I have a really weird problem.
I connect a pipeline up as follows:
demux -> queue-> audio_sink
-> queue ->video_sink
And it runs for a while but then stops, when I look at my memory usage it seems to be huge and very close to 0 free.
If I then use mtrace (it works wuite well on an embedded system) I get loads, I mean loads of
'memory not freed addresses'
If I replace my sink with a fake sink I still seem to get a similar behaviour I was wondering how do I trace/debug memory allocation (buffer allocation) in GStreamer.
I have tried
export GST_DEBUG=GstBuffer:*
and it did not help
any advice/clues on how I can debug why my memory is being eaten, as I have removed my sink from the equation I can only presume mtrace is not as useful and therefore I need to be able to use Gstreamer debugging to help identify any memory leaks in my sink code
Hope someone can help
