           Summary: fakesrc: the "pattern" property can be set but it is
                    never used
    Classification: Platform
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: 1.4.3
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gstreamer (core)
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

     GNOME version: ---


The "pattern" property of fakesrc can be set, but it never actually used in the
code; even when filltype==FAKE_SRC_FILLTYPE_PATTERN the code only uses
src->pattern_byte, not the pattern passed from the user.

Maybe there was the idea to add support for arbitrary user-defined patterns but
the implementation was never completed.

Should the property be removed?
