Add support for adding tags to the metadata. with some standard keys, this
should make it possible to describe what the metadata refers to. We should be
able to use this information to decide if a transformation destroys the metadata
or not.
lseek() returns the offset if successful, and this is != 0 and
does not indicate an error. And if it does actually fail, don't
return FALSE (0) as an int, but -1. None of these things are
likely to have made a difference, ever. I don't think the offset
seek can ever actually happen, the current file position and the
current offset should always be increased in lock step, unless
there was an error in which case we'd just error out.
After a writer has written to its reserved write location, it can only make the
location available for reading if all of the writers with lower locations have
finished.
Fix a race where the reader would see the updated the tail pointer before the
write could write the data into the queue. Fix this by having a separate reader
tail pointer that is only incremented after the writer wrote the data.
Rename gst_base_transform_suggest to gst_base_transform_reconfigure_sink because
that is what it does. Also remove the caps and size because that is not needed.
Rename gst_base_transform_reconfigure to gst_base_transform_reconfigure_src.
Remove some old unused code in capsfilter.
Flesh out the transform method. Add a type and extra info to the transform
function so that implementation can transform the metadata.
Remove the copy function and replace with the more generic transform.
Always call the propose_allocation method and provide a default implementation
that passes the query on in passthrough mode so that subclasses can also call
this. Also pass if the transform is in passthrough mode so that the
implementation can adjust its algorithm.
Make it possible to also implement non-inplace fixate functions. Let the fixate
function make the caps writable when needed because some fixate functions might
not need to modify the caps.
Make it possible to configure a GDestroyNotify and user_data for
gst_memory_new_wrapped() this allows for more flexible wrapping of foreign
memory blocks.
Remove the link functions and always start the pad task on the srcpad. If
applications need to autoplug they can put a blocking probe on the srcpad like
they would with any other element.
