Well, yes. But it does seem very unlikely event or it would be a bug in playbin/gstreamer. I did a small patch [0] to do some measurements. From the moment we set the pipeline state to PLAYING, how long it took to call the callback where we setup GstAppSrc; And how long it takes to get the first frame queued.

Yes, I agree that _ref is better. Maybe even better would be to do g_object_add_weak_pointer() on decoder->appsrc/appsink as they should hold no meaning if the pipeline (playbin) does not exist anymore. > > +#endif > > gst_object_unref(decoder->pipeline); > > gst_object_unref(decoder->clock); > > decoder->pipeline = NULL; > > @@ -305,13 +314,79 @@ static gboolean handle_pipeline_message(GstBus *bus, > > GstMessage *msg, gpointer v > > return TRUE; > > } > > > > +#if GST_CHECK_VERSION(1,9,0) > > +static void app_source_setup(GstElement *pipeline, GstElement *source, > > SpiceGstDecoder *decoder) > > +{ > > + GstCaps *caps; > > + > > + /* - We schedule the frame display ourselves so set sync=false on > > appsink > > + * so the pipeline decodes them as fast as possible.

I can't see how. We have created the playbin here but we haven't started it yet. It should start after setting the pipeline to PLAYING below.

I did not find in the past. I just looked again and in the source code, the only header that exports that is gst-plugins-base/gst/playback/gstplay-enum.h which is not installed. So, I'll file a bug to get some feedback on why but in the meantime I'll create a #define for it. > Why is needed to disable? To save memory? It will prevent the playbin to do anything related to audio so, I would say it is more process optimization then what will be allocated. > Should we not disable other stuff like subtitles?

It will not as the signal could not be triggered before starting the pipeline. This chunk is mostly for documentation, one that sees it knows it is null till app_source_setup is called, but should be harmless to remove it. > Would be better to use some mutex+condition in order to wait > app_source_setup to set this value.

Not clear if we still own sink pointer here. We don't own it at this time.
