It is also based on N-1mixing, and does include some sort of synchronization on its pads (to make sure video frames with same timestamp will get mixed together). I used it to create my own plugin for other purpose, and it works quite fine.</DIV> <DIV>Regards,</DIV> <DIV>Al<BR></DIV> <DIV style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman, new york, times, serif"><BR> <DIV style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman, new york, times, serif">----- Message d'origine ----<BR>De : Rob Gil <rob.gil@live.com><BR>À : gstreamer-devel@lists.sourceforge.net<BR>Envoyé le : Mercredi, 15 Octobre 2008, 17h09mn 28s<BR>Objet : [gst-devel] CollectPads synchronization with request pads<BR><BR> <STYLE> .hmmessage P { margin:0px;padding:0px;} body.hmmessage { FONT-SIZE:10pt;FONT-FAMILY:Tahoma;} </STYLE> <BR>Hi,<BR><BR>I'm writing a mixer-type (N-to-1) plugin for GStreamer and using "adder" element as my example how to make one. The problem I am having currently is synchronization of input streams - adder is not even trying to synchronize anything, so if I feed it for example 5 perfectly time-synchronized streams from files it starts processing data before all the pads are negotiated. Below is a debug output of what is happening, sink2 gets negotiated just in time to make it to the mix, but sinks 3 and 4 get their requests only after _collected is already ran and first buffer pushed out. Any suggestions for an easy way to do synchronization?<BR><BR>Thanks,<BR><BR>Rob<BR><BR>$ gst-launch-0.10  -v filesrc location=input1.wav ! wavparse ! adder name=add ! wavenc ! filesink
