[gst-devel] How to send data to next elemnet before calling _chain()

[Chen, Weian]

The data I want to send is couple of bytes (some information of current element)  which will be used in next element's _setcap() funct. So we could not wait the gst_pad_push() function to send.

thanks,
Weian

Can you explain in a bit more detail what you want to do?

You normally should call gst_pad_push() to send data to the next
element in your pipeline - but that calls the chain function in that
next element, so it sounds like you're asking for something different?

What data do you want to send? Why do you want to avoid calling the
chain function when sending this data?
