           Summary: dashdemux: restarting not-linked stream is broken
    Classification: Platform
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: git
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gst-plugins-bad
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: thiagossantos at gmail.com
         QAContact: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
     GNOME version: ---


When a stream is not-linked dashdemux interrupts downloading it until a
reconfigure event is received.

As it interrupts it immediately, the downstream demux might be left with a
partial fragment which is an inconsistent state. If the stream is restarted it
should make the demuxer flush its pending data before accepting the new
fragment.

Another option is to have dashdemux only stop on fragment boundaries.
