hi,
I am looking for a way to send some private data along with a buffer.
During data capture I get some metadata about capture settings and I
would like to store/analyze them later along with the data stream. I
tried to add a payload item to caps and put a GstBuffer there. But
this seems to be painful and I am afraid that it will cause
renegotiation as the content changes for each buffer. Has anyone been
doing something similar?
alternative (better approach) seems to be using a buffer subclass, right?
Attached is my current test. Its a bit hackish and fails. One thing I
was wondering is that fakesrc send buffer with caps=NULL. A bug?
