  GStreamer | gst-plugins-good | Ver: 0.10.21
           Summary: v4l2src & ffmpeg cannot negociate format
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: 0.10.21
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gst-plugins-good
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
        ReportedBy: francois.forest at lri.fr
         QAContact: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
     GNOME version: Unspecified
   GNOME milestone: Unspecified


The following pipeline failed in negociating caps while it exists compatible
caps on each element pairs.
$ gst-launch-0.10  v4l2src ! ffmpegcolorspace ! video/x-raw-rgb ! xvimagesink
    ...
ERROR: from element /GstPipeline:pipeline0/GstV4l2Src:v4l2src0: Could not
negotiate format
Additional debug info:
gstbasesrc.c(2426): gst_base_src_start ():
/GstPipeline:pipeline0/GstV4l2Src:v4l2src0:
Check your filtered caps, if any

Hint: the same pipeline ending with element ximagesink or fakesink in place of
xvimagesink succeeds.
The same is true if we force fully defined caps between ffmpeg & ximagesink as
follows:
$ gst-launch-0.10 --gst-debug=v4l2src:3 v4l2src ! ffmpegcolorspace !
video/x-raw-rgb,width=320,height=240,bpp=32,depth=24,endianness=4321,red_mask=65280,green_mask=16711680,blue_mask=-16777216
! xvimagesink


Note: this report is an improved version of bugId 578500 which was set to
unconfirmed
