GL: texture-target: rectangle vs texture-target: 2D

[Gottfried Haider]

Thanks for your message, Matt!

My pipeline already has a glcolorconvert after the glupload, followed
by a capsfilter element. But when I add "texture-target=2D" to the
capsfilter, the final (negotiated) caps for the file still look like
this:
"video/x-raw(memory:GLMemory), format=(string)RGBA, width=(int)640,
height=(int)359, interlace-mode=(string)progressive,
pixel-aspect-ratio=(fraction)1/1, framerate=(fraction)5000/167,
texture-target=(string)rectangle"

Any ideas what to try?

I've uploaded the pipeline plot [1][2] when attempting to play that
particular file, as well as the file itself [3]. This is macOS w/
GStreamer 1.8.3.

Cheers
Gottfried
