From: Victor Toso <me@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
This patch fixes the avdec_h264 element not being present on
gstvideo_has_codec() which get all decoder elements from GstRegistry
and filter them on our GstCaps in order to get the ones for given
codec.
The issue is around the filtering. The current GstCaps for h264 is not
consider a subset of avdec_h264's capabilites and that will fiter this
element out of the list.
The proposed solution for that is to set `subsetonly` parameter from
gst_element_factory_list_filter() to false.
While at it, the cap "stream-format=byte-stream" is less useful now
because it isn't needed to play the stream - see 6fe88871240c53b8
In my system, our debug shows:
.. gstvideo_debug_available_decoders: From 228 video decoder elements,
- 4 can handle caps image/jpeg: jpegdec, nvdec, avdec_mjpeg, vaapijpegdec
- 3 can handle caps video/x-vp8: vaapidecodebin, vp8dec, avdec_vp8
- 4 can handle caps video/x-h264: vaapidecodebin, avdec_h264, nvdec, vaapih264dec
- 3 can handle caps video/x-vp9: vaapidecodebin, vp9dec, avdec_vp9
