Problem with the same custom element multiple times

[Totoketchup]

Hi, thank you for your detailed answer.

The main problem is that I can't modify what the module entry is, so I can't send my GstBuffer to it. This eliminates the a) solution. Secondly, I can't modify what this module is doing with the raw data. This  eliminates the b). The c) is the solution I was thinking about yes :)
But when I have the timestamps information how can I give it to the new GstBuffer ?

ways, by just including the timestamp data in the round trip. This could be
any one of

a) Send the GstBuffer to the redundancy module, and it builds and returns a
GstBuffer with the new data and timestamps transferred over. (this is what
I would do).

b) Include the timestamps in the raw data you send to the redundancy
module, and have it return them in its callback.

c) Hold onto the original buffer and its data until the callback, associate
them somehow, and build a new GstBuffer using the saved data and the
callback data.  I would only recommend this if the redundancy module is an
opaque library with a bad interface (ie, no round trip of user data).
