FLUSH_START, FLUSH_STOP events of the audio stream
are dropped before being received by the streamsynchronizer element, because the decodebin audio pad src
is not yet linked to the playsink audio pad sink.
To fix this deadlock, we don't reset stream->wait to false in the FLUSH_STOP event when it is not
waiting for the EOS of the other streams.

In some cases you want to ensure that a specific element factory is used

'standard' variant of prores video stream.

The encoder can specify the a preferred_output_delay value to get better throughput
performance. The higher delay may get better HW performance, but it may increases
the encoder and pipeline latency.
When the output queue length is smaller than preferred_output_delay, the encoder
will not block to waiting for the encoding output. It will continue to prepare and
send more commands to GPU, which may improve the encoder throughput performance.

This counter is incremented once for every segment, meaning it would
e.g. overflow after 24 days when using 1ms segments. Once that happens,
completely wrong positions are reported and invalid memory is handed out
for writing/reading the next segments.
As the affected variables are unfortunately part of the public API of
the struct, a second set of variables is added together with accessor
functions and both variables are kept in sync for backwards
compatibility.
All existing users of the two variables are moved to the new ones but
external code might still run into the overflow.
This also slightly breaks API as external code updating the variables
will have no effect anymore but the only known user of this is
pulsesink.

If the muxer times out because of the latency deadline it can happen

This makes sure that for sparse streams (KLV, DVB subtitles, ...) the
muxer does not wait until the next buffer is available for them but
times out on the latency deadline and outputs data.
For non-live pipelines it will still be necessary for upstream to

The iteration itself makes sense.. but it was stopping at the "input" frame and

Certain V4L2 fourccs don't (yet) have DRM counter parts, in which case
we can't create DMA_DRM caps for them. This is usually the case for
specific tilings, which are represented as modifiers for DMA formats.
While using these tilings is generally preferable - because of e.g.
lower memory usage - it can result in additional conversion steps when
interacting with DMA based APIs such as GL, Vulkan or KMS. In such cases
using a DMA compatible format usually ends up being the better option.
Before the addition of DMA_DRM caps, this was what playbin3 ended up
requesting in various cases - e.g. prefering NV12 over NV12_4L4 - but
the addition of DMA_DRM caps seems to confuse the selection logic.
As a simple and quite robust solution, assume that peers supporting
DMA_DRM caps always prefer these and reorder the caps accordingly.
In the future we plan to have a translation layer for cases where
there is a matching fourcc+modifier pair for a V4L2 fourcc, ensuring
optimal results.

Doing it in gst_play_new() means that bindings that directly call
