We have to calculate from the segment.stop, not the segment.start, as
playback goes from stop to start. This fix works around another race

My collection leak fix 83f30627cd
introduced a crash in this scenario: audiotestsrc ! decodebin3 ! fakesink
The reference handling of collection in decodebin3 wasn't very clear and
my attempt to fix the leak introduced a regression where we went one
reference short in some other scenarios.
Fixing this by:
- Giving a strong reference to DecodebinInput making things clearer
- Fixing get_merged_collection() which was sometimes returning an
existing reference and sometimes a new one.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=769080
The collection owned by GstDecodebin3 has to be unreffed when disposing.
gst_event_new_stream_collection() doesn't consume the collection passed
to it so no need to give it an extra ref.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=768811
MultiQueueSlot owns a ref on the active stream so it should release it
when being freed.
DecodebinInputStream owns ref on the active and pending stream so they
should be dropped when being freed.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=768811
gst_stream_get_caps() returns a reffed caps.
The caps passed to gst_query_set_caps_result() are not transfered.
The caps in gst_parse_pad_stream_start_event() was either acquired
using gst_pad_get_current_caps() which returns a new ref or
explicitly reffed.

* decodebin3 and playbin3 have the same purpose as the decodebin and
playbin elements, except make usage of more 1.x features and the new
GstStream API. This allows them to be more memory/cpu efficient.
* parsebin is a new element that demuxers/depayloads/parses an incoming
stream and exposes elementary streams. It is used by decodebin3.
It also automatically creates GstStream and GstStreamCollection for
elements that don't natively create them and sends the corresponding
events and messages
* Any application using playbin can use playbin3 by setting the env
variable USE_PLAYBIN3=1 without reconfiguration/recompilation.
We take a ref before removing which was never freeded.
The element is still alive anyway because the group has its own ref as
well.

When we initialize an element in decodebin, we 1) set it to PAUSED and
push sticky events on its sinkpad to trigger negotiation 2) block its
src pad(s) to detect CAPS events. We can't block before 1) as that
would lead to a deadlock.
It's possible (and common) tho that an element configures its srcpad
during 1) and before 2). Therefore before this change we would
typically block and expose an element's pad only once the element
output its first buffer, triggering sticky events to be resent. One
consequence of this behaviour is that it sometimes broke
renegotiation.
With this change now we consider a pad ready to be exposed when it's
->blocked or has fixed caps (which were set before we could block it).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=765456
If we are configured to use buffering and there is no demuxer in the chain, we
still want a multiqueue, otherwise we will ignore the use-buffering property.
In that case, we will insert a multiqueue after the parser or decoder - not
elsewhere, otherwise we won't have timestamps.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=764948
When blocking the subtitle pad, it's expected that stream-start
is the first event, and that it can precede caps arriving on the
peer pad - in fact the caps can only have arrived on the peer
pad when it was pre-primed with sticky events previously.
Instead, just pass the stream-start and don't block, because
stream-start is sticky anyway.
There's a small window between decodebin choosing a buffering level
to post and another thread choosing a different buffering level
where things can race. Close that window by holding a new lock
that's only for posting buffering messages - like what was done
in multiqueue.

Due to transient locked state during autoplugging, some elements might be
ignored by the GstBin::change_state() and might still be running. Which could
then cause pad-added and similar accessing decodebin state that does not exist
anymore, and crash.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=763625
In other places we lock it the other way around, leading to possible
deadlocks. Also this will deadlock if analyze_pad() causes a new element to be
autoplugged that adds new pads on itself when its state is changed.

When getting caps of the decode chain, in get_topology, the caps are being
checked if fixed or not. But get_topology will be called when the decode is
chain is being exposed and hence it will always be fixed. Hence removing the
check for fixed caps. Removing gst_pad_get_current_caps for the chain->pad, as
get_pad_caps will again call the same api.
And get_topology can return NULL value if currently shutting down the
pipeline, which on being passed to create message will result in assertion
error. Check if topology is valid before using it
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=755918
analyze_new_pad() can return a new decode chain, which might have a new
GstDecodePad in the end. We should use those two for expose_pad() and not the
original ones that were passed to analyze_new_pad().
This fails when having a demuxer element that has raw pads immediately or
if a decoder with raw caps is after an adaptive demuxer.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=760949
[..] when resetting group start time. In GES, we are usually connected
to the streamsynchronizer on one audio and one video pad.
When seeking the timeline, both nlecompositions often output their flush_start
before any of them has output its flush_stop.
The current code, when receiving the first flush stop was using the
running time of the start of the second composition, which could
be pretty much anything, and means nothing at that point.
This patch is thread-safe, as STREAM_SYNCHRONIZER_LOCK is taken
both when setting flushing and when checking it.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=750013
When blocking input pads, we also need to properly set the appropriate
pending flag.
Without this, when switching stream types after initial configuration
(like going from Audio+Video to Audio+Video+Sub) playsink would never
wait for *all* input streams to be blocked (it would just wait for the
new input pad (text in this case) to be blocked).
Since the reconfiguration might introduce unlinking/relinking of elements,
we need to ensure that *ALL* input streams are blocked.
Failure to do so would result in having some input streams pushing data
to inactive elements (returning GST_FLOW_FLUSHING) or unlinked pads
(returning GST_FLOW_NOT_LINKED).
A later optimization could involve only blocking the input pads that
might be involved in reconfiguration. But better be safe than sorry for
now :)
Elements usually require that all fields on their caps are present
on the fixed caps they receive. Using intersection won't verify it,
resort to using is_subset() checks.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=760477
Those accept caps are actually checking if downstream supports
some particular caps to check if it need to negotiate a different
format. Checking only the next element with accept-caps is not enough
to guarantee that it is supported.
Using a caps query makes it obtain the supported caps for downstream
as a whole instead of only the next element.
The filters' floating references are sinked during set_property() already,
which means that GstBin takes a new reference when adding the filter to it.
Get rid of the additional reference after adding the filter to the bin.
Unconditionally adding the template caps when proxying the caps query will play
havoc with decoders that attempt to choose an output format based on some caps
features. Creating a sink that does not include those caps features and a
decoder/parser/etc that preferentially chooses some specific caps feature when
available, will always return the decoder/parser/etc template caps and choose a
feature that downstream will be unable to support.
Fix by limiting the addition of the template caps to when the result is actually
empty.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=758212
This reverts commit 77dc09c3a9.
It can cause the FLUSH_START/STOP events to go to the sink elements, which
then causes state changes and various other problems. We shouldn't really
flush downstream here, the idea is to do *draining*.
Apart from that the testcase for the original bug here works without this
commit now.
Otherwise we'll remove that element while keeping its buffering message in our
list, and because of that never ever report buffering 100% as that element
will always be at a lower percentage.
This fixes e.g. seeking over Period boundaries in DASH and various other
issues when buffering happens between group switches.
Also use a new mutex for protecting the buffering messages. The object lock is
already used by gst_object_has_as_ancestor() and we need to use it now for
checking if the buffering message sender has the to-be-removed element as
ancestor.
Make sure that any access to the GstDecodeBin's decode_chain
field is protected using the EXPOSE_LOCK. Also add a simple
reference counter to the GstDecodeChain structure so that when
the type_found signal fires it can hold onto the decode chain
even while the EXPOSE_LOCK is not held. This should fix a
race condition if the type_found signal fires right in the
middle of a state change that messes with the same decode
chain.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=755260
Just setting the ghostpad as flushing wasn't enough. It needs to be
consistent on the internal proxypad also, otherwise you end up in
situations where:
* a pending buffer on the target pad triggers the sticky event
propagation
* the default implementation sees that the proxypad is not flushing,
so it tries to push it to the other pad (the actual ghostpad)
* the ghostpad is flushing, so returns FALSE
* the push_event function sees that pushing the event failed...
* ... and pending buffer push returns GST_FLOW_ERROR, instead of
GST_FLOW_FLUSHING
By using gst_pad_set_active(FALSE), we ensure that both the ghostpad
and the proxypad are flushing/deactivated. The situation above will
no longer occur, and a GST_FLOW_FLUSHING will be returned.
This makes sure that they will always get SEEK events, even if we're currently
in the middle of a group switch (i.e. switching to another
representation/bitrate/etc).

As stated in GST_PAD_PROBE_HANDLED's documentation, we are

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=754459
Send event directly to playsink instead of letting GstBin iterate
over all sink elements. The latter might send the event multiple times
in case the SEEK causes a reconfiguration of the pipeline, as can easily
happen with adaptive streaming demuxers.
What would then happen is that the iterator would be reset, we send the
event again, and on the second time it will fail in the majority of cases
because the pipeline is still being reconfigured
The logic introduced by
[d50b713: decodebin: set the decode pad target before setting elements to PAUSED]
to expose pads would only ever be able to possibly expose one (the last) pad per element.
Make it so that any exposable pads are able to be exposed rather than just the
last pad returned by connect_element.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=742924
In the case of analyzing a demuxer chain, analyze_new_pad may create
a new GstDecodeChain. This was not propagated to the calling function which as
of [d50b713f decodebin: set the decode pad target before setting elements to PAUSED]
is now required to be able to expose the correct pad.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=742924
In case of reconfiguration, text_pad should be re-connected with
stream synchronizer sink pad. Otherwise we'll leave an unlinked pad around if

Otherwise caps and context queries will disappear into nothing and therefore
fail. With autoplug-query now actually working, users (such as playbin) can

It's only relevant for each group, and by storing it in the group
we have locking and everything else like for the other buffering-related
variables. Locking looks a bit fishy still, but it was like that for a long
time already so shouldn't be worse than before.
Overview:
There are some of interleaved streams which has long-term location of audio data.
It mean the audio data is located far away more than multiqueue size.
In this case, because of multiqueue overrun, the pipeline is stopped.
To prevent hanging-like state, the decodebin needs to handle the queue size.
Caused:
The multiqueue size is not enough, the pipeline will stay being stalled status
and decodebin cannot complete to build decode chain.
In this issue file, decodebin did not receive no_more_pads signal or audio data yet.
Steps to Reproduce:
play the high-resolution(4K file) files or some streaming media(push mode).
Actual Results:
There is no audio or subtitle.
We can see only video or infinite loading.
Resolution:
Decodebin detect this problem, and add extra buffer size to multiqueue.
The multiqueue is larger than before, the next data can be pushed the downstream element.
Additional Information:
The max-preroll extra buffer size is set 8MB.
We can use total pre-roll buffer 10MB.
Only first overrun callback can handle multiqueue size.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=733235
When an upstream element wants to flush downstream, we need to take
all chains/groups into consideration.
To that effect, when a FLUSH_START event is seen, after having it
sent downstream we mark all those chains/groups as "drained" (as if
they had seen a EOS event on the endpads).
When a FLUSH_STOP event is received, we check if we need to switch groups.
This is done by checking if there are next groups. If so, we will switch
over to the latest next_group. The actual switch will be done when
that group is blocked.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=606382
When upstream events/queries reach sinkpads of unlinked groups (i.e.
no longer linked to the upstream demuxer), this patch attempts to find
the linked group and forward it upstream of that group.
This is done by adding upstream event/query probes on new group sinkpads
and then:
* Checking if the pad is linked or not (has a peer or not)
* If there is a peer, just let the event/query follow through normally
* If there is no peer, we find a pad to which to proxy it and return
GST_PROBE_HANDLED if it succeeded (allowing the event/query to be properly
returned to the initial called)
Note that this is definitely not thread-safe for the time being
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=606382
deadend_details need not be returned when the pad is not a deadend.

When switching to a new chain it might be that this new chain
is not yet ready to be exposed so check it before exposing.
Can happen with mpegts that might delay adding pads or pushing data
until it has found the PMT/PAT/PCR and that may take a while depending
on the stream.
It happened frequently with HLS:

If the sink has properties named volume and mute, we have no idea about their
meaning. The streamvolume interface standardizes the meaning.
In the case of osxaudiosink for example, the current volume property has a
range of 0.0 to 1.0, but we need 0.0 to 10.0 or similar. Also osxaudiosink
has no mute property. As such, the volume element should be used here instead.

There is the GstVideoMultiviewMode enum and the
GstVideoMultiviewFramePacking, which is a subset of the
multiview modes, with the same values as the corresponding
types from the full enum. Do some casts and use the right
times to avoid implicitly using/passing GstVideoMultiviewFramePacking
when a GstVideoMultiviewMode is needed.
Add GstVideoMultiviewFramePacking enum, and the
video-multiview-mode and video-multiview-flags
properties on playbin.
Use a pad probe to replace the multiview information in
video caps sent out from uridecodebin.
This is a part implementation only - for full
correctness, it should also modify caps in caps events,
accept-caps and allocation queries.

When traversing the color balance element channel list to find the one that
matches with the playsink proxy, the assignation was set to iterator of the

mapping to the channel of the color balance element is fixed.

when text playbin is not enabled in the beginning, then
video_srcpad_stream_synchronizer gets linked to videochain->sinkpad
and when we try to enable text bin during play, since it is already linked to videochain,

before linking to text chain
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=748908
This part of pipeline is:
tee name=t ! visualizationbin ! streamsynchronizer name=s
t. ! s.
streamsynchronizer might block and it could starve the visualization
branch of the pipeline when it is enabled.
The visualization bin has queues internally but the other branch
that links the audiotee directly to the synchronizer is vulnerable
to block. Adding a queue between "t. ! s." fixes deadlocks.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=749676
Upstream might want to use it to properly map timestamps to running/stream
times, if we just override it with 0 synchronization will be just wrong.
For this we remove some old 0.10 code related to segment accumulation, and

(aka segment.base offset) manually now.

When shutting down the chain, we can get a deadlock when removing
a pad, if that chain was being busy streaming but blocked (eg, while
waiting for a queue to have free space).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=746480
If a new pad is added after playbin has been put to READY/NULL it
should ignore new pads as it is shutting down.
This can happen when the pipeline fails to preroll (is still in READY)
and the user gives up on waiting or an error that doesn't reach
the demuxer occurs (on some event handling) and it will continue to
work and exposing pads while playbin has been put to NULL.
Without this check an input-selector is created and set to PAUSED
state, preventing playbin from properly shutting down in case it
has data blocked inside it.
This fixes a race where the use-buffering property on a multiqueue was
set before the queue depth was changed from it's high preroll limits to
lower playback limits. This resulted in buffering messages being emitted
by the multiqueue in the short window between use-buffering being
set and the queue depth being reset.

The variables could have changed when the lock was released

When we modify a GList (via g_list_delete_link), always reassign the
new head to the original GList. Otherwise we end up with
filtered_errors being corrupt (the head might have been the element

This function is static, and only ever called with the expose lock
taken. It thus has no reason to take this lock itself.

Otherwise if there are multiple parsers we would most likely break negotiation
of the stream-format/alignment wanted by the decoders as parsers generally
support all possible stream-formats and alignments.
If caps on a newly added pad are NULL, analyze_new_pad will try to
acquire the chain lock to add a probe to the pad so the chain can
be built later. This comes from the streaming thread, in response
to headers or other buffers causing this pad to be added, so the
stream lock is taken.
Meanwhile, another thread might be destroying the chain from a
downward state change. This will cause the chain to be freed with
the chain lock taken, and some elements are set to NULL here, which
can include the parser. This causes pad deactivation, which tries
to take the element's pad's stream lock, deadlocking.
Fix this by keeping track of which elements need setting to NULL,
and only do this after the chain lock is released. Only the chain
manipulation needs to be locked, not the elements' state changes.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=741355
There was a deadlock between a thread changing decodebin/demuxer
state from PAUSED to READY, and another thread pushing data
when starting.
From the stack trace at
https://bug741355.bugzilla-attachments.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=292471,
I deduce the following is happening, though I did not reproduce the
problem so I'm not sure this patch fixes it.
The streaming thread (thread 2 in that stack trace) takes the demuxer's
sink pad's stream lock in gst_ogg_demux_perform_seek_pull and will
activate a new chain. This ends up causing the expose lock being taken
in _pad_added_cb in decodebin.
Meanwhile, a state changed is triggered on thread 1, which takes the
expose lock in decodebin in gst_decode_bin_change_state, then frees
the previous chain, which ends up calling gst_pad_stop_task on the
demuxer's task, which in turn takes the demuxer's sink pad's stream
lock, deadlocking as both threads are now waiting for each other.

Wait in the event function when EOS is received until all pads are EOS

Also send a new GAP event for EOS pads from the event function whenever

to allow sinks to pre-roll again, as they did not receive EOS yet because
we blocked that, but also will never get data again.

Before we were setting them to PAUSED and (much) later connecting to
their source pad caps notify signal.
There was a race where that demuxer was pushing a caps and later a buffer
on its source pad when we were not even connected to its source pad caps notify
signal leading to decodebin missing the information and not keeping on
building the pipeline on CAPS event thus the demuxer was posting an ERROR
(not linked) message on the bus. This need to be done for 'simple
demuxers' because those have one ALWAYS source pad, not like usual demuxers
that have several dynamic source pads.
A "simple demuxer" is a demuxer that has one and only one ALWAYS source
pad.

3) caps_notify_cb would continue autoplugging
4) caps would flow downstream, the last pad would get exposed
5) we were still not done sending the sticky events
Taking the stream lock on the new element's sinkpad and only
releasing it when sticky events have all been sent prevents
the caps from reaching the source pad of the element before
we're all set.

Otherwise the following can happen:
1. set mute=true
2. play media1 (Ok)
3. play media without audio (audiochain removed)
4. play media2 (audiochain created, mute=*false*)

If there are two parser elements available for the same media format,
then decodebin is autoplugging an extra capsfilter and parser irrespective
of caps and rank. So restrict the decodebin from autoplugging multiple parser
elements back to back in adjacent positions with in a single DecodeChain
for the same media format.
