If playback is not active and it's streaming mode set latency to 0
so frames will not be synchronized with mm time.

This patch is a suggestion to improve current state.
Latency in display channel is the difference between multimedia time (mm)
at frame's arrival time and its timestamp, this latency is added to current
gstreamer's clock and attached to a gst buffer that is pushed into gstreamer's
so it will be played in sync at the right time.
Currently the mm time is being set when session begins, by the server with
400ms delay for buffering so as a result in streaming mode you feel at least
400ms latency.
But when playback starts mm time is set according to playback's timestamp at its
arrival time (so no 400ms delay anymore (a bug? maybe), there is another delay
which is usually smaller)
With this patch, when there is no playback, latency is 0 so buffer's timestamp
is set to only gst clock, means, it won't be synced.
Theoretically it should be safer to set buffer's timestamp to GST_CLOCK_TIME_NONE
if there is no playback but i tried it and it feels faster and simpler this way
and there were no issues by now.
