This reverts commit b0b4e286c8.
We agreed that the previous (pre-.35) behaviour is broken and a bug and the
current behaviour is correct, deterministic and allows the application to
handle stuff properly while the old behaviour can't be handled properly by
applications and just worked in some applications by luck.
The solution to the problem that was solved by relying on the old, broken
behaviour would be, to make decodebin2/playbin2 more aware of decoders and
improve the autoplugging of decoders by considering the caps supported by the
sink instead of just using something with the highest rank.
See bug #656923.
Fixes regression since 0.10.33 where sinks that can cope with non raw
caps or custom caps are not autoplugged if there's a sink configured
with the properties video-sink and audio-sink which cannot handle
the stream. This change checks for compatibility on the configured one
and use it if success. Otherwhise it tries with the found factories.
Only log in debug log for now, since the check is a bit
half-hearted, its purpose is mostly to make sure people
use gst_filename_to_uri() or g_filename_to_uri().

When we don't have specific {audio|video|text}-sink properties, don't
set them on playsink when reconfiguring.
If we do that, we end up setting the previous configured sink to
GST_STATE_NULL resulting in any potentially pending push being returned
with GST_FLOW_WRONG_STATE which will cause the upstream elements to
silently stop.

This is especially needed when switching between a non-sparse and sparse
video stream, see bug #537382. It also lowers the time needed for switching
between streams a bit.
Before playbin2 would use different selectors for raw audio and
compressed audio (and the same for video) and used different
pads from playsink. This made the involved logic much more
complex and was not implemented completely in playsink, which
made it impossible to support files with a compressed and
uncompressed stream that is support by the sink.
playbin2 handles raw/non-raw streams the same now and the
decision is left to playsink, which now can also handle
caps changes from raw to non-raw and the other way around.
Fixes bug #632788.
In addition to ensuring that an element we want to select in
autoplug-select can enter the READY state, we also now check if it can
accept the caps we wish to plug it for. This is handy for sinks that
need to perform a probe to figure out whether they can actually handle a
given format.
Add "source-setup" signal for convenience and discoverability. No need
to figure out "notify::source", look up the notify callback signature,
then do an g_object_get() to get the source element..

This lock is taken when activating a group, which could result in
calling the autoplug-continue callback, which also needs this lock
to access the sinks.
See bug #642174.
Don't build merge the caps of all sinks but check them one-by-one
until one supports the caps. Also get reffed caps from the sinkpads
instead of a writable copy and add debug output if a sink claims to
support ANY caps.
Streamsynchronizer excepts to see stream-changed msg for all streams, but to
arrange for this, video and subtitle streams need to be decoupled by means
of queues (due to pad blocks that may occur).
Fixes#626463.
Fixes spurious errors that happen after an error and playing a working
stream afterwards or signals that are emitted for non-active groups.
Fixes bug #624266.
This reverts commit 9d7538247f.
If the DVD subpicture caps are not part of the raw caps, uridecodebin
doesn't qualify resindvdbin as raw source and plugs decodebins, which
causes broken DVD playback because of bugs elsewhere.
This change was originally added to only expose supported, raw subtitles,
e.g. if the subtitle sink did not support DVD subpictures but a converter
to some supported format exists. It's not very important right now because
we have nothing (that is autoplugged) to convert from plaintext/pango-markup
or DVD subpictures to something else.
Fixes bug #623583.
Otherwise the uridecodebin will be still a child of playbin2 and
its signals will still be connected. In future state changes this
will then emit unrelated signals that will confuse playbin2 or,
even worse, cause crashes and assertions.
Fixes bug #623318.
Move the convert_frame function to playsink and make it part of the API. This is
in preparation to add the convert_frame signal to playsink.
See #620279
For this add subtitle encoding properties to playsink and subtitleoverlay
and update the values in the containing elements.
Also update the font description in textoverlay or the used renderer
element if it is changed during playback.
Fixes bug #610310.
This reverts commit 7335ce5d3e.
Support abusing the uri property to configure the next uri to play
outside of the about-to-finish handler for the time being after all.
We also shouldn't use thread private structures for this, since it
should be possible to block the thread that emitted about-to-finish
while the main thread sets the uri property. See #607226.
Changing the URIs in a state > READY results in unexpected behaviour,
i.e. the new URIs are only used after the current track has finished.
Fixes bug #607226.
This is necessary because the sinks don't notice the group switches
and the decoders/demuxers have a different running time than the
sinks.
Fixes bug #537050.
Just counting how many messages were sent and how many were received
is not good enough because they might've been duplicated (e.g. by the
visualization audio tee). Comparing the sequence numbers should give
better results in that case.
Otherwise the async state change from READY->PAUSED of the
uridecodebins will take playbin2 from PLAYING->PAUSED again
during gapless group switches.
Fixes bug #602000.
During a group switch return the cached duration of the old group
because the old group still didn't finish playback. If we have no
cached duration return FALSE.
Fixes bug #585969.
Make sure, to only "simulate" subtitle no-more-pads if it was still
pending and also handle errors in the subtitle pipeline as warnings
after the subtitles prerolled.
Don't set the suburidecodebin to READY after errors, handle_message
will usually be called from the streaming thread and doing that
from there is obviously not a good idea.
Now the caps property isn't set anymore for the subtitle caps
but instead in the autoplug-continue signal it is detected
if the caps belong to a supported subtitle stream.
This makes automatic use of newly installed plugins.
First of all, make sure that suburidecodebin never
errors out because of not-linked in case external subtitles
are used but then subtitles are disabled.
And then make sure that external subtitles always start from
the correct position and are not racing until EOS if they
get unselected and selected again.
This will make sure that no subparse is ever plugged and subtitleoverlay,
that subpicture streams are handled the same was as subtitles and that
subtitle renderers are used if available.
Fixes bugs #595123, #570753, #591662, #591706.
