           Summary: sink->file is never reset for filesink elements, even
                    though pipeline goes to READY and back to PLAYING
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: HEAD CVS
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gstreamer (core)
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
        ReportedBy: frepe at bredband.net
         QAContact: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
     GNOME version: 2.13/2.14
   GNOME milestone: Unspecified


Please describe the problem:
If a filesink element is used at the end of a pipeline to store contents to
file, it should be possible to set the state of the pipeline to READY, change
the location property of the filesink element to a new file, and then set the
state of the pipeline to PLAYING again, all this in order to store content to
another file.

This does not work since the sink->file is never reset.

Steps to reproduce:
Run that tries to change the "location" property of a filesink element on a
pipeline in READY state.


Actual results:
The warning: "WARNING **: Changing the `location' property on filesink when a
file is open not supported." is given.

Expected results:
I would expect the filesink element to start storing content to the new file.

Does this happen every time?
Yes.
