[gst-devel] Troubles with GStreamer

[Wes Miller]

I have a mixed bag of related problems all of which showed up together.  Can
someone help me with my first problem so I can see if the others are real?

To start, I had a stable, working gstreamer and plugins on my Fedora 12 box. 
I wrote and have been using a program that gst_parse_launch()-es two
(separate threads) simple video recorder pipeline (mjpeg camera saved to
matroska file and tee'd off to an appsink where I save off some of the
metadata).  These pipe run 1 minute then are stopped, torn down (unrefed,
etc), rebuilt and re-gst_parse_launched()-ed.  The only difference is a new
output filename for each iteration. The location property of the filesink is
set outside the gst_parse_launch().  And, FWIW, this is run in Qt and
doesn't seem to need a g_main_loop to execute.  I reuse the same instance of
gstreamer.

Last week I ran yum update and noticed that i got new gstreamer updates.  I
also yum installed gst-ffmpeg and yum updated gst-rtsp.  I was going to
start work on a new project where I needed rtsp streams.  I reran my
existing project and that's where all my troubles started.

It runs through the first iteration with no problems.  On the second pass I
get a bunch of GST_CRITICAL messages like these:

(<unknown>:7048): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_pad_new_from_template:
assertion `GST_IS_PAD_TEMPLATE (templ)' failed

(<unknown>:7048): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion
`G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed

(<unknown>:7048): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_pad_set_event_function:
assertion `GST_IS_PAD (pad)' failed

(<unknown>:7048): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_element_add_pad: assertion
`GST_IS_PAD (pad)' failed

(<unknown>:7048): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_object_ref: assertion `object
!= NULL' failed

(<unknown>:7048): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_caps_can_intersect: assertion
`GST_IS_CAPS (caps2)' failed

(<unknown>:7048): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_pad_push_event: assertion
`GST_IS_PAD (pad)' failed


I don't know how to trace a gst_parse_launch(0-ed stream so giving me that
information may be a good starting point.

One other detail, not sure it'll be any help, I added a videorate element
into my pipeline and it stopped working even before I got all those updates. 
Relevant?  Cause?


Thanks,

Wes
