Kindly clarify.  Can we have a pipeline with some of its elements in PULL mode and  some of its elements in PUSH mode ?  lets say we have a pipeline as follows  gst-launch src ! B ! C ! D ! E ! sink   In which, D is the plugin in PULL mode and rest all plugins are in PUSH mode .  In this case , i guess the gst_pad_push() of plugin C is not dependant on gst_pad_push()  of plugin E as in between the plugin D itself pulls the data and the gst_pad_push() of plugin C  returns irrespective of wheather the gst_pad_push() of plugin E is done or not .  Is my above understanding correct ? Please clarify.  I am sorry if my understanding sounds wired.    Thanks and Regards,  Arnab <pre> The information contained in this electronic message and any attachments to this message are intended for the exclusive use of the addressee(s) and may contain proprietary, confidential or privileged information.
