AW: is eos on shutdown needed when stopping a pipeline

[philippe renon]

Ok. So just stopping a pipeline is not always enough when recording a video to file.
We have a pipeline as such:

dx9screencapsrc monitor=0 cursor=true ! tee name=t
    t. ! queue ! timeoverlay ! autovideosink
    t. ! queue ! videoconvert ! x264enc tune=zerolatency tune=zerolatency bitrate=498 ! mpegpsmux ! filesink location=D:\capture.mpg
The produced capture.mpg file is readable with VLC but not with Windows Media Player.I am trying to understand why WMP can't play it.

Without the eos, the mov block will not be written (in the normal case) and the file will be unplayable    Von: gstreamer-devel [mailto:gstreamer-devel-bounces at lists.freedesktop.org]Im Auftrag von philippe renon

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 ?
