Apart from the obvious drawbacks of hardcoding, the drawback here was
that, if we subtracted 2 frames (instead of 2.6) from the target running
time, we'd request the next keyframe a bit too far into the future,
which would make our files split at the wrong position.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=797293
For drop-frame framerates, when the expected next max timecode wraps
around at the end of the day, we have to subtract the offset of the
daily jam, otherwise we end up with a duration that's a few frames too
long.

The behaviour of split-now is to output the current GOP after
starting a new file.
The newly-added split-after signal will output the current GOP
to the old file if possible once a new GOP is opened.

The stream context was holding a reference to the
internal queue and pads, with pad probes that were
in turn holding references to the stream context.
This lead to a leak if the request pads weren't explicitly
released.

When handling input with timestamps that repeat, sometimes
splitmuxsink would get confused and ignore a keyframe.
The logic in question is a holdover from before the cmd queue
moved the file cutting to the multiqueue output side and made
it deterministic, so it's no longer needed on the input
here.

This mode is useful for muxers that can take a long time to finalize a
file. Instead of blocking the whole upstream pipeline while the muxer is
doing its stuff, we can unlink it and spawn a new muxer+sink combination
to continue running normally.
This requires us to receive the muxer and sink (if needed) as factories,
optionally accompanied by their respective properties structures. Also
added the muxer-added and sink-added signals, in case custom code has to
be called for them.

It can happen during teardown that the reference context becomes NULL.
In that case, trying to send the fragment-opened-closed message would
lead to a crash.
With this the muxer is not set to NULL after each segment but instead
only flush events are sent to it to reset the EOS state.
As a result, the muxer will keep stream state and e.g. mpegtsmux will
keep the packet continuity counter continuous between segments as needed
by hlssink2.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=794816
76e458a119 changed the conditions from
"queued > threshold" to "queued >= threshold", which broke hlssink2 and
resulting in too small fragments being created although keyframes would
be at *exactly* the configured threshold.

If codec_data is changed, the stream is no longer valid.
Rather than keeping running when refusing new caps,
this patch send a warning to the bus.
Also fix up splitmuxsink to ignore this warning while changing caps.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=790000
If the use-robust-muxing property is set, check if the
assigned muxer has reserved-max-duration and
reserved-duration-remaining properties, and if so set
the configured maximum duration to the reserved-max-duration
property, and monitor the remaining space to start
a new file if the reserved header space is about to run out -
even though it never ought to.
Switching to a new fragment because the input caps have
changed didn't properly end the previous file. Use the normal
EOS sequence to ensure that happens. Add a test that it works.
They can cause us to deadlock, while we're waiting for a new frame and
upstream is waiting for the allocation query to be answered before
sending a frame
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=783753
If a non-reference stream is behind the reference stream by an amount of
time smaller than the alignment threshold (in nsec), it counts as being
after it.

... unless the muxer uses the same audio pad template name as
splitmuxsink. We can't request a pad called "audio_0" on a muxer that
wants pads to be "sink_%d".
Majorly change the way that splitmuxsink collects
incoming data and sends it to the output, so that it
makes all decisions about when / where to split files
on the input side.
Use separate queues for each stream, so they can be
grown individually and kept as small as possible.
This removes raciness I observed where sometimes
some data would end up put in a different output file
over multiple runs with the same input.
Also fixes hangs with input queues getting full
and causing muxing to stall out.
Add a new signal for formatting the filename, which receives
a GstSample containing the first buffer from the reference
stream that will be muxed into that file.
Useful for creating filenames that are based on the
running time or other attributes of the buffer.
To make it work, opening of files and setting filenames is
now deferred until there is some data to write to it,
which also requires some changes to how async state changes
and gap events are handled.
splitmuxsink requests pad from element using pad template like "video_%u", "audio_%u" and "sink_%d". This is true for most of the muxers.
But splitmuxsink not able to request pad to flvmux as flvmux has "audio" and "video" as pad templates.
fix: splitmuxsink should fallback to "audio" and "video" when template not found.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=774507
Do not use last buffer TS + buffer duration because buffer duration
might be inaccurate, especially for frame rates like 30fps where a
rounding error is observed.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=773785
Commit 83e718 added a pad template to splitmux request
pads, which means that GstElement now releases the pads on
dispose, but after having removed all elements in the bin
and unlinked them. Make sure we can handle cleanup in that case
without throwing assertions.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=773784
The pacing of the overall muxing is controlled
by the video GOPs arriving, so we can only handle
1 video stream, and the request pad is named accordingly.
Ignore a request for a 2nd video pad if there's already
an active one.
On 32-bit x86: gstsplitmuxsink.c:966:31: warning: format ‘%u’ expects
argument of type ‘unsigned int’, but argument 9 has type
‘guint64 {aka long long unsigned int}’
This reverts commit fa008f271a.
async-handling in GstBin causes the pipeline to spin at 100%
CPU as the top-level pipeline tries to change that state
to PLAYING constantly. This is a workaround for a core
problem, essentially, but an improvement in this case for now.
After dropping the splitmux lock, re-check the state,
don't just fall through and sleep unconditionally,
as we may have already missed the wakeup.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=769514
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.
