/**
 * SECTION:gstqtoverlay
 *
 * qmlgloverlay provides a way to render an almost-arbitrary QML scene within
 * GStreamer pipeline using the same OpenGL context that GStreamer uses
 * internally.  This avoids attempting to share multiple OpenGL contexts
 * avoiding increased synchronisation points and attempting to share an OpenGL
 * context at runtime which some drivers do not like.  The Intel driver on
 * Windows is a notable example of the last point.
 *
 * qmlgloverlay will attempt to retrieve the windowing system display connection
 * that Qt is using (#GstGLDisplay).  This may be different to any already
 * existing window system display connection already in use in the pipeline for
 * a number of reasons.  A couple of examples of this are:
 *
 * 1. Adding qmlgloverlay to an already running pipeline
 * 2. Not having any qmlgloverlay (or qmlglsink) element start up before any
 *    other OpenGL-based element in the pipeline.
 *
 * If one of these scenarios occurs, then there will be multiple OpenGL contexts
 * in use in the pipeline.  This means that either the pipeline will fail to
 * start up correctly, a downstream element may reject buffers, or a complete
 * GPU->System memory->GPU transfer is performed for every buffer.
 *
 * The requirement to avoid this is that all elements share the same
 * #GstGLDisplay object and as Qt cannot currently share an existing window
 * system display connection, GStreamer must use the window system display
 * connection provided by Qt.  This window system display connection can be
 * retrieved by either a qmlglsink element or a qmlgloverlay element. The
 * recommended usage is to have either element (qmlglsink or qmlgloverlay)
 * be the first to propagate the #GstGLDisplay for the entire pipeline to use by
 * setting either element to the READY element state before any other OpenGL
 * element in the pipeline.
 *
 * In a dynamically adding qmlgloverlay (or qmlglsink) to a pipeline case,
 * there are some considerations for ensuring that the window system display
 * and OpenGL contexts are compatible with Qt.  When the qmlgloverlay (or
 * qmlglsink) element is added and brought up to READY, it will propagate it's
 * own #GstGLDisplay using the #GstContext mechanism regardless of any existing
 * #GstGLDisplay used by the pipeline previously.  In order for the new
 * #GstGLDisplay to be used, the application must then set the provided
 * #GstGLDisplay containing #GstContext on the pipeline.  This may effectively
 * cause each OpenGL element to replace the window system display and also the
 * OpenGL context it is using.  As such this process may take a significant
 * amount of time and resources as objects are recreated in the new OpenGL
 * context.
 *
 * All instances of qmlgloverlay and qmlglsink will return the exact same
 * #GstGLDisplay object while the pipeline is running regardless of whether
 * any qmlgloverlay or qmlglsink elements are added or removed from the
 * pipeline.
 *
 * The Qml scene will run at the pace of incoming buffers.  One input buffer
 * will cause a render of one output buffer.  The timestamps on the input
 * buffers are used to drive the animation time.
