  GStreamer | gst-ffmpeg | Ver: 0.10.5
           Summary: ffmpegdec leaks memory when gst_ffmpegdec_open is not
                    called
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: 0.10.5
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gst-ffmpeg
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
        ReportedBy: sh.yotam at gmail.com

     GNOME version: Unspecified
   GNOME milestone: Unspecified


Please describe the problem:
Memory leaks from any ffmpeg decoder element which is created via the GStreamer
element factory but not set into an actual pipeline and have its setcaps
function called (for example).

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create an element of any ffmpeg decoder element
2. Don't link it anywhere or set it to a different state
3. Unref the element


Actual results:
Memory leaks on the allocation of ffmpegdec->context and ffmpegdec->picture.

Expected results:


Does this happen every time?


Other information:
The problem is that the memory allocation is not parallel to the de-allocation
(and relying on the ffmpegdec->opened flag is wrong).
