Hyunjun Ko 5ab5113f6f vaapisink: keep handle_events flag except that if user want to set
When state of vaapisink is changed from PLAYING to NULL, the handle_events
flag is set to FALSE, and never recovered, and then event thread is never
going to run.

So we should allow to set the flag only when users try it.

Overview
--------

gstreamer-vaapi consists in a collection of VA-API based plugins for
GStreamer and helper libraries.

  * `vaapi<CODEC>dec' is used to decode JPEG, MPEG-2, MPEG-4:2, H.264
    AVC, H.264 MVC, VP8, VC-1, WMV3, HEVC videos to VA surfaces,
    depending on the actual value of <CODEC> and the underlying
    hardware capabilities.  This plugin is also able to implicitly
    download the decoded surface to raw YUV buffers.

  * `vaapi<CODEC>enc' is used to encode into MPEG-2, H.264 AVC, H.264
    MVC, JPEG, VP8, HEVC videos, depending on the actual value of
    <CODEC> (mpeg2, h264, etc.) and the hardware capabilities. By
    default, raw format bitstreams are generated, so the result may be
    piped to a muxer, e.g. qtmux for MP4 containers.

  * `vaapipostproc' is used to filter VA surfaces, for e.g. scaling,
    deinterlacing (bob, motion-adaptive, motion-compensated), noise
    reduction or sharpening. This plugin is also used to upload raw
    YUV pixels into VA surfaces.

  * `vaapisink' is used to render VA surfaces to an X11 or Wayland
    display. This plugin also features a "headless" mode (DRM) more
    suited to remote transcode scenarios, with faster throughput.


Features
--------

  * VA-API support from 0.29 to 0.38
  * JPEG, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, H.264 AVC, H.264 MVC, VP8, VC-1, HEVC and
    VP9 ad-hoc decoders
  * MPEG-2, H.264 AVC,H.264 MVC, JPEG, VP8 and HEVC ad-hoc encoders
  * OpenGL rendering through VA/GLX or GLX texture-from-pixmap + FBO
  * Support for EGL backend
  * Support for the Wayland display server
  * Support for headless decode pipelines with VA/DRM
  * Support for major HW video decoding solutions on Linux (AMD,
    Intel, NVIDIA)
  * Support for HW video encoding on Intel HD Graphics hardware
  * Support for VA Video Processing APIs (VA/VPP)
    - Scaling and color conversion
    - Image enhancement filters: Sharpening, Noise Reductio, Color
      Balance, Skin-Tone-Enhancement
    - Advanced deinterlacing: Motion-Adaptive, Motion-Compensated


Requirements
------------

Software requirements

  * GStreamer 1.9.x:
      libgstreamer1.0-dev (>= 1.9.x)
      libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev (>= 1.9.x)
      libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-dev (>= 1.9.0)

  * Renderers:
      DRM: libva-dev (>= 1.1.0), libdrm-dev, libudev-dev
      X11: libva-dev (>= 1.0.1)
      GLX: libva-dev (>= 1.0.3)
      Wayland: libva-dev (>= 1.1.0), libwayland-dev (>= 1.0.2)

Hardware requirements

  * Intel Eaglelake (G45)
  * Intel Ironlake, Sandybridge, Ivybridge, Haswell, Broadwell,
    Skylake, etc. (HD Graphics)
  * Intel BayTrail, Braswell
  * Intel Poulsbo (US15W)
  * Intel Medfield or Cedar Trail
  * Hardware supported by Mesa VA gallium state-tracker


Usage
-----

  VA elements are automatically plugged into GStreamer pipelines. So,
  using playbin should work as is.
  However, here are a few alternate pipelines that could be manually
  constructed.

  * Play an H.264 video with an MP4 container in fullscreen mode
  $ gst-launch-1.0 -v filesrc location=/path/to/video.mp4 ! \
      qtdemux ! vaapidecodebin ! vaapisink fullscreen=true

  * Play a raw MPEG-2 interlaced stream
  $ gst-launch-1.0 -v filesrc location=/path/to/mpeg2.bits ! \
      mpegvideoparse ! vaapimpeg2dec ! vaapipostproc ! vaapisink

  * Convert from one pixel format to another, while also downscaling
  $ gst-launch-1.0 -v filesrc location=/path/to/raw_video.yuv ! \
      videoparse format=yuy2 width=1280 height=720 ! \
      vaapipostproc format=nv12 height=480 ! vaapisink

  * Encode a 1080p stream in raw I420 format into H.264
  $ gst-launch-1.0 -v filesrc location=/path/to/raw_video.yuv ! \
      videoparse format=i420 width=1920 height=1080 framerate=30/1 ! \
      vaapih264enc rate-control=cbr tune=high-compression ! \
      qtmux ! filesink location=/path/to/encoded_video.mp4
