Hi Piotr,

thank you for the report.

First, could you repeat this using current versions of the coda driver
and GStreamer? There are about 60 coda patches in mainline between v3.19
and v4.3, and some of them are quite relevant for the end-of-stream and
buffer handling. I think the relevant GStreamer EOS change went into
1.5.2.

Looks like the coda driver is constantly fed empty buffers, which don't
increase the bitstream payload level, and the PIC_RUN times out with a
bitstream buffer underflow. What GStreamer version is this?

That shouldn't happen anymore in recent kernels. In the past, repeated
reqbufs calls would leak buffers because the cleanup was only done on
close.

Please let me know if you can reproduce any of the issues with more
recent kernels and GStreamer 1.6.
