           Summary: [rtspsrc] reduce or avoid (network) hang during
                    shutdown
    Classification: Desktop
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gst-plugins-good
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
        ReportedBy: mnauw at users.sourceforge.net

During state change to PAUSED and READY, rtspsrc sends PAUSE and TEARDOWN
respectively (if server supports), which might hang (for the duration of
configured tcp_timeout, default = 20s) due to network problems.

Subsequent patches arrange for:
* sending PAUSED (if done) in a separate (temporary) thread (i.e.
asynchronously)
(and if that one were to hang, it can then be interrupted by a subsequent going
to READY)
* a separate property that controls the timeout when performing TEARDOWN (or
allows to skip TEARDOWN altogether, as it is but marginally useful to do so if
immediately followed by closing connection).
