AW: is eos on shutdown needed when stopping a pipeline

[Thornton, Keith]

Hi,
Eos is necessary for instance when you are writing to an mp4 container. Without the eos, the mov block will not be written (in the normal case) and the file will be unplayable

Betreff: is eos on shutdown needed when stopping a pipeline

Hi,

gst-launch has an eos on shutdown option to make sure that, amongst other cases, video captured to file are properly finalized.

My question is whether this eos is also needed when programatically stopping a pipeline ?
Will a stop do the eos or is it the responsibility of the application to send that eos in any case ?

Philippe.
