how to release the GstBuffer memory

[trinadh Pala]

Hello,

I am using these libraries, I do not find the    
gst_app_buffer_new in these libraries. I understand this may be in the gst/app/ library. i may end up mixing too many libraries, which is the proper way to do using QGst libraries?


-lQtGStreamer-0.10 \
        -lQtGStreamerUi-0.10 \
        -lQtGStreamerUtils-0.10 \

Thanks  and regards
Trinadh

Hi,

Here you will find the proper way:

http://users.design.ucla.edu/~acolubri/test/gstreamer/appsrc_filesink.c
/* used to inject a new buffer into the pipeline */
static void
inject_new_buffer_into_pipeline (ProgramData * data)
{
  guint size;
  gpointer raw_buffer;
  GstBuffer *app_buffer;
  GstElement *source;

  size = 80 * 60 * 4; // 80x60 pixels, 32 bpp.
  g_print ("Pushing a buffer of size %d\n", size);

  // Allocating the memory for the buffer.
  raw_buffer = g_malloc0 (size);

  app_buffer = gst_app_buffer_new (raw_buffer, size, g_free, raw_buffer);

  /* newer basesrc will set caps for use automatically but it does not really
   * hurt to set it on the buffer again */
  gst_buffer_set_caps (app_buffer, gst_caps_from_string (video_caps));

  /* get source an push new buffer */
  source = gst_bin_get_by_name (GST_BIN (data->sink), "testsource");
  gst_app_src_push_buffer (GST_APP_SRC (source), app_buffer);
}
