GST_TAG_MUSICBRAINZ_SORTNAME is deprecated and we compile with

Original commit message from CVS:
* tests/check/elements/libvisual.c:
Test all libvisual plugins, not just the first one; this reproduces
bug #450336 quite easily. Looks like a problem with the 'jess'
visualisation.
Original commit message from CVS:
* tests/check/Makefile.am:
* tests/check/elements/.cvsignore:
* tests/check/elements/libvisual.c:
Add basic libvisual test case in an attempt to reproduce bug #450336.
Doesn't reproduce that bug, but some other crasher instead (invalid
free), at least with make elements/libvisual.forever and the bumscope
plugin on x86-64/gutsy. Leaving test disabled for now.
Original commit message from CVS:
* gst/volume/gstvolume.c: (volume_choose_func):
* tests/check/elements/volume.c: (GST_START_TEST):
Revert the latest change: floating point samples are allowed to
have any value, not only values in the range [-1,1]. Thanks to Andy
Wingo for noticing.
Also fix processing of int32 samples with volumes > 4 by making the
unity value smaller which prevents overflows.
Original commit message from CVS:
* gst-libs/gst/rtp/gstrtpbuffer.c:
* tests/check/libs/rtp.c:
Fix gst_rtp_buffer_set_csrc() and enable csrc-related unit test checks.
Original commit message from CVS:
Based on patch by: Haakon Sporsheim <haakon.sporsheim at tandberg com>
* gst-libs/gst/rtp/gstrtpbuffer.c:
Fix up GstRTPHeader helper struct so that compilers will not under
any circumstances add padding in between our fields, as currently
happens with MSVC on win32, because that would lead to us sending
out RTP payloads with broken RTP headers (#471194).
Fix assertion guards for gst_rtp_buffer_get_csrc() and _set_csrc().
* tests/check/Makefile.am:
* tests/check/libs/.cvsignore:
* tests/check/libs/rtp.c:
Add some simple unit tests for GstRTPBuffer. Some are disabled
because the code tested still needs fixing (set_csrc() does not work).
Original commit message from CVS:
* gst/volume/gstvolume.c: (volume_choose_func),
(volume_process_double), (volume_process_double_clamp),
(volume_process_float_clamp):

prevent weird effects.

* gst-libs/gst/pbutils/missing-plugins.c:
* gst-libs/gst/pbutils/missing-plugins.h:
* tests/check/libs/pbutils.c:
API: add gst_missing_*_installer_detail_new() convenience API so
that applications that know exactly what they're missing can request
installer detail strings for those items directly instead of having
to first create a dummy missing-plugin message and then get the
installer detail string from that. Fixes#470456.

Change the number of buffers used; 500 is too many and leads to
timeouts.
Original commit message from CVS:
* gst/audiorate/gstaudiorate.c: (gst_audio_rate_chain):
If we have a large (> 1 second) discontinuity, push a series of
smaller buffers rather than a single very large buffer. Avoids
unreasonably large single buffer allocations when encountering a
large gap.
* tests/check/elements/audiorate.c: (GST_START_TEST),

header.
Original commit message from CVS:
* Makefile.am:
* configure.ac:

Remove bogus check for libcheck, since we check for

anyway.

Implement dithering and noise shaping in audioconvert. By default now
TPDF dithering (and no noise shaping) will be used when converting
from a higher bit depth to 20 bit depth or smaller, otherwise
everything will be as it is now.
For the last audioconvert in a pipeline it would make sense to
use some kind of noise shaping, enabling it by default for all
conversions would give undesired results though. Fixes#360246.
* tests/check/elements/audioconvert.c: (setup_audioconvert),
(GST_START_TEST):
Adjust unit test for the new audioconvert.
Original commit message from CVS:
* gst-libs/gst/tag/tags.c: (gst_tag_freeform_string_to_utf8):
Don't pass trailing zeroes in fixed-size string arrays in ID3v1 tags
to utf8-validate; fixes recognition of ID3v1 tags in UTF-8 encoding
(#451707); also, output some debugging info when dealing with
freeform strings.
* tests/check/libs/tag.c: (GST_START_TEST), (tag_suite):
Add unit test for the above.
Original commit message from CVS:
* ext/vorbis/vorbisdec.c: (vorbis_dec_decode_buffer):
Skip empty buffers, but not empty header buffers. That way the original
vorbisdec unit test still passes (#451145); also, take into account
that those empty packets might carry a granulepos.
* tests/check/Makefile.am:
* tests/check/elements/vorbisdec.c:

Original commit message from CVS:
* tests/examples/seek/seek.c: (update_scale), (play_cb), (stop_cb),

Destroy and recreate parse-launch based pipeline after stop to be able
to play again. Reorder some code and add more comments.
Original commit message from CVS:
* tests/check/pipelines/oggmux.c: (validate_ogg_page), (is_video),
(eos_buffer_probe):
Add a test that ensures we set DELTA_UNIT on all non-header,
non-video buffers, if we have a video stream.
* ext/ogg/gstoggmux.c: (gst_ogg_mux_queue_pads),
(gst_ogg_mux_process_best_pad):
Move setting delta_pad to earlier, where we inspect all pads, so
that leading audio pages don't get DELTA_UNIT unset if they come
before the first DELTA_UNIT from video pages. Fixes the newly-added
test. Fixes#385527.
Original commit message from CVS:
* tests/check/pipelines/streamheader.c: (streamheader_suite):
Disable test_multifdsink_gdp_vorbisenc() on ppc64 since it
fails on the p5-ppc64 build bot and the failure looks like it is due
to the same issue as #348114, ie. a compiler bug.

Original commit message from CVS:

* tests/check/elements/videorate.c (test_more): Test that given
any incoming offsets, that videorate produces perfect offsets.
Original commit message from CVS:
* gst/audioconvert/audioconvert.c:
Add docs to the integer pack functions and implement proper
rounding. Before we had rounding towards negative infinity, i.e.
always the smaller number was taken. Now we use natural rounding,
i.e. rounding to the nearest integer and to the one with the largest
absolute value for X.5. The old rounding introduced some minor
distortions. Fixes#420079
* tests/check/elements/audioconvert.c: (GST_START_TEST):
Fix one unit test that assumed the old rounding and added unit tests
for checking signed/unsigned int16 <-> signed/unsigned int16 with
depth 8, one for signed int16 <-> unsigned int16 and one for the new
rounding from signed int32 to signed/unsigned int16.

* tests/check/libs/tag.c: (GST_START_TEST):
Add unit tests for replaygain tags in vorbis comments (closes#423055).

Change GStreamer marker prefix in detail string from 'gstreamer.net'

decoder/encoder detail a bit better, since not everyone will be
familiar with the GStreamer media type/caps system (but they better
enjoy nested itemized lists).
Original commit message from CVS:

(notgst_buffer_copy_fields_in_place), (gst_netbuffer_copy):
Fix copying of GstNetBuffer (would crash before, or at least lead to
invalid memory access, #410772), for now by copying the GstBuffer copy
code from the core over here so we can copy the GstBuffer fields on a
provided buffer instance (of type GstNetBuffer in this case). Would be
better to fix this with some support by the core though (and in the long
run change the broken GstBuffer/GstMiniObject copy semantics, #393099).
