            Bug ID: 788520
           Summary: [Gstreamer]Condition always false
    Classification: Platform
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: 1.12.3
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gstreamer (core)
          Assignee: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: kr.ashish at samsung.com
        QA Contact: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
     GNOME version: ---

In 
File: gstdeviceprovider.c 
Function: gst_device_provider_unhide_provider
Line no.:717

Condition 'unhidden_name!=0' is always false resulting in function always
returning error.

---------------------
void
gst_device_provider_unhide_provider (GstDeviceProvider * provider,
    const gchar * name)
{
  GList *find;
  gchar *unhidden_name = NULL;

  g_return_if_fail (GST_IS_DEVICE_PROVIDER (provider));
  g_return_if_fail (unhidden_name != NULL);
----------------------

 g_return_if_fail: is used for verifying that the expression (usually
representing a precondition) evaluates to TRUE.
Hence, the control will never go down the function.

Solution : Remove statement 
  g_return_if_fail (unhidden_name != NULL);
