Add check to make sure gst-plugin-scanner really gets installed where
we will look for it later, ie. paths and prefixes are set at configure
time and not specified via make.
Fixes#609941.
Adds a new function to GstByteWriter that writes
a constant value to a memory area (aka memset).
Useful for adding padding to buffers.
Also updates .def file and docs.
API: gst_byte_writer_fill()
Typefind might mess up pads modes (pull/push) if a
downstream element is plugged and its pads activated
in 'step 2' of typefind pads activation.
This happens because the following steps don't check
if we already emitted typefound due to upstream setting
caps on buffers being pulled in the typefind helpers.
Avoid that by checking if typefound is already emmited.
Fixes#608036
Updating the segment values must only be done while holding the
STREAM_LOCK and OBJECT_LOCK. This means, reading can be done as
long as one of them is held, not both, which removes some lock-unlock
blocks from performance critical code paths.
Also document, that gst_base_src_set_format() *must* be called in
states <= READY and add an assertion for this. Changing the format
later will completely mess up the segment information.
The problem lies in the fact that multiqueue will now operate somewhat
similarly to the flow aggregation logic of demuxers and therefore
will stopp whenever all downstream pads return NOT_LINKED and/or
UNEXPECTED and there's no more buffers to push.
The latest commits should not affect any regular use-case, but the bug
report will be kept open so the previous behaviour can be re-established
if needed.
Fixes#609486
When a downstream element returns GST_FLOW_UNEXPECTED we want to:
* let the dataqueue task running
* forward the flow return upstream.
This allows upstream elements to push EOS, and have that EOS event come
downstream.
Fixes#609274
gst_byte_writer_reset_and_get_buffer wasn't declared
in .h, instead there was _reset_and_get_data_as_buffer.
Replace it with the real function name, that is smaller
and matches gst_byte_writer_free_and_get_buffer

Late g_thread_init() is fine with newer GLib versions and done automatically
from g_type_init() there, so don't warn if the application hasn't called
g_thread_init() yet when gst_init() is called with new GLib versions.
Fixes#608398.
If we force -DG_THREADS_MANDATORY onto apps, then g_thread_supported()
will always evaluate to TRUE, so the typical thread initialisation
boilerplate code if (!g_thread_supported()) g_thread_init(NULL); will
no longer work, and the threading system not be initialised and us
printing a warning in gst_init. This may be fine in most cases, since
late initialisation is allowed and automatically done in g_type_init()
since GLib 2.23.2, but let's be cautious and only use this define when
compiling GStreamer itself.
See #608398.
Refactor the code to take the current start_time when going to PAUSED.
Make sure we also call the start_time update code after we chained up to the
parent bin.
Fixes#607842
The stream status message object may be of a non-GObject type, e.g.
G_TYPE_POINTER (see GstAudioSrc), so print that properly instead
of assuming the value holds an object.
When we receive an UNEXPECTED flowreturn from downstream, we must not shutdown
the pushing thread because upstream will at some point push an EOS that we still
need to push further downstream.
To achieve this, convert the UNEXPECTED return value to OK. Add a fixme so that
we implement the right logic to propagate the flowreturn upstream at some point.
Also clean up the unit test a little.
Fixes#608136
