           Summary: Video decoder could (should ?) return EOS when it has
                    pushed buffers past the limits of the segment.
    Classification: Platform
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: git
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gst-plugins-base
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: mathieu.duponchelle at epitech.eu
         QAContact: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
     GNOME version: ---


Easy way to reproduce the unwanted behaviour:

GST_DEBUG=*libav*:5 gst-launch-1.0 gnlurisource uri=file:///anything/with/h264
inpoint=0 duration=5000000000 caps=video/x-raw ! xvimagesink qos=false 2>&1 |
grep "Received new data of size"

I've got a simplistic patch which I'll attach after, which doesn't take the
rate into account, but shows what I would like to see happen (past 5 seconds,
the decoder returns EOS which ends up stopping the pipeline way sooner, in my
case with HD samples, decoding speed is roughly equal to playback speed, and I
end up waiting way too much time for my liking :)

I suppose there might be a very good reason for my patch not to be correct
(apart from the rate considerations), but I have a hard time figuring it out.
