Add a new property "do-aggregate"* to the H.264 RTP payloader which
enables STAP-A aggregation as per [RFC-6184][1]. With aggregation enabled,
packets are bundled instead of sent immediately, up until the MTU size.
Bundles also end at access unit boundaries or when packets have to be
fragmented.
*: The property-name is kept generic since it might apply more widely,
e.g. STAP-B or MTAP.

In the case of reordered packets, calculating skew would cause
pts values to be off. Only calculate skew when packets come
in as expected. Also, late RTX packets should not trigger
clock skew adjustments.
Fixes#612
If, say, a rtx-packet arrives really late, this can have a dramatic
effect on the jitterbuffer clock-skew logic, having it being reset
and losing track of the current dts-to-pts calculations, directly affecting
the packets that arrive later.
This is demonstrated in the test, where a RTX packet is pushed in really
late, and without this patch the last packet will have its PTS affected
by this, where as a late RTX packet should be redundant information, and
not affect anything.
This patch corrects the delay set on EXPECTED timers that are added when
processing gaps. Previously the delay could be too small so that
'timout + delay' was much less than 'now', causing the following retries
to be scheduled too early. (They were sent earlier than
rtx-retry-timeout after the previous timeout.)
Turns out that the "big-gap"-logic of the jitterbuffer has been horribly
broken.
For people using lost-events, an RTP-stream with a gap in sequencenumbers,
would produce exactly that many lost-events immediately.
So if your sequence-numbers jumped 20000, you would get 20000 lost-events
in your pipeline...
The test that looks after this logic "test_push_big_gap", basically
incremented the DTS of the buffer equal to the gap that was introduced,
so that in fact this would be more of a "large pause" test, than an
actual gap/discontinuity in the sequencenumbers.
Once the test was modified to not increment DTS (buffer arrival time) with
a similar gap, all sorts of crazy started happening, including adding
thousands of timers, and the logic that should have kicked in, the
"handle_big_gap_buffer"-logic, was not called at all, why?
Because the number max_dropout is calculated using the packet-rate, and
the packet-rate logic would, in this particular test, report that
the new packet rate was over 400000 packets per second!!!
I believe the right fix is to don't try and update the packet-rate if
there is any jumps in the sequence-numbers, and only do these calculations
for nice, sequential streams.
sethostent() seems to be using a global state and we endup with leaks from
that API when called through shout_init(). We had the option to only
ignore the shout case, but the impression is that if we have shout and
another sethostend user, as it's a global state, we may endup with a
different stack trace for the same leak. So in the end, we just ignore
memory allocated by sethostent in general.
In this change we now protect the internal srcpads list using the
stream lock and limit usage of the internal stream lock to
preventing data flowing on the other src pad type while creating
and signalling the new pad.
This fixes a deadlock with RTPBin shutdown lock. These two locks would
end up being taken in two different order, which caused a deadlock. More
generally, we should not rely on a streamlock when handling out-of-band
data, so as a side effect, we should not take a stream lock when
iterating internal links.
We recently added code to remove outdate NACK to avoid using bandwidth
for packet that have no chance of arriving on time. Though, this had a
side effect, which is that it was to get an early RTCP packet with no
feedback into it. This was pretty useless but also had a side effect,
which is that the RTX RTT value would never be updated. So we we stared
having late RTX request due to high RTT, we'd never manage to recover.
This fixes the regression by making sure we keep at least one NACK in
this situation. This is really light on the bandwidth and allow for
quick recover after the RTT have spiked higher then the jitterbuffer
capacity.
Right now, we may call on-new-ssrc after we have processed the first
RTP packet. This prevents properly configuring the source as some
property like "probation" are copied internally for use as a
decreasing counter. For this specific property, it prevents the
application from disabling probation on auxiliary sparse stream.
Probation is harmful on sparse streams since the probation algorithm
assume frequent and contiguous RTP packets.
We used to split the NACK if a smaller seqnum of a range of seqnum was
submited. This test also make sure that the three operations (append,
prepend, update) works properly.
Calling rtp_session_send_rtcp before marking the source as requiring a
pli/fir/nack meant the rtcp_thread could be scheduled and start running
before the source was updated. This meant the request would not be sent
early but instead was transmitted with the next regular RTCP packet.
Add test for nack generation.
Add a test to verify that stats about sent and received packets are
correct even when using buffer lists.
NOTE: the newly introduced get_session_source_stats() selects the
desired source (sender or receiver) by filtering them by type (using the
get_sender parameter) rather than by ssrc because this simplifies the
code and it's good enough for testing purposes as there is usually one
source per type in the test setup.
Filtering by ssrc would have required handling asynchronous signals like
"on-new-sender-ssrc", with the relative locking, just to retrieve the
actual ssrc of the sender.
The tests create a buffer list and then use the chain_list callback to
verify that the correct packets have been pushed.
Move the creation and validation code next to each other so that the
reader can more easily understand what is going on.
While at it add some comments to introduce the two related functions.
Make it possible to differentiate between the position in the list and
the packet index in the global structures in check_packet, in some
future case the list may change, in case some element removes a buffer
from the list, and the two indices may not coincide.
Port the rtpbin_buffer_list test to GStreamer 1.0 and re-enable it.
Some other changes include:
- the check on the caps has been moved from the buffer level to the
pad level;
- remove underscore prefix from static functions names, this is not
idiomatic in C and rarely used in the other tests;
- the unused header_buffer variable has been removed;
- check_group() has been renamed to check_packet() because in
GStreamer 1.0 there is no concept of "group" anymore, the comments
have also been updated to reflect this.
Tests might take a bit longer, esp. when run under valgrind
and/or they're running on the CI with other things going on,
so let's just bump the timeout to something higher and let
the test runner time us out if needed.
Allow fallback to orc subproject if any.
Additionally 'dependencies' keyword is removed from find_library,
because it's invalid keyword for find_library.
False positive for the three variables but some warnings like:
../tests/check/elements/matroskamux.c:875:10:
warning: 'chapters_offset' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
*index = chapters_offset;
~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The above is false positive as there is a gboolean to check if it was
initialized or not (found_chapters_declaration).
This reverts commit dcd3ce9751.
This functionality was implemented for gstopenwebrtc, but it
turned out this was not actually needed for webrtc bundling
support, as shown in webrtcbin. It also doesn't correspond
to any standards.
This is an API break, but nothing should actually depend on
this, at least not for its initial purpose.
Changes in rtpbin.c were reverted manually, to preserve some
refactoring that had occurred in the original commit.
Fixes#537
Bus message handler of tags checking unit test uses gst_message_parse_error()
in case of GST_MESSAGE_ERROR and GST_MESAGE_WARNING.
If gst_message_parse_error() is called in case of GST_MESSAGE_WARNING, assert occurs.
So modified to use gst_message_parse_warning() in case of GST_MESSAGE_WARNING.
Allow run some unit tests on Windows.
* Remove hardcoded path separator in whitelist env for Meson to choose
OS-specific separator automatically (i.e., ';' for windows and ':' for *nix)
* Add dependency explicitly for some test cases, otherwise plugins couldn't be
loaded on uninstalled environment of Windows.
gstreamer!55 makes some changes to how the `error-after` counter works
which breaks this test. This change makes the test not rely on the
ability to alter `error-after` at runtime and explicitly stops and
starts the harness before pushing data.
An alternative would be to add another argument to
`harness_rtpulpfecdec` to set `error-after` on construction but that's
slightly more long-winded. so I went for this approach instead.
Fixes#532, even though that's already closed.
The initial mission statement for this test was:
* demonstrate usage of the request-aux-* signals in rtpbin
* test the rtx elements
We have examples that serve the first use case, and better
(harnessed) tests for the second use case.
This test is slow and racy, it served its purpose but can now
be removed.
Fixes#533
When the EOS event is received, run all timers immediately and avoid
pushing the EOS downstream before this has been run. This ensures that
the lost packet statistics are accurate.
The teardown of the pads checks the refcount, but there are timers
inside the jitterbuffer that can push things, so if we're not lucky,
things could be pushed while the pads are being shut down. Putting the
jitterbuffer to NULL first avoids this.
Always wait with starting the RTCP thread until either a RTP or RTCP
packet is sent or received. Special handling is needed to make sure the
RTCP thread is started when requesting an early RTCP packet.
We want to wait with starting the RTCP thread until it's needed in order
to not send RTCP packets for an inactive source.

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.
