Hello everyone, I am trying to do crossfade between 3 videos. It works fine when I do the same with 2, but when I put the 3rd something happens and the player displays only the first. Actually I use 2 videos, and I did a playlist such video1 -> video2 -> video2, where the 3rd time, I set the new starting time of the video2 object. video1 starts at 0, and its durations is dur1 I use an operator to handle the alpha channel, it starts at dur1 - dur_crossfade video2, starts at dur1 - dur_crossfade And the starting time of video 2 the third time is dur1 + dur2 - dur_crossfade. Maybe it's something wrong with the priority or start properties values, I am very new with GStreamer, I could make several mistakes. Thanks and regards, Rossana Here's the code: const gint dur_crossfade = 500; // Error handler static gboolean bus_call (GstBus *bus, GstMessage *msg, gpointer data) { ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: return TRUE; } static void on_pad_added (GstElement *element, GstPad *pad, gpointer data) { GstPad *sinkpad = NULL; GstElement * queue = (GstElement *) data; /* Ahora linkeo el pad de comp con sink pad */ g_print ("Dynamic pad created, linking queue\n"); sinkpad = gst_element_get_static_pad (queue, "sink"); gst_pad_link (pad, sinkpad); gst_object_unref (sinkpad); } GstElement * getBin(const gchar * nomBin, GstElement * &alfa1, GstElement *&smpte, GstElement * &color, gint transicion = 1) { GstElement * bin = gst_bin_new(nomBin); if (!bin) { g_printerr ("No se pudo crear el bin.
