           Summary: gst_net_client_clock_start() always fails
    Classification: Platform
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: git
        OS/Version: Windows
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gstreamer (core)
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: lrn1986 at gmail.com
         QAContact: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
     GNOME version: ---


gst_net_client_clock_start() does this:

  socket = g_socket_new (G_SOCKET_FAMILY_IPV4, G_SOCKET_TYPE_DATAGRAM,
      G_SOCKET_PROTOCOL_UDP, &error);

  if (socket == NULL)
    goto no_socket;

  /* check address we're bound to, mostly for debugging purposes */
  myaddr = g_socket_get_local_address (socket, &error);

  if (myaddr == NULL)
    goto getsockname_error;

...

getsockname_error:
  {
    GST_ERROR_OBJECT (self, "get_local_address() failed: %s", error->message);
    g_error_free (error);
    g_object_unref (socket);
    return FALSE;
  }

g_socket_get_local_address() always fails on unbound sockets (and this socket
is unbound), so gst_net_client_clock_start() always fails.
